According to today's Irish Times, "in Northern Ireland a total of 5,142 blue badges issued to those with severe mobility problems and which give entitlement to parking concessions were registered to dead people."

 

Well fair enough, say I. There ain't no mobility problems more severe than being dead and none are more entitled to parking concessions than this immobile group. On second thoughts, are these the same 5,142 who vote 'early and vote often' in every Northern Ireland election?
