1945, not 1922.
My father was a member of the Palestrina choir that sung at his inauguration. He often spoke of it and was only 10 at the time. We are burying him tomorrow, rest your voice Dad.x
Sean T was a great man,he deserved to be President and opposed the Treaty of 1922 like Dev and a true patriot unlike Collins.
Collins said the Treaty would be a stepping stone to a republic. What ended up happening? The Free State became a republic. Had Collins survived he would have achieved just what Dev did.
Church and state too close-not good
Yeah its going so much better in Ireland now that the Church has been betrayed... not.
