Political correctness gone mad! Josepha Madigan has called for the Newspaper 'The Kerryman', to change its name to a gender neutral name.
Where does the madness stop?
Independent TD for Kerry, Michael Healy Rae said: 'To be honest, I wouldn't agree with it, I think this is political correctness gone mad'.
"Some people go on with this 'political correctness' in the hope of it being seen as popular amongst people, particularly women, because they might be offended.
"I've never once in my life heard of a lady come in and say 'this is an awful heading, The Kerryman newspaper. This is political correctness gone mad. And I think that government ministers at the minute, be they senior or junior, have better things to be worried about.
"I think the next thing we'll have to change will be that the title of Ceann Comhairle in the Dáil will have to change, the Cathaoirleach of the Seanad will have to change and the 'manhole' in the ground by the local authority will have to be called a 'personhole'. It is absolute balderdash of the worst type."
Please sign and share this National Petition to stop this madness and keep the newspaper name 'the Kerryman'.
