[Leica] IMG: Pink & Politics at a bus stop

[Douglas Barry]

While it used to be said that politics is show business for ugly people, the 
trend here in Ireland is towards the more pulchritudinous of the fairer sex. 
The new 30% sex quota passed in a 2012 act of the Dail is the driver to 
break up the wall of suited male candidates that normally try to titivate 
the Irish public.

With a general election in the offing on the 26th of this month, the smiling 
posters have gone up everywhere, and even the politicians are mingling with 
the ordinary public by appearing at bus stops. There's a slight smear of 
pink here to enliven the dullness.
