Sat 04 Apr 2007More passion and less of Mr Nice Guy, BertieHaving been sick for three weeks has left me seriously cranky, I fear. It was nothing life-threatening, and thank you for your concerned e-mails, notes and phone calls. But I am still cranky, writes Breda O'Brien.What is annoying me? It's election posters. I haven't actually seen the damage the Labour Party has done to two perfectly good sentences, but I suspect it will be enough to cause my inner English teacher to grind her teeth when I do. However, it is the Bertie posters that really get to me.
