It was recently reported in the news that Gardaí are to clamp down on the tradition of having a few pints outside Kavanagh's (aka The Gravediggers) pub in Glasnevin.

We wish to highlight the inherent unfairness of this to the authorities and add that the same laws are not enforced outside countless amounts of pubs across the city.

The Gravediggers is an institution. A bastion of Irish culture. In family ownership for literal centuries. Treating its patrons with the same indifference that those of other pubs popular for alfresco pints are treated should be encouraged. It's not like we have that many sunny days in this city anyway!
