❝It’s just ridiculous, here we are again looking at businesses on the quay damaged by this, and it’s a national disgrace

“You’ll hear a lot of talk over the next week about flood barriers for Enniscorthy, but essentially we just have to put our own homemade flood defences in place.”

“We were lucky enough, all it did was disrupt the family Christmas, and then we lost a day’s business on Stephen’s Day. It’s the people whose homes are flooded I feel most sorry for and the pubs that really need the business.”The Enniscorthy flood-relief scheme has been promised for nearly a decade and yet no progress has been made.

This has been a source of huge frustration for the residents and representatives of Enniscorthy who were expecting an update on the project this month.
