We most do something. This is something. Let's do it.
Securocrats love a good old terrorist outrage to result in pointless spending on whatever they are selling. They won't let this opportunity go to waste.
Fine Gael's law and order zeal, will enevitably result in a UK style Cobra committee, with politicians having input into security. (Which is more frightening than terrorism itself). https://www.rte.ie/news/2017/0604/880181-london-reaction/
Very few people die in the UK from terrorism (in particular in comparison to the 1969-94 period). But it won't stop silly ideas being proposed:
1) emergency plans.
2) cctv
3) armed gardai
4) training for civil servants (aka days off)
5) National ID
6) deportations
7) stripping of citizenship
8) Internet oversight
9) shut down dark web
10) anything else?
