With all the doom and gloom around including the seemingly endemic lack of responsibility and culture of impunity at leadership levels in so many sectors that has unnerved so many of us across the country, I thought the self-effacing honesty, lack of ego, forgiveness and strength of the 79 year old priest Father Mick Sinnott following his release from kidnappers in the Phillippines during the week, was uplifting and a salutary reminder to all of us about the real values of humankind and what being Irish should be all about. This is a value, a leadership example and a strong communications message worth holding on to.

'They won't kidnap me again, I'm too old, perhaps somebody younger'
