Imagine if we could visually see the queue for #Autism services for children in Ireland??
Up to & beyond 3 years of waiting.. but because we can't see the queue we're not as outraged as we should be.

It's interesting how airport delays seem to engage our politicians more than delays in accessing our public health service.
