No, not just Irish politicians...everyone. Try using the 'STAR' format to reduce your 'waffle'. It can be useful for putting a logical structure on examples or stories you have to tell such as in a job interview.
Situation: describe the situation or problem.

Task: describe the tasks that the situation required.
