Ambiguity[edit]

"Des Hanafin was born in Thurles, County Tipperary in 1930. Born into a political family, Hanafin's father was a Fianna Fáil councillor for North Tipperary County Council and prior to that had been a member of the Irish Republican Brotherhood and an elected Sinn Féin councillor before independence."

As it stands, that says that DH's father was born into a political family. But surely the phrase is meant to describe DH himself? If so "born into a political family" ought to be incorporated into the previous sentence. Harfarhs (talk) 23:12, 20 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
