Matt Cooper just said that there was an Article in the Irish Times in '06 chastising the German government on how they were running their economy and that they should have been running it more like the Irish one!! :lol:
Tony Killeen making a cunt of himself on the last word now. All the decisions they made were the right decisions at the time :rolleyes:
One of the most worrying things about this thread is that on this evidence, Sid is a hopeless optimist.
My weakness is that I always try and talk up the economy. I lfocus on the positives a bit too much probably.

It will pass because there’ll be no other choice now the boys are here. General election in the new year.
Will we get to the new year without an election WTB ?? I think FF is about to split for the budget, the greens are only drawing their money at this stage has anyone heard anything from any of them

Channel 4 and BBC both leading with this story. Dick Roche about to appear on Channel 4.

He is on at half seven. I am sure Dick will have something clever, smug and patronising to say anyway.
Speaking of which, did you hear Nigel Farage on the last word? What a cunt.
Nope. Heard most of the show today but didn’t catch him. When was he on? Will check it up online. Was hoping Cooper would take a harder line with that fooker from DAA trying to defend terminal building and its cost.
