For the sake of your children, Ireland!, please wake up and stop being distracted by 'Strictly Dancing' this and ' I am a Celebratey' that.
The main issue is getting our country back from people who don't care about the country or its citizens.
It is likely that banks and lending societies will up their mortgage rates soon; meanwhile, we learn that Ceann Comhairle John O'Donoghue spent a six-figure sum on holidays and trips abroad that we, the Irish people, paid for. Officers in local government jobs can take a 'leave of absence', start up in some entirely different career, and return without a care to their old jobs if they get bored. Dole payments may well be reduced. Yet judges defy openly any attempt to reduce their salaries. There is unrest, but it is confined to hard gossip over pints in safe, snug boozers. The Irish people seem paralysed in the face of their own ripping them off. Now it's not the 'dreadful' English doing it, it's other Irish men. Are we sickened into stupidity by the realisation that our own family is taking money out of our pockets? We have no scape-goat. We have only ourselves. And this dilemma terrifies us.
"Where do these ignorant feckers think we are going to get the money from to pay for all of this?"
WE have to pay........ because the moneylenders upon whom we depend are about to pull the plug.
More than €40 million is being borrowed each day...we DON'T HAVE any money.
Ireland's situation is like borrowing off everyone in the bar for the next pint.
We HAVE to stop drinking.
.
The feckin government is acting like scared rabbit, by raising taxes on every thing it and the shabby greens propose.
Yesterday we read of the carbon fuel tax that will be put not just on auto fuels but even on the humble briquette, rates on houses,and water rates etc lowering of social benefits across the board.
Where do these ignorant feckers think we are going to get the money from to pay for all of this?
It is time we stood up and said Enough is a enough and that time is now, it is time that the fighting spirit for fair play is brought to their attention!
We need to show those f'k'rs THAT WE THE PEOPLE ARE THE MASTERS OF OUR OWN DESTINY
Lads we cannot now sit around waiting for a general election - that time is past and belongs to the lemmings.
None of this has stopped John O'Donoghue, Ceann Comhairle, running up six-figure expenses on little trips abroad with his spouse. One law, etc.
Ahem may have swollowed the media propaganda whole but everyone else knows a class war
when they see one brewing. Wake up ireland before it is to late.
The lines are clear and it is here.
If the rich are to blame , then they can pay. If they don' t like that, then they can F**K off and take their
hypocrit politicans with them.
get your head out of the sand pal...
