I wonder will the other citizens of the eu view this astonishing about turn by us as a group of people who, after making an honest mistake, are now ready to build and embrace the european ideal for the good of the continent or a bunch of ponces in dire straights ready to try anything to get back on terms and ingratiate themselves with the commision.
Either way it does'nt matter. The eu gave us the chance to put our economy and country in order - what should really shame us all is that the same crooks and bad housekeepers both in government and in business are still running the shop.

Democracy has given us 15 years of a corrupt government, democracy gave us a no vote because the people believed the lies of one side, democracy has now given us a yes vote because they now believe the other side. Wait 10 minutes and they will probably change their minds again.

The democratic unions of both the public and private sectors are going to really screw up this country over the next few months. Can we all say a big hello to the IMF because they are on their way and this country is going to get the biggest shake up of it's existence. The public sector won't know what hit them and the private sector will be taxed out of existence.

This country is too small to change from it's Civil War politics, it's voters can be bought by corrupt political parties. The word "resignation" has been erased from the dictionary. Business and Political moral bankruptcy is the standard practice.

I have moved my money out of the country because what's coming down the line will not be very pretty.

quarryman, I've disagreed with you in the past but feel compelled to say I agree with your last post.
I fear that a chasm that could be deeper and potentially more damaging than even the civil war has opened up in a suspiciously short space of time. It seems as if this wretched government and those lame dicks in opposition are content to stand aside and see what happens while everybody else in Dublin with an ounce of credibility has turned away until the bodies have been removed.

Good stuff lads Wink

. I suppose in theory it is possible to have a third vote. As the argument now stands at one all. The Lisbon agreement may still never get going as the Czech`s have problems with it. If it is not done and dusted by May then the Brits may get a say providing the Tory's get in, which is most likely. All bets are off as to which way the UK public will vote. Ho Hum.

I would think that a small country like Ireland <population wise> would be better off under a big umbrella but to say such things like, "We want to be in the hart of Europe" etc is delusions of grandeur me thinks. The Lisbon vote may well have been the last time that Ireland could have any influence over most matters european. IMHO we in Ireland will be subject to the charity of the big boys. The Lisbon agreement is good for Europe, but not necessarily good for Ireland.

As to where to keep my money..... Chance would be a fine thing. Smile

For some reason they seem to be shying away from Blair, he's a very busy man at the the moment coining it in,maybe he won't be able to spare the time.
