Anglo Irish Bank is a problem.
And now €uro Funds are getting used
to save these banks and the mess.

It's an insane amount of money,something like €66,000,000,000 they reckon, for a population of 4,000,000.

We are going to have the most savage of cuts and a very very long winter of discontent.

It's the credit-crunch, only supersized. We went mad building houses and selling them to one another. Now we've about 300,000 too many houses that aren't worth a lot.

Here's an indicator of how crazy it got; land in parts of Dublin was the most expensive in the world.

Have you no shame? (well, okay, I don't know who Lord Haw-Haw is either)

William Joyce (April 24, 1906 – January 3, 1946), nicknamed Lord Haw-Haw, was a fascist politician and Nazi propaganda broadcaster to the United Kingdom during the Second World War. He was hanged for treason by the British as a result of his wartime activities.

Joyce was born on Herkimer Street in Brooklyn, NY [2] to a Protestant mother and an Irish Catholic father who had taken United States citizenship. A few years after his birth the family returned to Galway, Ireland. He attended the Jesuit St Ignatius College in Galway from 1915 to 1921. Unusually for Irish Roman Catholics, both Joyce and his father were strongly Unionist

You are a complete idiot. If you don't know about the country and can only come up with some skank who was on a TV show dont comment.

What a bullsh*t statement.

Ireland is 10 times better than countries like America,

Yes it doesn't have the big cities, the massive movies, the epic Real World etc

But it's got far friendlier people and a better atmosphere than places like London, LA, Iraq and I was going to say Australia but Idk about them.

Tbh, I'd rather live in a place like that than somewhere were everyone is busy and bitter all the time, I haven't been to London but I heard it's pretty much like that.
