Almost....speechless......

So the Governor of the Central Bank ( who he ? , or better still , where WAS he for the past 10 years ? ) , anyway whoever he is or wherever he was during the obscene housing boom , in his WISDOM , he appears to have come to the conclusion that the best way to rescue his greedy banker mates is to make sure that EVERYONE pays for his ineptitude and his pals greed by insisting that each home now stumps up € 1000 per annum irrespective of size of dwelling (apparently NOT including second or HOLIDAY homes , as these have already been levied at the magnificent sum of € 200 per annum in the so-called budget .)
This man , who played Stan Laurel to the Financial REGULATOR'S , Oliver Hardy , for the enjoyment of those who were driving ''a coach and four '' through every piece of financial and moral code imaginable , giving us , the fools ( you don't mind being called a 'fool' now do you ) , the impression that all was in order , the 'fundamentals ' were strong and occasionally , for show , tut .tut. tutting . at some minor infringement of the 'rules' by the greedy ones .
Notice how Nationalism and Moral Codes are suddenly back on the agenda .'' We are all in this together '' is the new mantra , '' we all must feel the pain '' is the cry , I have already paid my 'levy' on my pension , which , incidentally ,decreased in real value over the past 10 years because our society had become 'a high value ' society and people of low worth were not welcomed . I wonder will the pension of our high ranking civil servants , such as the Regulator , or the Chief of the Central Bank ,be eroded by abnormal inflation .......???? So I have already paid twice over and many , many , people are even worse off.......but our high ranking politicians and our permanent Government of over-paid ''Sir Humphries'' will be OK

GOD BLESS IRELAND , SAY the HEROES.....
