When Scotland became bankrupt over its failed endeavours and economy it went cap in hand to london and the UK was formed, if this country goes down the tube would ireland ever do the same???

Overheal

No. Never. Are you insane?

Davidius

Not a chance.

International Monetary Fund steps in
And the bright young people leave, that's what happens

Orange69

The question you should be asking is will the UK have to adopt the euro...

Random

If the UK goes bankrupt we'll be able to buy them out for a euro!

If we go bankrupt, we'll just push the EU to give us more money by pretending we'll pass the lisbon treaty if they do.

Bob the Builder

We'll take irish back as well... they are of no use to ye now, except the fact that they own everything worth money over there, except the queen, but we don't want her.

Onikage

No. We will unearth the corpse of Michael Collins, reanimate him with the last of our beer money and send him to London on a cyborg killing and plundering spree. Simple, really.

Are you talking about the act of Union of 1707 when Scotland joined the UK? If not, you are talking out your hat op.

It would be great,the NHS would take over the HSE and would would all be happy Paddy's again.

galwayrush

Maybe we should join the UK for 4-5 years, when all the motorways and railways are finished at their expense, we can leave.:pac:

Cpaw

I think its a great idea, this country is fooked I tell ye. We need to latch on to the UK for support.

No, unlike Scotland, we have we can support ourselves, Ireland has been through harder times then this and it'll survive this as well, I don't know why people are of the opinion that Ireland has falling into oblivion, this Reccesion will blow over eventually just like the Wall Street Crash and the Oil Crisis, We just have to pull together and destory the single most evil thing in this country that is ruining it. FIANNA FAIL and then we can focus on Gangland crime and Health Care as well as the economy

America seems to be in the sh!ter.
Shouldn't it happen to them too?

If you may think people are saying no because they want to remain Irish and not British, then take the neutral view of America being ruled by London again.

So
Hells
no.

scotland still maintains its distinct culture and legal system while having the benefits of being under the UK umbrella. The last poll for supporting an independent scotland was something like less than a third.

RBS/HBOS banking crisis, bailout by UK taxpayers certainly the Scots were happy, SNP vote fell, Labour whose vote was on the decline in Scotland managed to win a key by election as a result.

Yeah. Sterling is really strong right now.
It was a bad idea to adopt the Euro.
