    Here we go again, when will the people ever learn.

    Government says they are broke, then they hawk state assets to their private sector mates for peanuts.

    I just seen on TV, the UK post office is to be sold, same thing, high costs. What a load of tatter, I was in a UK post office last week, it was queued out the door.

    So I tell you what, I might buy Dublin Airport, well at least put in a bid. (I know all the handshakes, don't worry about that).

    The asset will then be stripped, services cut to threads and prices will rocket.

    You 'ave been warned.

    Michael O'Leary is going to buy the whole country...and to be honest I hope he does. He seems to be the only person that would do something to stop this 'recession'.

    No, that'd ruin the carefully crafted illusion of there being any kind of substance to this thread.

    So, when're they getting these rockets at Dublin Airport? I hope Ryanair's got nothing to do with them.

    Ever heard of Dublin Port, sold for nothing, including the 2.5 billion worth of land.
