Ashamed (disgusted really)

I think the Sunday headlines in the Irish Independent yesterday make me feel ashamed to be Irish. Sean Fitszpatrick gets 7 million written off and there are 29 known sucides due to financial difficuties.

I do agree with you but I find it really disgusting that the likes off Seanie and his cronies will walk away.

And you should be.
Can I ask though.....

How many letters have you written or phone calls have you made to your elected representatives to express your disgust?

Until people start acting and believing that they can help change, nothing will be done.

Numerous. I think the electoral system needs to be changed. The way it works at the moment people are elected because they attended funerals!
