    Get ready to be castigated immediately.....thats just speculation, no way European banks could possibly force the Irish people to pay them back. No No NO.... the Irish people are going to do the correct thing and pay these guys back, we will do this by political consensus in advance of an election.
    You see it's the democratic will of the people, simply no question of being forced. Move along no story here.!!!!!

    ah ffs
    Guido has obtained the list of foreign Anglo-Irish bondholders as at the close of business tonight. These are the people whom Dublin’s politicians really seem to care about

    The people the Dublin politicians care about are the IRISH bondholders whose names havent been released yet!!!!!!!!!!

    Hmm Goldman Sachs. And we have Peter Sutherland telling us how we need Austerity measures and need to cut the number of Universities...

    Absolutely no conflict of Interest there. Whatsoever.

    Also Rothschild has been advising the Government on fiscal policy.

    No wonder St Lenihan doesn't want to burn the foreign bondholders!

    I presume it's these same bond holders that we are now going begging to to keep us afloat with our 20bn annual defecit?

    This swindle has been apparent for months and mentioned on previous threads
    So what you're saying is that we are the real heroes of Europe? :) I mean Germany is getting the praise for bailing out Greece but in actuality the irish tax payer is bailing out private businesses and national banks on a pan European scale! All this selflessness and we still find the money to contribute to the Greek bailout, we're some country. Oh where are we getting all this money? Well we're borrowing it from similar sources to the bond holders we are paying back. Private debt, regardless on whose it was, should never have been nationalised onto the Irish tax payer. If Germanys banks invested in Anglo, they did so to make a quick buck. They took a risk and they lost (this risk was always greater than investing in Ireland through sovereign lending. Anglo shouldve gone to the wall and if the german banks were systemic to Germany they let them prop their own banks up.


    But it's nice to see a list of names, now if we can get our hands on the homegrown bondholders names we'll get to see the real belly of this scandal. We need transparency in all of this. Lenihan should be called to a press conference to explain why these bondholders have had their ridky investments guaranteed

    they made a bad investment and they lost, tough luck that's capitalism for ya

    The Irish credit unions and pension funds claimed before they are not the bondholders.

    yet another lie from our government :(

    Thats about 80 names. So to be about 50m on average is owed to each if the bonds are valued at 100%.

    To be fair, a 50m loss to these guys is very little in terms of their balance sheets. Many of them will have sold these onto investors (given the asset managers names beside many) as bundled packages so those investors wont be hurt that much at all.
