Done? You just copied and pasted the bloody headline! How is that expressing an opinion? Have you even read the article?

Does what make me angry. This economic trouble has been in the news a while now so i'm kinda over it. I'm more annoyed about the lack of media attention this Giant Rock in our Milky Way Neighborhood story is getting!

I have a solution for our little debt problem.

The banking crisis is costing approx 84 billion.

There are approx 2 million people working in Ireland.

Get the 2 million people to take out a loan of 42000 to be paid back in 30 years costing at 1400 per year. Interest free.

No need for public service cuts, tax increases, etc in next budget.

**** off and stop posting ****e here then. There is a politics forum.

The scaremongering is getting tiresome and making multiple threads in After Hours won't change that.

Ah the British Euroskeptics. They're always good for a laugh. Our guys are pretty bad, they tend to say, "That was a fun ride, but let's go somewhere else", whereas the British ones hate anything which involves French or German co-operation and will insist to their graves that the EU is an "experiment" gone wrong.

Even better is the British guy that George Hook gets on who claims that Ireland joining the EEC in the 1970's was the worst thing that ever happened to us.

Because the whole bloody point of an internet forum is to express an opinion, not just to link blindly to obscure articles. Also, it's customary to add an intorduction as to what the piece is about, so one can tell whether or not is of interest without having to wade through the bloody article; an opinion to start the debate and an expression of why this is important enough to the OP to warrant starting a thread over.

Basic ****ing common sense, how are ya...

the eurosceptics have said all along you cant have currency union without political union. one interest rate does not fit all they said.

i am having a very hard time finding a flaw in this logic. was this doomed to fail from the start?

I'am still confused.
How is posting "another ****e thread about the economy" expressing any sort of opinion.
Where is the link between the thread and the above comment: surely for the post to be a opinion it must some how relate to the thread in some general term(s) at least?

Ireland has been destroyed??

Seems the same to me...

His opinion is that there are too many ****e threads about the economy on AH.

It's a bit ironic that you ask that really, as what YOU'RE saying has no relation to the thread in any general term either... One of us! One of Us! One of us!

So how does that work, your change of mind? Did you firstly read Lizzard's initial post wrong? It was only one short sentence, and hardly confusing.

Notwithstanding this, the OP was

Clearly the question "Does this make you angry?", is asked in relation to the Daily Mail article in the OP.

And with this clearly being the case, how are either of your intrepretations of the expressed opinion linked to this particular thread?


We can discuss irony after you respond to the above.

Excluding the famine nonsense, that article is spot-on.
