Large Crowds At Dublin Airport To Welcome IMF & EU Delegation

RockinRolla

Large crowds are expected to turn out at Dublin Airport tomorrow Thursday to welcome the IMF/EU visitor influx. The government has hailed their decision to spend time in Ireland as a great success for the Department of Tourism's marketing drive to increase bednights and in particular their focus on attracting high spending visitors.

To mark the occasion public and civil servants are being given an additional privilege day to enable them to be at the Airport.

Special discount deals are being put together by an array of leisure and refreshment service providers hoping to attract the honoured visitors to spend time in their premises.

The visit has already seen a boost to the share price of the parent company owning Dublin's troubled Four Seasons hotel.

Minister for Finance Brian Lenihan in a statement added:

'Ireland had to fight off intense international competition to secure this delegation. I warmly commend the efforts of the dedicated staff and my colleagues in government for making this a reality'.

Caught this on Politics and lulz.

The IMF commissioners have kindly agreed to adopt English as the preferred language for communications with Ireland, rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Conor Lenihan conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a five-year phased plan for what will be known as EuroEnglish (Euro for short).

In the first year, "s" will be used instead of the soft "c." Sertainly, irish sivil servants will resieve this news with joy. Also, the hard "c" will be replaced with "k". Not only will this klear up konfusion, but typewriters kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik emthusiasm in the sekond year, when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced by "f". This will make words like fotograf" 20 persent shorter.

In the third year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. The IMF will enkorage the removal of double letters, which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of silent "e"s in the languag is disgrasful, and they would go.

By the fourth year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" by "z" and "w" by " v".

During ze fifz year, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou", and similar changes vud of kors be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.

After zis fifz yer, ve vil hav a reli sensibl riten styl. Zer vil be no mor trubls or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech ozer.

Ze drem vil finali kum tru.

Who are we kidding, we all fcuking loved the undeserved, spoilt-bastard, moneybags days of the celtic tiger when everything was easier, from getting a place in college due to low number of applicant and hundreds of courses to illegally claiming social welfare while working on a building site without ever getting caught. (i didnt do this but lots did). People with zero intention of ever working having a high standard of living with no social commentary about this fact because everyone else around them was buzzing off their undeserved sense of self-worth from living on credit. 400 jobs a day were created in the year 2000. Imagine we had that now. Imagine being able to get a part-time job at college simply by exerting your will. And being able to expect 30 grand a year coming out of college and being able to work in your country of preference ie. Ireland. LOL

The IMF are only glorified loan sharks, they pray on weaker countries and then strip them of all their sovereignty and dignity. Im surprised that there will not be protests at these banksters as they arrive in this country rubbing their hands at another kill.

I can just picture the IMF/EU guy as he walks down of the plane at Dublin airport humming to himself
