Considering the amount of people out of work, what's the point? NSFW is a luxury.

Yeah it is - http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/cartoon/2010/nov/19/steve-bell-irish-bailout

They've also got a live ticker on the whole subject of the Irish bailout - http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2010/nov/19/ireland-debt-crisis-bailout-live-blog

Absurdum

Looks more like Dan Boyle to be honest
