Standing up to the bully boys of europe

blacksmith105

Here we go again ... The bloody Germans have the jack boots on demanding that we increase of corporation tax to the same as the rest of europe or else ..
The frogs are no better and demand the tax rate increased for a small concession in the interest rate

Does this not smack of big powerful nations picking on the smallest one for its own gain .. The Germans and French have cost millions of lives over the past 200 years through the wars they started by trying to enslave smaller weaker european nations .. has nothing changed

I am not a big FG supporter but fair play to enda for telling the krauts and frogs to feck off , german and french banks poured billions into irish banks in the hope of making hugh profits from an artifical economy
They should take some of the blame as well , we can deal with the feckless irish at this end.

Wolfe Tone

I think what we are seeing here is simply to con the Irish people, using the "triumph" of keeping our tax rate to sooth the blow of the bailout.

OP, what you've started here doesn't reach the standard required of the beginning of a Politics forum discussion (as you'll see from the charter and stickies, a this isn't just a ranting forum) and that'd before we go near the "frogs" and "krauts" stuff.

Locked. Maybe a blog instead.
