    Statement by European Council on Agreement

    Incase anyone has an interest, we won't be in charge of our national Buget anymore after last nights agreement.



    Sinn fein will always be rendered powerless from now on, their agenda is out of their hands now.


    Deutschland uber alles!


    Oh and this ends speculation about anyone leaving the euro etc. etc.





    General government budgets shall be balanced or in surplus; this
    principle shall be deemed respected if, as a rule, the annual structural
    deficit does not exceed 0.5% of nominal GDP.



    Such a rule will also be introduced in Member States’ national legal
    systems at constitutional or equivalent level.

    I don't see why Sinn Fein specifically has anything to do with this


    Deutchland won't be uber alles when the Euro collapses (looking increasingly likely, bring on those Punt Nuas)

    Seeing as we couldn't manage our own finances..... is it really such a bad thing?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,938 ✭✭✭mackg


    I'm confused

    What does any of this have to do with Sinn Fein ?

    Thank you for your amaz-ing insight. It's hard to believe you only did your Leaving Cert last year and are probably only 19 years old, such is the vast in-depth critique that you have made of last nights meeting.

    The UK and Hungary vetoed that agreement last night.

    Today will see a similar one drawn up for those in the eurozone to sign.

    Basically, this is a message from Merkozy that only the French and Germans are sensible enough to manage their own economies, so everyone else will have to have their annual budgets approved before they can be passed.

    Tomorrow elections will be banned in France and Germany and all eurozone governments will be dissolved.

    From what I gather the eu can and will send back national budgets that they do not approve of in order to request/order/mandate changes deemed by them as being in the eu/euro interest. Also for sanctions and penalties against non compliant national governments in certain circumstances.

    Pfft, I don't believe any of these Euro/Sky is falling threads unless they come from those arch-trolls over at Zerohedge. How can we trust the news if we don't know that the person propagating it isn't going to profit?

    Yeah ask our Daddy how much pocket money we can have.

    A financial transaction tax will cost Ireland about 20000 employed in the IFSC and their connecting industries and services. This new treaty will have serious consequences which will become clearer as the weeks go by.

    As for Britain 11% of all their tax revenue is dependent on the financial sector, they have no choice but not to sign up.

    Will this lead to Britain leaving the EU????? that will also have consequences for the Irish empire.

    We should all just go back to 1000AD, life was better then. Honey and mead, no potatoes, Land of Saints and Scholars. We'd be ****ing minted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,313 ✭✭✭✭K-9


    These type of rules have been there since Maastricht, most countries ignored them, Germany and France big culprits actually.

    We had loads of budgets surpluses, though that was all property taxes.

    I think that is the big question at the moment, will this "treaty" force the UK (and/or the other non euro countries like Denmark) out of the EU.

    If Merkozy is not careful, their desperation to save the euro (and the other eurozone countries desperation to save their arses) could result in the collapse of the EU itself.

    Again what has gerry adams/ sinn fein got to do with this?.... my belief is that your a junior Fine Geal member and your rant has made no sense.

    My belief is this country is running down the pit of an innerstate of a giant capitalist movement so its only a matter of time that our entire country will have no independence.

    Mr. Cawley, what went down in your head
    Mr. Cawley, did you talk to the dead
    Your lifestyle to me seems so tragic
    With the thrill of it all
    You fooled all the people with magic
    You waited on Satan's call


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 314 ✭✭Mr Cawley


    I reflected that soverignty was a cornerstone of Sinn Fein's existence. It was just a reference. I have no party afilliation.

    The UK seem to be the only one out of the talks now, Hungary, Sweden and the Czechs back in.

    The IRA exsisted to defend the cathoic/nationalist people of this country against the terrorist group (at that time) called the Brittish government,

    They would have no opinion on whats going on now, but the real question is "WHAT WOULD YOU DO?"

    A move like this regarding the deficit 3% cap would have helped us greatly back in 08 when our crisis hit. FF wouldn't have been so lax surrounding our budgets and allowing the situation to spiral out of control in which we see a massive 18B deficit today. We'd actually be in a better position now with a deficit not as big. This as well in the future will be fantastic in that it will keep our government in line. But what is being pushed here from Merkozy is a political agenda and does sweet fcuk all to help the real problem - Euro debt.

    There is also the principle behind that of national financial control and handing it over to Berlin, Paris & Brussels.

    Actually there are suggestions the budget rules wouldn't apply in a crisis so the Govt. would be able to have huge deficits in a crisis. Depends on the detail but these seemed to be aimed particularly at Italy who have historically ran up deficits with very little growth. Can't imagine France would be that happy with it either.
