    https://www.irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/business/residents-say-200-jobs-will-be-lost-with-plans-to-bypass-donegal-town-887129.html

    Not a mention of what specific jobs. Nothing to back it up. Just some tools in the way of progress.

    Other exxagerations...a recent one for a house for sale in Ballymahon "5 minutes drive from Athlone". No it flucking isn't you tool.

    Veryangryman. Not that angry at all tbh...

    Yep. I deal with it on a very regular basis for major things as well as minor. It's just a part of getting anything done, but honestly, it can be really convenient.

    Yeah I've had the it's easier to just pay a cop a few dollars to feck off than contest a fine for random invented road infraction a few times and I've also had the it's easier to just pay someone to get something done than go through 5 layers of insane bureaucracy and waste a load of time for the same result.

    True, I got a taxi home one night, he was Nigerian & he was saying how great Ireland was & that when the Irish talk about corruption here, it's nothing in comparison to Nigerias corruption && weon't know how lucky we are here.
