Scoondal wrote: » Yes. But the comment seemed to suggest that 20 years ago things were fine. Both Fine Gael and Fianna Fail can go away, but this "FFG" thing is just a populist theme. I don't do populism. I have my own brain.

Both are too blame They couldn't even get the required ICU beds they told us they needed during a pandemic and the winter plan says we will get 17 more ICU beds Do you want to blame the Shinners on that one too?
Scoondal wrote: » No, I can't blame the shinners for that. I blame Bertie Ahern's government for closing hospital wards.

Carbon tax going up for me. That money is going to people on the dole who already get housing, medical cards, grants etc. VRT going up - cars being made more expensive. PUP recipients likely to get a bonus at Christmas. What a joke. They're already getting more than they deserve after they've lost their job. Help to buy scheme being expanded to prop up property prices. Literally impossible for me to every buy a new place. 2 bed apartments where I live are going for 380k. How much of taxpayers money that is going to have to be paid back through higher taxes is being pumped into businesses? The money thrown at them is disgusting. You don't get rewarded for working anymore.

I know a number of people who have flown into the UK and they say that there are less checks there. One of them flew into Belfast last week and wasn't asked once about Covid. The French system is haphazard as well. Why do you keep making things up?
