    Sorry to disappoint you but what makes you think we OWN anglo/ibrc?
    We bailed them out not 1 cent of that money will ever be returned to us taxpayers.

    We (the Irish taxpayer) own it as in it's our liability. :mad:

    Anyone know what might happen to the 900 plus staff.

    I smell a quango, with Bertie, Biffo, and fellow Galway tent dwellers running the show on a healthy wage and additional pension of course. Loving your work Ireland.

    No, its the other gang of theives this time.

    I wonder if this has anything to do with the recent legal case brought against the issuing of promissory notes... maybe they're worried that a further action is on the cards and want to cover themselves since they know they haven't a chance of beating it.


    It is on tomorrow morning. 10:30 I wonder who the Judge is and if the Government is rattled?

    Currently sources in the ECB are saying they haven't reviewed the proposal fully. So why the rush?

    Me thinks they need to have a vote on this all before the case tomorrow. As the case hinges on there never having being a vote.

    I couldn't tell exactly what is happening from the Indo or Irish times articles...
    FT has a fairly good explanation though

    Sorry to hear but I probably wouldn't advertise the fact that you know someone who worked in the largest failed bank ever.

    I really don't think its fair to insinuate that all of the staff are to blame TBH.

    its all being rushed tonight becasue the irish central bank is, as we speak in frankfurt getting the nod from the central council of the ECB .

    we would not get this deal unless anglo was liquidated in some form,
    im hearing it dodges the legal issues that the ECB had with financing a bank,
    if its liquidated then its a bank no more
    a bit like nonnans 3 card trick on the note last march

    all will be revealed if this deal in frankfurt goes ahead

    watch this space

    No deal tonight: ECB wants more time



    EUROPEAN Central Bank leaders decided tonight that they want more time to consider a proposal presented by Ireland today to restructure the cost of the promissory notes, sources said.

    Their definition of "a fcuk up" might be a bit different to ours. If a "fcuk up" leads to millions in bonusses, salaries and debt hived off onto the mugs, as well as hugely lucrative work for auditors, bond traders, liquidators and accountants, one mans "fcuk up" might be anothers new house in the Algarve..

    From RTE
    Under the plan, IBRC’s assets would be transferred to the National Assets Management Agency.

    Getting back to this point, didn't I hear before that this kind of thing wouldn't happen again? Isn't someone in ''Europe'' meant to stop fuhken lunatics like Edna from making decisions like this? Where the fuhk are the judiciary and the regulators? Have they fuhked off on us again?????

    We bailed that out decades ago and we're still paying for its insurance failure for about another 50 years.

    And that's why they would also be concerned.

    IBRC, that name always reminds me of a mutated alien baby saying "kill me....kill meeeeee"

    It's all gone very secret squirrell in the dail tonight, seems the old board of Anglo11 Ibrc are getting a bit of a clear-out and a lot of new legislation is being horsed through in the usuall(we're up to no good)way when sommthing that suits them needs to get done. The last time I saw activity like this, they guaranteed the banks(mighty stroke 1), we could be in for another 100 years of debt if this level of croak and blaggers is anything to go by.

    Is this likely to have a negative impact my Anglo shares

    No, none. They can't go any lower...They might go up a bit as collectors items in a few years time. Seems Alan has got his P45, sad to see him go, I hope he is able to get by with the Dole. Another late night "cooking" session" in the Dail, another dumb deal. Lenihans "magic" promissory notes, will be converted into solid Govt Bonds, debt we will 100% have to repay to the ECB. After the bank guarantee, this has to be the dumbest scheme yet devised by the DOF. Legalising an illegal act is the least jaundice view to take of this, great carry on for a Govt elected by and for the people. More Bananas Vicar?

    My biggest fear its that another treacherous 'stroke' is about to be bestowed on the Irish people by a bunch of **** in suits, pensioned up for life.

    Not our debt?

    Its about to be.:mad:

    Ha, I heard he had been summoned, suprised to see he'll be heading back tomorrow though. He won't have much time to give it consideration:)

    The President departed Rome at 7:30pm local time for Fiumicino airport and Dublin, to make himself available on the possibility of there being legislation to consider.

    He intends to return to Italy tomorrow and looks forward to meeting with President Napolitano tomorrow evening, and with the director-general of the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation, Jose Graziano da Silva.

    They'll understand why he has to leave for a bit. "I gotta take care of bidness. I try to break away, but every time, they drag me back in"..
