People who did not want abortion legalised will become increasingly bitter. This will lead to 2 separate societies on the island, separated by a wall of Clonakilty black pudding. Neither will be able to integrate travellers into their new society.

He will be the last pope but I think he will last until 2033 as the predictions of Revelations. The fall of Rome will be the end of Europe and there will be a change of regime in Europe.

Brexit still won't be sorted out by this time next year. Limited cross border travel between North Korea (DPRK) and South Korea will recommence. Tubs will quit the LLS and Brendan O' Connor will take over. Boyzone, Westlife and Boyzlife will announce another comeback tour. Nathan and Jake Carter will merge, turn their backs on country music and form a ska band. Liverpool will win the PL. The next series of the Taskmaster will not be as good as the last one. Miriam will retire from RTE and Ciara Kelly will take over from her.

The French just got themselves a pay rise today (min wage to increase €100pm from Jan 1). That'll cover the cost of yellow vest and 3M dust masks.

An interesting read, yes Italy/Rome to fall, but thought he said Peter would be the last pope, unless Frank is also known as Pete.

Nostra' is much more cryptic, but isn't with much joy for the Med along the coasts of France and italy.

The EU collapses

DanMurphy · 10-12-2018 10:11pm

Carbon Tax rises in Ireland from March, so another 50 coal=burning Power Stations can open in China.

April - Sinead O' Connor given Senatorship to boost her profile for next Pres. Election.

White horses, greyhounds and ponies banned from racing / showjumping in Rep of Ireland due to complaints.

Margaret Cash stands for election on a Law & Order Ticket in Council Elections and wins a seat in Dublin City Council in June.

The first political shots taken by Government to Nationalize private property (in the public good) after a successful campaign turns those who own their own homes into 'public enemies.'

The Irish band Six will reform briefly.
Terror attack(s) on mainland Europe will grab headlines.
An Irish burglar will be shot dead on the job and the country will rally in support of their victim.
We'll have a second cracking summer in a row.
Dubs will retain Sam (again).
A Munster team will win the hurling.
My trusty 'Rolla will hit 350,000km's :P

4068ac1elhodqr · 10-12-2018 10:56pm

There is much focus here on the one formerly know as Sinead O' Connor, perhaps a seat at the UN beckons.
Perhaps too, a representative should the Pleiadians land at the Great Pyramid looking for their gold and spice bags to take back to their system.

Am already sold on the idea of Nathan Carter (as mentioned above) switching to ska or punk.
It would be like wan Mliey Cyprus who gave up country music and descended into public debauchery.

Brexit will go ahead, but Ireland will lose a lot of the single market integration to avoid the hard border that would otherwise be imposed by a clean break Brexit.
The EU will continue for a few more years yet, maybe morphing back to the original EEC model or completely breaking up in the next ten years.
The Chinese empire building continues apace, with consolidation in the south China sea which is grudgingly accepted by neighbours to avoid unfavourable trade with China.

More African countries will find themselves on the hook for binding trade & debt deals that effectively give China a say in the internal politics of those countries (we're already seeing that now).

Investment in future oil exploration is cutback as EV's start to make a real dent in oil consumption, resulting in a period of glut followed by shortages three or four years down the line as new fields are not developed and expensive fields are shut in.

Car buyers will have a dilemma, either go EV ASAP or have a couple of years of cheaper motoring in an ICE vehicle, those who can't affors new will almost certainly go the second option.

I agree with Britex and the EU bit. Britex will happen and the EU is not going to last for much longer in its current form.

China needs to be watched. They are spending huge amounts in Africa and its not aid.

Mass EV use is way off. The electric grid won't be able to handle it and there is still issues with lithium production.

Same with AI and self driving vehicles. Not next year or 2029 for that matter.

My own are that Russia will invade Ukraine, Prince Philip will die, Trump will be ousted and jailed.

Cash will make a come back also. There will be some meltdown with a banks system that will leave the Apple/Google pay generation up **** creek for a few days.

Franz Von Peppercorn · 11-12-2018 1:07am

Far from watching China, Europe should join in the new silk route.

We need to get off the teet of the US.

ToddyDoody · 11-12-2018 3:20am

Amazon.co.uk, and several other UK based websites announce they will stop shipping to Ireland.

Due to tariffs and long queues at ports many brands of EU and UK products we are used to seeing on Irish shelves either disappear or increase in price by 40% or more.

Or, just use Parcel motel. Ship it all to the north then fast track it down.
