Following on from my blog post yesterday, now it seems that the Irish government has only guaranteed 6 banks and left out the other banks operating in Ireland, which is unfair competition – but nice try.

The truth is if the EU or the UK did the same to any Irish bank abroad, the Irish would have gone mad in Brussels, and rightly so. The opposition in Ireland are trying to dance all over the government, with easy hitting, claiming they (the government) are not sure of what they are doing. They are probably correct to some extent, but we are in uncharted waters here and the government should be supported in every way possible, and for sure they are doing the best they can. Even Cameron said in the UK yesterday that they have to row the boat together with Labour, because this is an unreal situation and there is no room for politics. He will be the next Prime Minister of the UK, and the sooner the better!

As regards the EU, now you can see how important it was to vote “NO” to the Lisbon Treaty. The EU are right to take the government to task about the foreign banks operating in Ireland, and I would hope that whether they had control over us or not, we would support all the banks operating in Ireland equally, just to be right. We should be happy to do what is right regardless, but the thought of having to get permission from the EU to wipe our a*se, well, f*ck that!

This is a classic situation where we are happy to co-operate with our EU neighbours, even at our own cost from time to time, for the benefit of the common good, but if it comes to your a*se or ours, good luck son, and definitely when there are important decisions to be made in a hurry and stupid EU bureaucracy is standing on the fence thinking “too slow Brussels and Adios”, if it comes to it. Brian Cowen, as I said before, should stand up and say:

“We (the Irish nation) are happy to work with Brussels to a point, but if that´s not possible, we will, and are not afraid to, work on our own. We have enough wealth and talent to survive and a great belief in our own best asset (our people, and their strength).”

David Cameron also said today that if the Irish haven’t ratified the Lisbon Treaty before he gets into government, he will also put the Treaty to the English population – and I will bet any man that if that happens the English will vote “NO” as well. The sooner we get Obama and Cameron into office, the better for the world as a whole. Not HOLE!!!
