Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Right wing monetarist policy is a disease, as is the fawning to the US, and the hoardes of toad like journalists that pandr to such. At least we still have the elections, they have not been rigged yet.
I am looking forward to the reemergence of centre left governments through out Europe. Media rats will still whine " Why punish the rich?" Funny that. Government intervention in helping the poor is a no no, because it distorts the markets.
Well, the tide is coming back in scumbags, and you will drown.( I'm talking to the PDs, Forza Italia, former PP from Spain, and all the other disgusting degenerates) You let greedy investors screw ordinary people over rent, and call it liberal, vibrant, free trade. Social Welfare is bad, the por need to be able to stand on their own feet. That is why you suspens rent allowance payments.
We all got news for you. We'll stand on our own feet all right, and we will use them to stand on your heads. You may see yourselves as hard workers ( hard con men more like) Your children will not be so hard. Create envy and you create a very dangerous situation for your childrten. You forment revolt with your arrogance.
Monetarists, for the future safety of Europe, we demand you retire now.

in true Italian style, (that means tomato sauce for Parlin county and pesto for Dublin 6w, [I'm sure Mc Dowell has gone abroad on holidays], {just as celtic tiger has meant to most the ability to choose a good Italian pasta suace in the local multi-national-corporation supermarket} - though as I never tire of reminding everyone, he has not spent any formative time outside of Terenure)
anyway-
the parties of the governing Coalition (remind you of anything) have since 19h00 started talking very seriously about splitting.
"it was their fault!"
"they lost us the election!"
"I've lost my best parliamentary drinking buddy!"

If I had thought it was this much fun to schwing elections, I'd have thought about voting.
