Economy emerging from recession
Irish Economy Boost from multinational profits (14:01) Figures from the CSO show that the Irish economy technically emerged from recession in the first three months of this year

If you think this Government is working, ask someone who isn’t, how can we believe this crap from the people who told us for years that the recession wasn’t going to happen!

.

and 5800 is only the “seasonally” adjusted figure, the real figure rose by 14960, I don’t think we need to seasonally adjust our government with Labour or Fine Gael we need a Revolution!

I’m very interested in getting my hands on one of these

It’s the Roberts Robi, its RRP is 49 British pounds. it does DAB and FM and Ipod remote, I’m not hoping for much from the DAB on the northside of Dublin, the signal is way too sensitive about polarisation for it to work in weak signal areas. But the back up of VHF (FM) untill the signal increases at analog switch off will do nicely, and the remote will be handy too.

If anyone has found one of these let me know, comment below

Why do banks still chain down the pens to the table, the banks make billions of euros by taking in our wages and charging us to take the money back out of a hole in the wall. Could they not just give us free pens like in Argos or the Bookies, after a while everyone who is going to nick the pens will have enough, and the supply of unchained pens will remain.

Banks are the most secure buildings with CCTV and security guards, but this is what the think of their customers, that we’re thieves out to rob them and if the pen isn’t chained down it will be nicked.

What we need is to nationalise the banks and take them into common ownership, and to distribute free pens (not the shity Argos ones that have a planed obsolescence of a few hours) to all the people.
