THE EUROPEAN CENTRAL BANK has left its key interest rate unchanged at 1 per cent for the fifth month in succession, at its monthly board meeting held in Barcelona. ECB president Mario Draghi said the governors had not discussed the possibility of lowering the rate. Draghi was not asked about any progress on discussions regarding Ireland’s promissory note burden during his press conference.

Poll: Are you satisfied with your quality of life?
A NEW REPORT from the OECD has suggested people living in Ireland have some of the best lives in the world, with Ireland among the top countries in its Better Life Index.
The index finds that life expectancy, low pollution, positive experiences and a healthy work-life balance are among the factors that contribute to happy lives in Ireland.
It did note, however, that the gap between the rich and poor is wider in Ireland than elsewhere, while the gender gap in educational performance is also larger than average.
Today we’re simply wondering whether (assuming you live in Ireland) you’re satisfied with your quality of life.
