“This is not a natural disaster, it is a policy decision”
FF/FG/LB would have you believe that this is what happens in recession, that it’s “natural”, but no they had choices and they chose the interests of a few over the interests of the masses. Makes me so sick.
The vultures arrived in Ireland after the crisis when they realised there was a lot of property up for grabs at knock down prices, writes Michael Byrne.

THREE BRITISH CABINET ministers have said today that Brexit should be delayed if the UK parliament doesn’t approve a deal in the next few days.
Writing in the Daily Mail, Amber Rudd, David Gauke and Greg Clark said it would be better to seek to extend Article 50 and delay Britain’s departure rather than crash out of the EU on 29 March with no deal.
The ministers’ warning comes ahead of next week’s crucial vote in the House of Commons. On Wednesday, MPs are expected to consider an amendment to give Parliament the opportunity to delay Brexit and stop a no-deal scenario if there is no agreement made with the EU by the middle of March, the BBC reported.
So, today we want to know: Should Brexit be delayed if a deal isn’t agreed?

Exactly, firesales of property advertised outside Ireland at knock-down prices, first-time buyers unable to access credit to buy homes at a time when property was cheap, even if they could well afford it. Empty units sat on by nama to deliberately shrink availability and push up prices. No social housing built, this is a deliberately created bubble, fg/lab have a lot to answer for, they learned nothing from ff mismanagement. This bubble will be much more short-lived but has the potential to cause even more damage than the last one, fg/lab have begun the vile action of selling Ireland to foreign landlords just to further their political careers.
