Ireland in chaos - Markets, media and EU are ASTOUNDED!

A week ago last saturday I blogged on the Irish powder keg, linked here, which concluded with the following:

"Yet the EU elite seem to imagine the Irish problem is solved and lectures on tax rates are considered as appropriate, my own, not inconsiderable portions of Irish blood, tells me that this is a tale with far to go!"

A week ago tomorrow, in spite of the revelation that Ireland had apparently been creating German backed euros, the Irish leader amazingly survived a confidence vote from his party but by today has resigned that post, lost his coalition partner and seems likely to have to bring forward the 11th March date for the general election.

The legalisation of the EU/IMF package has not been accomplished in the Irish Parliament, although funds have reportedly been handed over by the EU, yet one more illegality following the outrages of last May.

Through all this the British media, in spite of the Government having pledged billions of taxpayers funds to flow across the Irish Sea, and the EU have remained silent.

Is this blogger insane? Or is it the rest of the world?

Well we did share the same madhouse within veritas, did we not? So our sanity must be questioned.

It is going to develop further. Sadly, my money is on Sein Feinn becoming the ruling party in Ireland following the general election. Gerry Adams for Prime Minister. Now that would open many cans of large ugly worms.

Gerry Adams will not become Prime Minister but he may become President. Why else give up a Westminster salary for doing nothing?

The media are in hand and glove with the politicians. Why would they rock the boat?
