Madam, – The mandate of this Government has clearly expired, morally if not temporally.
The latest move by the Greens to delay matters until their pet legislation has been rammed through is reprehensible (Front page, December 9th). They seem to have no idea that the carbon footprint of the bank bailout dwarfs any possible good that their party has ever done.
Where do they think the billions of euro that we are getting from the IMF come from? Ethical, sustainable, locally-sourced cottage industries? This money is generated by dirty heavy industries, the arms trade, the oil business, big pharma and the global financial industry.
What these people have done is to place this country in debt to the very organisations they purport to abhor. They must go now, their moral authority is gone, their own members should, if necessary, use their party rules to remove them. – Yours, etc,
