Madam, – The financial trajectory of our economy is effectively being dictated by the IMF and the EU. It is a most regrettable state of affairs which has been brought about by many factors that have been well and truly discussed,documented, debated, and forensically analysed in the media, both in Ireland and elsewhere.
That is all that seems to happen in Ireland – let’s talk about our problems as an economy and society and do virtually nothing about them. Talk shows and tribunals ad nauseam.
With the visits of President Obama and Queen Elizabeth to our country, why not ask one of their governments to integrate our country into either the United States of America or the United Kingdom?
Successive Irish governments have muddled from one crisis to another with monotonous regularity, feckless incompetence, lack of accountability, and even corruption, that has caused many thousands of our citizens to leave our shores, especially in the 1950s, 1980s, and once again in the current economic abyss.
The majority of decent Irish people who live here deserve better.
Enough is enough. – Yours, etc,
