Vincent Browne Heckle !

Writing down debt is a foolish idea. The debt won't go away it will just be transferred to the taxpayer.

If the employers end of the contract can be varied at will then the employee should have the same privilege.

The debt will not be transferred to the taxpayer. That is just something you have come to expect, because your corrupt civil servant, banker, politician criminals have told us it should be so.

It is totally and wholly the responsibility of the ECB. They can deal with it in whatever way they like. Save them, liquidate them, bail them, print for them, whatever. But the one thing they should not be allowed do, as an independent body, is blackmail sovereigns in to bailing out the private banking sector.

When your precious PS ends up taking the pain it is about to take, because of the ineptitude of our politicians and civil servants, you will be screaming for debt forgiveness.

30 to 80% pay cuts tend to do that, especially when allied to the tax rises applied in order to bailout the banks that are stealing from you, even after the fact.

If any debts owed to the banks we own are written down the taxpayer takes a hit. If there's a blanket debt forgiveness scheme the taxpayer will likely have to compensate the other banks as well.

Someone paying off business debts in Ireland. What sort of pervert is he anyway?

Not true. Nationalising banks does not make you responsible for debts accrued pre nationalisation. Legal fact.

Oh dear God.

Oh dear God.

No, he,s not responsible either.

I wonder why they haven't fled that horror of horrors... any idea why Baron?

See what happens when you treat people like sh!te.

If SFs daft plan to slash all PS pay over €100k was ever implemented we'd see this repeated all over the PS.

Looks like we have vastly different ideas of what "treating people like *****" constitutes.

In this context my thinking is that repeatedly cutting pay and conditions while simultaneously vilifying them would fit the bill.
