    ...that you don't live in Ireland with the bollocks budget that has been announced.

    One example -

    Former public servants on 3000 euros a week pension asked to take a 4% cut in income
    Young people with disabilities claiming disability allowance getting 188 euros a week asked to take a 47% cut.

    How is that fair?

    They only have their politicians to blame really. Same as Greece and Spain and Italy.

    I'm in NI and never as glad to be part of the UK considering their cuts and tax hikes will be worse than anything the Tories will do.

    One of the few good things people can say about Labour

    At the moment, if there was a referendum I would vote no.
