    Irish industrial turnover is down 23.6% year on year to the end of August. August is 9.3% down on July. Numbers like that haven't been seen since the great depression, and Q3 and Q4 will be a lot worse as the Dell transfer continues.

    I'm sure they'll all get sustainable green jobs instead so its alright.
