    Bertie and McCreevy again. My town in East Cork is inundated with apartments, the better ones of which are (over ten years old, and) still attracting renters, as they are pretty spacious, but the sh1tboxes that have gone up since the mid noughties, along with one ill conceived development from the start of the boom are destined to lie idle. One scheme of 84 was completed (almost), only 12 months ago. There's only been a handful of heads hitting pillows there since, and at that, very briefly.

    The solicitors firms in Dublin got their tax breaks though, and the builders got paid.

    Madness.

    Who in RTE decided this was a scoop that has "emerged this evening"? It was published in the fecking legislation in 2000.

    Next headline on RTE - "Lehman Brothers has collapsed, shock report reveals".
