'NEW' Government Coalition

cursai

Does anybody expect this 'new' coalition government to do annnnnnything than what Fianna Fail were proposing to do?
So far they reached agreements:

Public Sector redundancies 18000 - 21000 (not enough)

Some sort of universal health insurance!

Increase mortgage interest relief! (will only sustain the housing bubble and lock 1st time buyers out of the market)

NO welfare cutback! (seriously! the economics of a tramp on lidl best fortified wine)

Am i the only one who thinks were getting even more stale, incomplete and unrealistic policy agreements?:rolleyes:

No there a good few of us! We tend to stay quiet as the people on welfare beneifits dont like to argue about it. Like atheists and their religion!

What do people expect? The election was merely rearranging deckchairs on The Titanic.

Boards has many doleheads, lots of frequent posters are on dole a while.
Generally you cant argue much against it as they come out in force.
Of course its never their fault.

Id love to see it cut by 50%, down to what they have in England.
