    Now this is something that I see as being absolutely pointless. The budget is going to go ahead completely as planned regardless of any protest.

    I passed by the protest as I was doing the shopping at the weekend. One of the signs held up in the Waterford contingent was "FREEMASON KENNY HELPS TO MURDER CHILDREN." :eek:

    If a person is marching, are they marching because they want to see government spending cut, or are they marching because they want to see taxation increase?

    will any of the organisers/speakers be spelling out exactly how they would bridge the deficit? Do they have any idea how we could move on from the current situation where this country BORROWS 50 MILLION EURO PER DAY just to run the country?

    or will we be treated to lots of populist nonsense?

    True enough. We all know how to minimise the the €50m a day borrowings. It's just no-one has the balls to do it.
