During the Lisbon Treaty campaign IBEC promised ‘Yes For Jobs’, they lied. Now they claim a yes vote will ‘secure Ireland’s future' – once again they are lying!

Come down and support the protest.

All welcome.

Some readers may be interested to know that an effort has been made to (among other things) draw attention to the "derivatives weapons of financial mass destruction" issue -- which, very stupidly (in my opinion), almost NOBODY wishes to face up to, and take account of, at the present time it appears -- to Mr Danny McCoy, Director General of Irish Business and Employers Confederation (IBEC): using the following e-mail excerpt sent to him on May 12th 2012 ...

"The sooner this 'borrowing' madness ends, the better I would like it: particularly the 'borrowing' which is being used to pay off the bankers derivatives gambling debts (thought to be in the region of 1,000 trillion Euros the last time I looked): irresponsible payments by our Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial) which are fuelling yet more of the same kind of irresponsible gambling."

The full text of the e-mail sent to Mr McCoy (which was copied to several others) can be viewed at:
