In its issue dated 25th February 2009 , 'The Clondalkin Echo' newspaper carried an article , on Page 1 and Page 3 , containing an interview with the Fine Gael Clondalkin Councillor and State Senator Therese Ridge . |

"You want a roof over your head ? Hold on 'till I get you a collection bucket..."
If this was such a great idea then why didn't they do it this way for the banks?
One rule for the poor. Another for the rich.
Hi Bailout !
Good question .
It seems we're to be squeezed , and they and their political friends in Leinster House will be doing the squeezing .
On a door-to-door basis , perhaps.
Thanks!
Sharon.
I think this will just be the start of things from listenning to what seems to be coming down the line at us
the ordinary joe soaps are gonna be bled dry by those that screwed up. The unions and other partys that are more worker friendly than the bosses outfits better get geared up for the battle thats coming.
Hi Larry !
I think you're on the right track with your comment , but I hope you don't mind if I 'tweak' it a wee bit by suggesting that the union members themselves - the workers - should get geared-up and be prepared to stand up to their own union bosses as well as the bosses in their jobs.
Cynic that I am , I have little faith in either camp.
Thanks for the comment , Larry ,
Sharon.
