The only reason this might be good for Ireland is because Spain and Italy dug their heels in…

Hopefully it will be retrospective. Though we also need to see the details of the deal to see at what price the change comes at.

Lets hope the positivity comes to pass. We’ve had false dawns before.

Does this mean the billions already pumped into Irish banks will be taken off the country debt?

So what happen’s next??
Does this mean Irish taxpayer’s are to stop paying private bank debt,or are we still Liable to pay the whole lot.

I’ll believe it when i see it!

Will this mean that the government will stop turning the screw on us? Will we see our standard of living improve? Or stop declining? Will we have more money in our pockets to spend so as to grow our domestic economy? If this new deal does not address the above than this deal has no meaning or value for the Joe Soap on the street.

Dont be taken in yet folks till it’s written in stone , until then it’s just more lies, promises and bullshit !

Firstly Gilmore this is not our debt remember that!
Also it just shows how gutless our politicians are that they have to wait for Spain to need a bailout and then we jump on their backs

G’wan Eamonn, tell us we’ve ‘turned a corner’(tm)

We’ll get more favourable terms to repay other peoples debts thanks to the spanish and italin governments, like we got a lower interest rate thanks to Greeces unsustainable debt burden. And we” be treated of images from now till the next election of fine gael and labour patting each other on the backs, exclaimig how their strong leadership and dogged determination at the negotiating table had won Ireland a deal on the debts.

What Eamon, Yahooooooooo its finaly Labours way, ahh no hang on wait a minute, false alarm, more BULLSh*T.

If by ‘game changer’ you mean more of the same, then rock on game changer.

“although Germany appears to have compromised, Chancellor Angela Merkel has managed to ensure that Brussels has more control over the finances of eurozone countries, something she had wanted.”

Seems Merkel has got her way, and our budgets will be sanctioned by Brussels via the Bundestag.

Our traitorous Blue Shirted Smoked Salmon Socialist numpties will have handed the Germans the irish Republic before they leave power !!!

As for Gimmemore, this thing is Not retrospective. Meaning we will be paying for the current bank debt for decades to come. This deal will only relate to Italy, Spain etc & any future bank failures.

Our Goons in Govt had no say in this “Deal” whatsoever, they are merely hanging off the coat tails of Italy & Spain.

”and said that it massively improves the chances of Ireland not needing a second bailout.” Sure they always said we would not NEED a second bail out . More sh!te ! Gilmore et al, have any of you any idea how depressing you all make us feel . How much did these discussions cost the tax payers across Europe ? You are all a joke . Spending money on Garbage.That is all you lot are doing.

WRONG GILMORE

A promise was made to “examine the situation of the Irish financial sector”.

Pity you didn’t have the guts to insist on it in the first place Gilbore….
Either way I still wouldn’t vote FG again

Crap deal. AGAIN. Euro bonds and debt forgiveness is whats needed. Nothing else will work

Another great day for Ireland. Time after time, people said it wouldn’t and couldn’t be done. We were told if we voted Yes to the Fiscal Treaty, we would get no deal at all. When the country voted Yes in their majority right the Sinn Fein/lefties cried and said we were doomed. A few weeks later, the EU strikes a deal which has resulted in some good news for Ireland and news that you were all told would happen.

We all know that Ireland doesn’t – regardless of who was in power – have a strong hand to play in Europe. We are a small country. We needed the support of bigger countries who have more power and more say to get a decent deal and move Europe in a right direction. We have been asking, demanding, pleading, trying and while movement was in our favour – it was going very slow until others started to back us. We had some concessions already, and once again we have more.

Great day. Great news. No doubt it will be spun here completely different.

ireland citizens use credit cards only. that way we dont have to worry about the euro and the banks wont need cash
