Is there a more incompetent government in Europe than the Irish government?
I could probably do a better job than they can and I don't even have a background in finance!
Seriously, just find one government more incompetent.
Our government taxes us to shit, but can't even attempt to fix the absolutely useless health system, or even attempt to provide social housing.
Any sane person would be against social housing and public healthcare anyway, but if you're going to do it at least do it right!
check!
>Seriously, just find one government more incompetent.
Greece, Spain and Belgium
But you guys are supposedly doing great after the whole drugs fiasco.
I'm an irish guy, and I think we should definitely leave the eu, we can make a deal with the uk and other countries in the Anglosphere.
We literally have 7 fucking goverments that do nothing gg no re.
Not with this government. We'd fall apart.
Fine Gael couldn't govern their way out of a paper bag.
Our Finance Minister was a primary school teacher, like.
In a democracy, the government is a reflection of the people.
The fact is the Irish have an IQ of 92, making them closer to Brazilian apes than the average Briton. So maybe the British were on to something.
I was going to say the US but then I continued reading and saw only European countries.
Greece is fucking retarded. Italy will collapse in the next few months when their banking industry finally defaults.
The Irish may be potato niggers but I would take 100 Irish over 1 nigger.
>Is there a more incompetent government in Europe than the Irish government?
Clearly you've never been to Eastern Europe.
>Be literally Irish
>Not Norse-Gael
Why do you bother to breathe son
Sounds like you need a lesson in 19th century British eugenics, old boy.
Ours.
pay denbts
>IQ of 92
Source?
Is this still circulating?
We will declare bankruptcy after the eurozone collapses, no denbt payment for the jews.
It triggers you lot immensely to the point of you foaming at the mouth.
>Be literally British
>Foreign paki is mayor of your capital
You should really do something about that.
Our government is fine, and for the first time in our states history we have TDs from across the chamber being useful. Which is a nice change from a whip dominated house.
They turned against commissioning social housing projects during the Reagan years, 'Free Market' will fix it and all that shite
>Is there a more incompetent government in Europe than the Irish government?
The British Government.
>Ireland exports its best and brightest.
>Brazil exports coffee.
Identity Ireland will fix all...

>Sinn Fein is left wing nationalist
>left wing nationalist
how does this happen?
The Irish fucks were always left wing nationalists. I think in their case it was more of a deep hatred of the English because they got BTFO so badly.
Something tells me that your decision at the referendum is going to be ignored.
Just like ours.
English oppression
People in this country are either completely brainwashed by the EU or they just don't care it's a fucking mess man
But either way they're too drunk to care!
This.
Ours
You know the milton saying that if you want to find even worse government you just look at the governments that rule other governments?
It's like that with the EU.
We are paying murican

Even if the Moon collapses on Earth the denbts won't be written off. Don't kid yourself.
Good thing there are almost no democracies in the world. and there are almost entirely oligarchies.

this is a meme. Irish taxes are low

"Irish nationalism"
It amazes me how polls consistently show that we're among the most fanatically pro-EU countries. Scotland seems to be the same these days.
Here's some brand new information you probably haven't seen. Everyone on this fucking planet is a mess. There isn't a single place on this fucking planet that isn't a mess. Ireland's a mess to a degree, The US is a mess to a degree, the UK, Greece, Brazil, Spain, EVERY single country is a mess but they have their respective roles that they excel in, they're will always be pros to the cons and vice versa lad. You will never get a golden utopia pure and free. It's literally impossible and will always have cracks in it.
enjoying the dole?
Can you link me to one of these polls? Out of curiosity.
Not a good idea to give your "Irish Intellectuals" to other nations. Ireland isn't a country that could handle a brain drain. you're practically south Americans.
>without a fight

Why did you guys vote for fags?
>Let me tell you how your country works
I want to see a complete Ireland, and a new union. Great Britain and the Sovereign Republic of Ireland. Lads but, no kissing the queens arse for you if you don't wanna. We're almost there already. The only way to get over NI is to completely disregard them.
It makes sense.
Here's a recent one
ec.europa.eu
Freedom to determine for ourselves what we want, We were given a choice to join the European community. And the goal of peaceful cooperation and federation was more acceptable than the aristocracy of the UK.
ayyyyyyy
I love how Brazilians are always slinging shit at people, especially themselves. Has your entire fucking "country" been castrated.
>Any sane person would be against social housing and public healthcare anyway,
cuck
>or even attempt to provide social housing.
No, we don't need knackers, "single mother" slags, and stereotypically niggerish black people given houses for free, when thousands of Irish families paid so much to have nice houses during the last 20 years.
Fuck em.
The foreigners who need it shouldn't be here, welfare queens should get jobs (we are in the EU, after all, so they can go abroad if needs be), and "single mothers" should get only contempt.
The lowest I've seen is 96.
It's a long story, but a big topic in Irish historiography is how Irish nationalism had two "traditions", one a right-wing one and one a left-wing one.
Long story short, the right-wing one got its best results in the 19th century, and might have gotten more, had the Northern Irish and House of Lords not refused to compromise and left the left wing to run roughshod over both Ireland and Britain.
Then the Soviet Union and its satellite state campaign made it more or less so that the Marxists were the ones who had the initiative in advocating (more like terrorising) for a united Ireland.
Do you think votes should elicit no change in direction?
The result was taken seriously, the reasons people voted the way they did was considered and addressed. The new vote was held with different conditions to address peoples concerns. They voted yes.
Thats a pretty democratic thing to do desu
Nope. Just fooling around on the internet.
>blueshirt
I agree completely.
Because fags are good craic.
Depends on how you define it. Surely the gov't is competent at destroying the country.
>Just fooling around on the internet.
Shouldn't be to hard for then eh?
Young people became clones of America within a generation.
I'm guilty of it myself, even if I can look critically at the standard "Millennial" culture.
Awkward.
>redpill
I feel like norn iron catholics and protestants are always fighting and we in Ireland and England have to sort of pull em off each other lmao
>or even attempt to provide social housing.
We have lots of houses to give to refugees, actually.
I never understood how they went from freedom fighting, ethnocentric nationalists to refugee hugging, gay pride parades in a few decades.
I knew a guy who was a customs official in Ireland. He told me that if he worked hard the other officials would get upset because he'd make them look bad and they'd have to work harder.
Of course we do,
Who cares about the Irish homeless, right?
As if anything else needs to be said.
I always thought Ireland is something like a tax heaven inside the EU and that many bigger corporations have setlled there. But maybe I am completely wrong here
Refugees should be kept in direct provision camps. They should certainly not be given houses across the country.
We also need to revise our citizenship system, Remove Jus Soli (right to citizenship by birth on our soil).
>tfw national socialist in ireland
;_;

There once was an Irishman who got so drunk while he was in Rome that he kissed his wife and beat the Pope's foot .
Whats the difference between an Irish wedding, and an Irish funeral?
There's one less drunk.
Why wasn't Jesus born in Ireland?
He couldn't find 3 wise men or a virgin.
>your decision at the referendum is going to be ignored
I doubt it but on the other hand watching London burn would be entertaining
That one about the wedding/funeral is remarkably accurate.
drugs fiasco?
Our government is more incompetent I assure you.
At least your nation could provide for your people before the shitskins arrived.
look, someone mixed up the Belgian flag
>There once was
Stopped reading there, I don't need to read a paragraph of shit from a literal ape. I'm surprised you're not mourning the loss of that gorilla harambe, but stealing and raping won't wait so why should you right?
>we can make a deal with the uk
You already have an exclusive deal with us from 1923.
Nothing will change.

we know you're a shitty phoneposter
The government did provide for us.
Remember the massive economic boom where we had more money than we knew what to do with? That was fun, right?
And we punished those guys by not electing them for eight whole years.
I mean our government managed to loose an EU referendum, despite everything, and is now just sitting there doing nothing until someone takes over so Dave can retire to a farm.
>being this upset.
But that's highly logical. Look at the Baltics and the Nazis. Yeah, they knew they'd be Hitler's puppets, but sooner the enlightened rule of the German than the rule of subhman savages...
This
We're trading bros
>being so upset he has to look up a paragraph worth of """"jokes""""" to counter post after being so anally butt flustered about being called what he is
Will NI ever re-unite with Ireland?
South african parliament
That wasn't a direct result of government policy, though. The global economy was fairly good at the time.
But it was the government's decision to bail out six failing banks that caused us to go into even more debt.
No. Nobody wants it except for idiot nationalist kids.
All it brings is debt and terrorism, the UK would gladly give it to us if they could get away with it.
Proposal, Irish anons.
Since the government can't make up their minds on this issue, what do ye think of the idea of an armed An Garda SÃochana?
Never in the romantic sense.
It's all a ruse to keep the shitskins out
If we let the free market handle it we'd all be better off.
it's 98
>That wasn't a direct result of government policy
They pretended it was.
>o bail out six failing banks that caused us to go into even more debt.
Don't forget they also had absolutely no plan for the inevitable crash that everyone saw coming.
It's amazing they still get elected.
at least you're 98% white
No.
The police is more corrupt (especially in Dublin) than it was 20 years ago, and if we are going through a crime wave (just kill everyone in the "crime families" ffs), then it would be better that a handful of police die than the government be given more power and people feel simultaneously insecure and apathetic.
Giving the police guns will make the already r-selected modern Irish people even more cowardly and obsequious, perhaps to Swedish levels.
The police should only get guns to use them on the entire extended families of known "gangsters", and/or if we get some form of second amendment rights (not likely).
>tfw you can't just go out and buy a rifle and a pistol
I raise you the former argentinian government, left the country with a debt equal to the 45,6% of the total PBI of the country.
AFAIK it's only like ~90%, and something like 10% of them are Eastern Euros and early refugees from England.
They just shouldn't have bailed out the banks in the first place. Yeah, the recession would have hit us harder than it did if we hadn't bailed them out, but we'd be strapped with less debt now.
