Incitement to hatred, if it was incitement to self hatred the Government would be guilty on all counts.

The government will never publicly admit that they have fucked up because of the political losses they will incur by doing so.

Accordingly there are three options – a general election which would paralyse the political machinery for the months up to the election; continue as we are with the opposition lambasting the government to absolutely no effect; or have the opposition actually work with the government and take the unpopular action that is necessary to resolve the situation.

Without cross-party support that hard action will never be possible.

Unpalatable as it may be, the likes of Fitzpatrick and Goggin are those who have the greatest knowledge of the way the banking system works, and they are the ones best placed to implement the measures which should be taken. It will not be popular action, and they should not be rewarded for doing so – rather this is what they should do to make up for the mess they have gotten us into.

Your approach would have us doing the same on a political level. Everyone in the current administration and their supporters who they have appointed to boards around the country, are the people who have brought us to this abyss. They have failed to admit their culapility, and acknowledge how they have truly fucked this country up. Until they do so, we cannot really move forward. To that end, the opposition have a duty to bang the drum of governmental incompetence until the government accept that they have fucked up, and realise that they played a massive role in that. Otherwise, all we will get is what we have got to date – a sticking plaster response utterly inadequate to our crisis.
