But hey, here’s two, near breadcrumb lumps of money coming (don’t forget to vote for us next time – local elections 2024) and further good news! Profits are way up for private building companies. So, the news is not all that bad. Your government loves you – well, till your money runs out. …Then you are to be considered a burden.

P.S. “DON’T VOTE FOR OPPOSITION. THEY ARE THE BAD GUYS!“
Fianna Fail, Fine Gael and The Green Party thanks you.
