Ireland' s 'failed state' narrative gets another boost from record employment numbers. The strange behaviour of MEPs and oil prices. The Man Utd share price gets a boost.
A solution for inequality and investment advice from Farage
Latest jobs numbers show that Irish employment remains at record levels. Perhaps the main constraint right now is that full employment has effectively been reached. The next constraint will be the gathering global economic slowdown. The biggest economic shock since the last one will be the absence next year of a world recession.
Oil prices are not following OPEC’s script. One key benchmark this week fell to levels last seen at the start of this year. Europe is tying itself in knots: it wants Putin’s oil but doesn’t want to finance his war. Somebody needs to point out the contradiction.
Wales has found the Holy Grail. Well, the solution to the scourge of inequality. Make sure you don’t have any rich people.
How to get rich? Buy a football club, entirely with borrowed money. Wait a few years, do absolutely nothing apart from attend a few games and claim to be fans. Inject no new funding into the club. Sell it for 10 times the price you paid for it. Simples.

Thanks David. It is a strong Waterford regional accent i possess. My issues are with Sinn Fein high spend and high tax policies which i believe could be economically destabilising. No problem with United Ireland but i do think it would represent a major political and financial challenge. Report today showing productivity 40 per cent higher in Ireland than in Northern Ireland. Chris and i will address the issues.
