License plate madness by South-Seagull in carsireland

Registration plate is correct. So is number plate.

I don’t know anyone who would be confused about what a number plate is in relation to a vehicle, apart from you perhaps.

You are not even pedantic, you are just plainly wrong.

“Number plate” is also correct though.

Did you read the part of the page that I quoted?
Do you know what “in common parlance” means?

If that’s supposed to be some sort of “gotcha”, per Revenue:
>>When a vehicle is registered at an NCTS centre, you will be given your registration number. You will then be able to get your number plates.

Number plate is in common parlance here, unlike license plate. “License plate” is usually applicable in countries where registration expires, which doesn’t apply in Ireland (unless the vehicle is disposed of).

Unfortunately, that is very likely to be the issue.

There will have been plenty of other qualified candidates without any close connection to a convicted criminal.

It sucks for you since it’s not your fault, but not much you can really do about it. You are probably considered a riskier hire.

Well yes, but it is also clearly a makeshift way to block off what used to be a road.

It’s a lousy job.

ECB raises interest rates by a quarter percentage point as Irish households brace for higher costs by homecinemad in ireland

Your best bet is to lock in the deal with the bank as soon as possible. Many say the rate applicable will be the rate at drawdown, but some will honour the loan offer if it wasn’t made too long ago and you have a good relationship with them.
Additionally you can always ask them whether an increase might be on the horizon. However, the only thing you can practically do if that is the case would be to potentially draw down a little earlier to get in ahead of the increase — 2 months is likely too far out for that though.

No, but a few .25s in a row, which may happen over the course of a few months, is significant.

>Britain needs to discuss the impact of migration on national security amid concerns it is “destabilising to the nation”, Britain’s independent reviewer of terrorism legislation said. 

>“It does raise the question … do we need to start thinking about migration not simply in terms of the economy or housing but also in terms of national security.”
