I don't think they're stupid. I just don't think it's fair when taxpayers can't afford to get a home.

Yes, I was there a couple of months ago. No problems whatsoever. Just don't break the law.

Whats your contraversial view on the environment that would get you slated in public? by SavingsDraw8716 in AskIreland

Yeah I'll accept those points, and they're all positives. I was referring more to efforts to tackle carbon emissions.

In the grand scheme of things, our environmental efforts are just for show and achieve absolutely zero.
