Later today (European time), Irish voters will be asked to vote Yes or No on the Treaty for Stability, Co-ordination and Governance.
The Yes campaign, lead by Ireland’s establishment parties, claim a No vote could risk European financial support for Ireland’s battered economy.
The No side, lead by a resurgent Sinn Fein, say the Treaty would entail a catastrophic loss of hard-won sovereignty for the Republic.

It may be a ‘no’ as the turnout is very low, partly due to bad weather. If Ireland leaves the Euro due to rain, maybe the europhiles can blame it on global warming?
Ireland has been a protectorate for years now. They have 30bn of wind turbine construction going on; the FIT tariffs that come with it will hang around their neck like an albatross for the next 15 years and more. Big Wind sucks them dry like it and Big Solar did with Portugal, Spain and Italy (the hills around Rome are glittering like a Disco ball from all the PV panels). The connection between this capital misallocation and the PIGS defaults will not be reported anywhere in the EU.

But, how come they haven’t learned this?!?! Before this madness, they had problems, but they were fixable. The greens use a word…..sustainable…… this isn’t sustainable.
