Also not every container is checked they are sample checked and remember Northern Ireland is a small rural economy as is the republic we are not talking say Britain vs Germany then I could see your point


The Republic is a small rural economy.

That would be the same Republic with the fastest growing economy in Europe. An economy driven primarily by the activities of multi national companies who operate there.

Will you ever stop making things up just to suit your argument. It is embarrassing



Fastest growing economy in Europe is not really saying much is it ? The only economy growing less than the EU is Antarctica. But I take your word for it. However fastest is not the same as biggest small things are easy to grow fast by the maths. But yes agreed its more than a small rural economy but it's not a big economy is it ? And I understand it supplies only 4% of Northern Ireland's trade which is peanuts

The other thing about the Irish economy is a few years ago it was booming then it collapsed the EU declined to bail it out it was left to the great Satan Britain to save their economy. So if there is fast growth it's probably due to recovering. But to repeat only 4% of trade is supplied by the republic to Northern Ireland so what the EU are concerned about god knows

That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

No one knows what will happen in or out so why not stay positive? Nothing to be gained by being constantly negative about it.

Not factually correct doesn't even start to do it justice.

Ireland borrowed £3.2 billion from the UK.

It received approximately €67 billion in loans from EU/IMF

Stan you are a liar and you really are embarrassing yourself on an almost daily basis now.

Once again you are wrong. Yes the IMF and EU long term loans to Ireland as grants and financing as they do all the poorer countries in the EU they no doubt do the same with the ex soviet countries and once Albania and Macedonia join no doubt they will get long term loans. What I am talking about is the emergency in 2010 when Ireland at one point was wondering whether it could pay its police force and other key services. The EU snubbed Ireland it was left to Britain to provide an emergency loan. Britain had no obligation to do so they did because they are our near neighbours with close ties and dare I say it goodwill. You are calling me a liar out of frustration I am not always right but at least I try to understand events do research you clearly don't bother.

What's the none issue?
