Labour is "mission-driven", says Keir Starmer. But the last thing anyone should want is a Government with a mission, says David McGrogan. That's because a Government with a mission needs conscripts. That's you and me.

Pig Out at Irish Nationwide

category national | anti-capitalism | news report author Tuesday March 24, 2009 18:12author by Final Nail Party Report this post to the editors

Give Us Back Our Money !

Exclusive pictures and footage from the head office of Irish Nationwide Building Society this morning, where Chief Executive, Michael Fingleton, was deciding how to spend the 1,000,000 euro bonus paid to him AFTER the hastily agreed government bank guarantee scheme was put in place last year.

Mr Fingleton is also very pleased about his pension arrangements, through which he is the sole beneficiary of a €27.6 million pension scheme.

Other workers have to take a pay cut to help out the banks, and a special "pension levy" has been announced for the public sector, even for workers who don't qualify for a pension.

When the police were caled this morning (things got a bit loud) they said the public was barred from entering the building as it is private property.

Irish Nationwide is being helped by the government's scheme to guarantee the liabilites of the bank with the public's money.

Asked when the next protest might be, the guards were told that something might be happening on Monday, March 30th.

Some Day Soon , and with the help of The Legal Eagles it would be soooo nice to take a case to the highest court in the land in order to get a ruling to
state in law , as to why it is legal for Banksters to be given OUR Money without our consent , as far as i know when we the public apply for a ''lend ''we
are subjected to character checks credit checks and god knows what else to receive a cheque from the banks and the money boys.

If their application for a ''lend ''has appeared in my post please ignore this , maybe the postman has it for tomorrow ,i wont hold my breath ......
