offsite link Super Flu? More Like Super Hype Sun Dec 14, 2025 13:05 | Dr David Livermore
Present case numbers for the ?K? variant Super-Flu don't justify the hype, says Dr David Livermore. Perhaps it's the media lust for fear porn, or perhaps the Government's fear of the strike, but it's not a Super-crisis.

In the good old days, children's comics had one purpose: to be funny. Now, the Beano sees its mission as 'mental health' ? and has its own in-house child psychology unit to keep it on message, says Steven Tucker.

Bondholders Show Their True Nature

Bondholders threaten Ireland with deliberate financial terrorism

A very interesting story appeared in the telegraph yesterday showing how financial terrorists are holding us all to ransom. It showed exactly what sort of people these bondholders we are all bailing out are.

A very interesting story appeared in the telegraph yesterday showing how financial terrorists are holding us all to ransom. It showed exactly what sort of people these bondholders we are all bailing out are.

Whilst investors were on a call with the Minister for Finance, Brian Lenihen, there was a technical hitch and instead of it being a one way address, it became a two way call. The investors proceeded to demonstrate the contempt they hold us in by making ape noises and threatening to short sell shares in Anglo which might have the effect of crashing share value altogether. They also threatened to take Ireland to court over haircuts made on Anglo loans and threatened to force a default of Anglo. These are the people over whom we and our children will be in austerity for the next ten years to pay back for their financial gambling. I say stop this madness and suspend the bailout of these people before the money makes its way out of the country never to be seen again and let these hedge funds and the blackmailing financial parasites running them live with their bad investments.

It's well worth reading this article to get a glimpse what is going on between these small number of sacred bondholders and our political representatives behind closed doors.
