During this time, year after year it was comforting to hear things like "another record year for tax receipts", or "tax receipts have significantly exceeded expectations". And what do the "shower" entrusted with our finances and the power to strategically manage and develop that growth do? They blow it of course. On public sector waste, on a joke of a health service and a regressing education system. Comforting? No. Progress? No. Gross misconduct and misappropriation of hard earned money? Absolutely YES.

Being a Donegal person I am very dissapointed in Tanaiste Mary Coughlan, she is an excellent austronaut as she is on a different planet most of the time and has ignored Reports given to her about FAS Corruption and job-fixing. http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=J8mff9CvF7k FAS executives including Peter McLoone try to say the great work FAS has done. Well with one billion some money did get spent training people, but to breakdown FAS had 22million a week. Thats the cost of a new hospital for Letterkenny, so where did FAS spend the money? The entire FAS Board has to be SACKED and a complete restructure of the entire training and education system to re-educate and help people start new business. The FAS fat cats should be put on the dole and see how they like it. Mr molloys golden handshake should be withheld until the full investigation into the FAS Corruption is finalised.
