Former Taoiseach Garret FitzGerald has denied suggestions that Ireland needs a European Union bailout, and has accused European authorities of panicking.
I would have thought that we have got a chance of sorting this out ourselves; we don’t need a bailout if we can resolve the problems without it.
So, the whole world is wrong and FitzGerald and the rest of the Irish ruling elite are right.
Let’s be gentle with this fool, he’s old and his mind is obviously rambling.
Maybe Garret thought someone would step in and pay the debts, just like the banks let him off the hook in the 90s.
