I don’t wish to start yet another FIGHT! but Fintan O’Toole’s excellent column in the Irish Times this morning asks an important question: Who Will Be The Last To Suffer For The Mistake of Austerity?
To help him answer can I suggest he has a look around his newsroom. The Irish Times has gently urged us to embrace austerity since this fiasco began and, like the property boom, will be the very last to shout ‘stop’.  And no one will ‘suffer’.

 

FIGHT!
