    Thought there was already a Dublin Monopoly game?

    I remember Kimmage and Crumlin being the cheapest squares.

      I do too- I think we still have it somewhere, they were brown I think and Merrion/Shrewsbury/Alesbury were the most expensive.

    Based on the front pages of the newspapers above, I’d imagine if an oddball, inquisitive, bored alien were to visit Earth, the first item it would purchase would be Hannah Arendt’s, The Human Condition.

    Sorry, I don’t know why I’ve posted twice – I don’t have the option of cancelling either/ either! Or, neither/ neither!

    P.S. Disregard the second, as there’s an ‘I’d imagine if’ missing, otherwise…

    Looks like Jaguar are prepping their workforce for a post Brexit cull. No word from Toyota who’s supply chain will be even more affected because they are the leanest in Britain. They are probably stock piling parts in the hope that they can keep going until the whole thing settles down.

        just taking a little rest, conserving energy for the big surge in demand that will come from the post-brexit boom – but stupid paddy can’t see it because heil merkel hasn’t stamped her jackboot and told him how high to jump yet

          Imagine, if you can, that in a fit of xenophobic madness it was Ireland, rather than the UK, that had voted to leave the EU. Imagine if Heather Humphreys was telling us the EU needed us more than we need them and all about the wonderful trade deals we could make due to our connection with the Irish diaspora. Imagine if Simon Coveney was excitedly telling us about green passports and the new punt notes and coins we’d be getting. Imagine if Leo had offered the same deal to the EU three times, had it rejected three times and insisted the EU were bullying us but would blink first. Imagine if the UK had raised the issue of the border and the GFA but Ireland had responded that it was up to the UK, which was being used by the EU to bully Ireland, to resolve the issue. Imagine if the Healy-Raes were regularly quoted in Irish and British media saying that it was in the UK’s interest to follow our lead and leave.

          Now, with that Bizarro world image in your head ask yourself, how would the UK media report on Éiramach?

            Lads, ye know he’s going to love ye talking about him when he’s not here. Can we just not enjoy the peace for a wee while please?

    Hello digital sales tax.
    Goodbye low corporation tax.
    ” The EU will look after us for standing up to the Brits.”
    Heh,heh,heh.

      Ireland’s reluctance was on the grounds that companies could move to the UK where there was no digital sales tax but now the UK are introducing one.
