   O Cuiv’s performance is a fine example of why our bond spreads are now at 6% and rising, isn’t it?

   I like the part where he invokes the gods at 3:40 – 3:52 in the first clip.
   “we’ll know the size of the hole then…. please god”.
   It would be funny if it wasn’t so pathetic.

   O Cuiv was a total disaster and Sommerville properly nailed him down. No longer will traditional FF rants from the likes of the minister wash with the public.

   The premier representative of neo-republican Irish aristocracy said “if we analyse the depost base of Anglo Irish …” Yes, as an Irish peasant, I do believe that “we” would like to see contents of said deposit base – also the contents files relating to bondholders: who are so vital to our country that they are not allowed to face the consequences of their own betting losses. Yes-yes Mr O Cuiv, “we” do need this information!
