Alrighty then!!

So much for Ireland being pushed by EU partners to take EU aid.

  • Must synchronise anti crisis measures
  • Forex levels should reflect fundamentals, must avoid political manipulation
  • Countries that need aid must conduct reforms necessary for long-term stability
  • Quality of candidate, not nationality, is what counts for future ECB chief
  • Ireland is in very different situation from Greece, the main problem in Ireland is banks
  • Help for EU staters in trouble cannot be unlimited, must always be to help them help themselves
