Well.. the Irish economy is in rather different circumstances to ours.
If you remember at the time, the Conservatives and Labour agreed that the banks needed saving. Labour have however cost us billions of pounds by overspending before the recession even hit. Now we're spending hundreds of millions a week paying interest to bankers on all the debt the last Government left the new Government.
