I support a Union of European democratic states.
But like David McWilliams, Eamon O’Cuiv, Richard Boyd Barrett, Shane Ross…I am
voting Níl in this referendum.
A Yes vote will lead to a further loss of sovereignty
on top of what was handed over (without the will of the people) by the last
unpatriotic government in order to bail out their greedy banker and property
speculator friends. The future of generations to come was mortgaged to pay for
their personal and institutional gambling debts.
The crisis was caused by this old boys
network. But it us that are facing austerity and losses for something that we
did not cause. Our taxes are being used to pay for the debts of private banks
not to create jobs, sustainable growth and development.
As well as the wages of ordinary
hardworking people, our schools, hospitals, and community services are being
robbed once again. Yet not one corrupt banker, property speculator, civil
servant or politician has been prosecuted and made pay for their crimes. They
still enjoy the high life with all their taxpayer-funded exorbitant pensions,
expenses, consultancies, NAMA fees…
A Yes vote will further erode democracy as
our lives will be decided even more by unelected bureaucrats who are not
answerable to the will of any electorate.
Instead let our political leaders fight to write off the banks debts and spare us these cuts.
