Re: Irish mess
The UK has a vested interest in keeping the Irish banking system alive; for example, there's an Irish bank that issues notes in Sterling.
Doesn't seem to me to be in anyone's interest for trading partners to go bust. Tough times ahead for our Irish friends, though. |

You only have to look at the strong european countries like Germany which still have a strong home production capacity. All the ships that arrive from China bring loads, but take nothing but empty containers. Its the same in the USA Bluy Blitish
