Vote ‘Yes’ for logic, prudence and stability

THE President of ICMSA, John Comer, has stated that any sensible examination of our options with reference to the upcoming referendum can only result in a recommendation to vote ‘Yes’.

He said that prudence, logic and the overwhelming need for funding stability had to be the decisive factors in deciding in favour of a Yes vote and he asked farmers and anyone involved in the agri-food sector not to listen to what he called ‘siren voices’ who were urging people to indulge in a massive gamble with the state’s already precarious finances.

“We may not like the difficult economic position we are in and we may have different views regarding the cause and solution to the economic crisis, but any rational examination of the facts — and any likely unfolding scenarios — will quickly tell you that it is in our best interest to vote ‘Yes’ in the upcoming Referendum,” said Mr Comer, who also confirmed that his Association’s National Council had unanimously endorsed a recommendation to support a ‘Yes’ vote.
