IN relation to the budget just announced this week, I would like to point out a number of misgivings. As a member of the 25 to 35-year-old generation whom became to be known as the “Celtic cubs” I believe we are more aptly to be known in the future as the “Celtic cons”.

I AM not an expert, but how would it be if, instead of recapitalising AIB and Bank of Ireland, the Government had incorporated a new bank, maybe run by An Post or some of the workers let go by Ulster Bank and funded with the €7billion allocated to AIB and BoI?
