No faith that State will ever prosecute bankers

Farmers have no faith in the State’s ability to prosecute anybody for the banking crisis, with over 90% believing not a single banker will see the inside of a prison cell.

The Irish Examiner/ICMSA survey found the negativity was shared almost equally among men and women.

A remarkable 99% of farmers over 65 felt that nobody would be jailed for the banking crisis, compared to 86% of those farmers under the age of 35.
