Time to leave eurozone and seek new trading partners

SARKOZY and Merkel are acting undemocratically as they try to hoist their own agendas on member states. Regardless of our current crisis, I don’t remember electing them to act on my behalf, nor would I ever wish them to.

I love my country with a passion and it grieves my heart to listen to Michael Noonan say that France and Germany would ultimately have a right to decide how Ireland would manage its budgetary and fiscal policy.

Should this Franco-German pact become a reality, monetary union is what lies beneath German intentions. It has been since its reunification with East Germany when it replaced the mark and based its whole economic structure on the euro. It has to have control of the whole show at all costs. Just think about that for a second — it makes me shiver.
