Repeating history

Charlie told us to tighten our belts and Enda says roll up your sleeves.

We remember when Charlie Haughey told us to tighten our belts. While people went cold, hungry and sick, Charlie was buying champagne and a yacht. Now we have Enda Kenny of FG and we must all roll up our sleeves. Yet he and his cabinet are on holidays, while hiring advisers to do the job.
