It’s not Christmas for the ordinary people who see no end to austerity

Dear Santy.

You are a little bit late coming to Ireland this year. All the big boys have gotten large gifts during the year and all that is left now for the little boys and girls Santy is whatever is at the end of the bag.

Santy, my good old friend, you have been upstaged by the IFA who gave millions to those who sat at their top tables , the bankers gave each other large payouts while Mother Nama simply gave away property portfolios to those who nodded in her direction .
