       Hot Press interview with Brian Cowen, 23 May 2007

    "I think it is fair to say that 2007 represents a turning point for the Irish economy".
       Tansey, Paul and Beesley, Arthur (19 October 2007). "Tough Budget on way as growth slows down"". The Irish Times. Retrieved on 2008-05-07.

    "However, we must not lose sight of the fact that the fundamentals of the economy are still good."

A few years ago I cited lack of confidence in Biffo economics for our sad pulling out of a business venture based in Palmerstown. So sad to see that those who stepped in after I pulled our consortium out lost their shirt and 14 good people lost their jobs.

He was a disaster. He couldn't even use the EU infrastructure funding for the good of the people. Biffo really summed the man up. Mind you, not saying successive leaders over here have been much better but when I could buy in Italy and sell in Ireland without Barclays getting a single penny in currency charges, things should have got better for our people over there, not bloody worse. .
