Hi All, There is still a lot of frustration, anger and hardship out there. We must continue to keep voicing our concerns, radio, TV, newspapers, social gatherings, friends and family using everything in our power and all resources available to us, email, letters, texts, phone calls, protests, and word of mouth. We are being heard and most importantly we are getting results. Just look at the events since Irish People’s Union was formed. No other bank has raised its Mortgage rates. NAMA has not sailed through under the radar as it would have. Significant changes have been made to NAMA not least the amount proposed to be payed is lower than the initial amount. We must still keep the pressure on this to get a better deal for EVERYONE. FAS has been highlighted and significant changes were made and as mentioned on Frontline last night, it has been proposed to change the Board. We must get an answer to where the car went, it can’t be that hard to locate. The Ceann comharile was forced to resign the same day IPU were on National radio calling for this. (This has never happened in the history of the state, proving we can influence and have accountability) The Seanad is under review. Finally, we here politicians talking about accountability, and promising they will and must do their bit to put our country back on its feet. It is in no small part, due to the efforts of you, the members of our organisation and the hard work of our small but dedicated team of volunteers, that these results have been achieved. It did not happen by accident!! Our message is being heard and RESULTS, as we promised in our mission statement are being delivered. We must double our efforts to grow our numbers, because with more numbers, comes more voice and more volunteers, and more RESULTS ! Get up, Go out and spread the word, that we will not lie down ever again.
We should all get behind this organisation, the Irish Peoples Union are getting results.

Is the IPU going to take credit for everything?
No bank has raised interest rates? WTF?
I didn’t sign up to that.
If Irish banks are forced to keep interest rates down then all the saving of the banks is for nothing cause they’ll be bust very soon anyway or does this person think the tax payer should pay their taxes directly to the banks to ensure the fools who bought property during the boom are bailed out.
F*** the Irish peoples union.
No,I won’t be getting behind this organisation that was primarily set up as a response to interest rate hikes. I also have a problem if I have to pay,through my taxes to “ease the pain” for any of these mortgage holders.

Hmm, I think that the original author should do a bit of research on correlation versus causation.
Well they’ve already succeeded in making sure the people only use one paragraph.
Lack of whitespace doesn’t help with demented ramblings.

Well that’s the way world rolls these days, American Presidents get international peace prizes for what they said they would do before anything is actually done.

“Everything good that happened since we formed is thanks to us”.
Do do they sell rocks to keep tigers away too?
I was going to use that little gem to illustrate the lack of logic in the original post. But I think everyone knows what we mean.

I get the meaning but what’s the origin?

IPU _ The Little Darlings
I caused the Dow to lose 1.5% this afternoon. I just wrinkled my nose and it happened. (The TV changed channel too…).
My mutt farted on his daily walk the other day and a global warming bulletin was issued by Ralph Nader

In early 2007 I sold my house, banked the money and started renting, since then the property market has been going “correcting”
