Fr Sean Healy claims Irish poor people now pay gambling debt of German & French banks

[YouKnowWhatIMeanLike]

In response to comments made by Enda Kenny at the World Economic Forum in Davos that the Irish people went mad borrowing during the boom years professional holy man Fr Sean Healy demands the accurate analysis of the causes of the Irish debt mountain and the recognition of the fact, Fr Sean Healy says, that the Irish debt is actually the debt of reckless and gambling German and French banks. Fr Sean Healy goes on to explain that as long as we can't established this fact we can't make other pay for our debt.

Now this is another interesting analyses in line with Gerry Burke and Professore Ed Walsh. Isn't it about time the government takes a position to these claims. I mean are the German and French banks responsible for the mess we are in? If so they did an excellent job in hiding in the underground. The firts time I have heard about German banks in Ireland was when the Irish Depfa bank plc in the IFSC was rescued by the German taxpayer to the tune of €150bn. I always heard about Irish, British and US banks. There is almost no evidence for Fr Sean Healy expert analyses and he still seems to know better.

Enda it's time to tell us the truth what's going on? I agree with Sean Healy in that we need an accurate analysis, one way or another. The Nyberg report doesn't cut it.

Have the religious orders handed over the CASH they promised under the disgraceful agreement with FF ?

Didn`t think so.

Sean Healy is a professional beggar and shill for the burgeoning aid industry where "administration" costs eat up massive amounts of that aid.

Just cos he wears a collar shouldn't blind us to that fact

he also comes from the land where somebody else pays for everything - if he said anything different - i;d be shocked.

I suppose being a priest - he is big into forgiveness with a wave of the hand.

populist nonsense.

Well said. No matter how much we give the "most vulnerable" he'd be on air demanding more.

How is Sean Healy still a priest? I never see him in a dog collar and I understan he has large earnings.

May he 'Take the plank out of his own eye ....' they even changed the name of their organisation so as not to be associated with CORI. Still the same organisation and he should be forcing those who he part of to pay their bill!

The Irish Banks were all deemed to be investment grade, and were all supposed to be properly regulated, so it is not quite true to claim that investing in them was gambling.

[John Biffo]

Healy is a vested interest crone who makes a living around 'putting'out' the so-called disadvantaged.


Healy would be far better off telling the 'disadvantaged' to get off their fat arses and try to do something for themselves, for once

[stopdoingstuff]

Yeah, it's all Healy's fault.
