In 2003 who opposed benchmarking? Did Labour or the shinners?
No, FG with 31 TDs stood out alone to oppose the scheme. There's a difference between complaining about something and taking a principled stand that you believe this is wrong.

And theres a difference between responding to public complaints (and there were many) in the name of a principled stand, and actually having a coherent plan to get us out of this mess and the will to follow it through.

Enda Kenny has joined the "reform the regulator game" about 3 months after the Greens
Remember how timid he was re Bertie Ahern's finances ? Well it's the same thing here.
Worse still is that as he's not in government with any responsibility he had a big long snooze/happy holiday over Christmas
and all he can come up with is FIRE THEM !
He hasn't even suggested any alternate configuration of the regulator.
Kenny is a failed, lazy lightweight - he's had months of snoozy time and he ends up where the Greens were months back ?

"Yawn , am I alive yet ?"
The Regulator is very busy.
No, not investigating the banks but small credit unions. No detail is too small for the eagle-eyed supervisor.
My local credit union is run entirely by volunteers and takes a cautious approach to lending yet IFSRA has ordered it to cut its dividend and not give a rebate to borrowers. Others in the region have been instructed similarly.
What are these guys doing with AIB etc.? I would love to know the details but "commercial confidentiality" is supreme as Mr Lendahand said.
