Britain is more screwed than we are, they are printing money to pay their bills f.f.s. Give them another year, and you'll see what kind of state they'll be in.Originally Posted by bluefish

Has anybody been able to find the official reason the Irish numbers are "confidential" in the eurostat report?
Hazarding a guess, but may it be that they are released qtrly, so they are waiting for March's data.
Christ I hardly believe that myself, and I typed it.
Can the figures have been so bad that they do not want to release them, there are a lot of very serious declines, can we be worse than Lativa's 11 %

That is probably the most frightening thing I have seen in months.
The report about activity from Jan to Feb, seems very odd. Media still ignoring all of this also...Hazarding a guess, but may it be that they are released qtrly, so they are waiting for March's data.

There is an option for "data not available", so they would just use this if they were waiting for quarterly data?
good point. The state is surely going to have to release the data this month for the first Qtr. Who is going to buy bonds if there is no data to base decisions upon. Its a conundrum indeed.

There's a new blog post about the missing figures, with the hope that someone will explain why they weren't released. Thanks Cavok.

I think we can hazard a guess as to why the figures were not released. The figures are very bad and the government do not want to frighten away potential bond holders. Their bluff will be called sooner rather than later as the figures must be released soon for the 1st Quarter.
Whats happening here is given the less than satisfactory uptaking of the bonds, Biffo is hoping to hold out until November or December, after the locals/ Euros and Lisbon in order to impose the slash & burn budget.
You can take it to the bank (no pun intended) that he will not be able to hold out until then and we could very well see another budget come September.
Thats my 2 cents. Either way we are screwed. The Gardai and army could very well be on the streets by either Xmas or early 2010.
What is worrying is that to many people, the ball hasnt dropped yet. All the talk about a soft landing from Uncle Bert will be shown up.....its a hard, hard fall from 28,000 feet.
