If Ireland had a population of 80000, you would be correct.

Don't panic....the Irish will, after much hand wringing, agree to the IMF that will put them into poverty for a generation or two, or at least until they've paid off the 80 billion (isn't that a million per head?), and we get to keep our stock portfolios intact.

If they default or leave the Euro that'll put everyone else in the "poo" as well. Will probably trigger a mass European bankruptcy

BoI shares 23% down today, is it worth a punt (sic) on Irish Bank shares?

Anyone fancy doing another "Barclays". I'll pass.
