"Mr President, with the IMF, the European Central Bank and the Commission introducing onerous conditions, it is clear that billions of euros of cutbacks are being introduced in Ireland. Jobs will be lost, public services will be significantly curtailed, and income tax will be raised for people on low wages. The banks will keep their profits while the poor, the sick, pensioners and other vulnerable groups will be the losers in all of this. Aid from Europe this is not, and therefore we strongly oppose it. Instead of seeking a mandate to introduce these cuts, after the IMF and the EU had examined the account books, the Irish Government decided that there would be no election until this budget had been enacted. There was another way to go, and the Irish Government chose not to go that way. They decided to act for the benefit of their friends in the banks and not for that of the plain people of Ireland."@en1
