Scary stuff, especially given the UK's exposure.

    Heard on the news last night that the UK are bailing them out... after all we are billions and billions of £ in debt, what's another few hundred million!!!

    As I understand it, we'd lose a lot more if Ireland did go bust due to our trade with them.

    This is also true - they are on of our biggest trading partners... we should make a few million in interest from the "loan" though

    I can lend them £100.

    I'd want it back as a post of gold hand delivered by leprechauns though.
