This is one Eurozone country we must help

Daily Mail
"On the face of it, to ask British taxpayers to help bail out a bankrupt Irish financial system is pretty rich. Not content with virtually beggaring ourselves to tackle the home-grown consequences of the credit crunch, we now have to prop up our even more profligate neighbour. The harsh reality is Britain’s banks lent £140billion to Ireland – with the almost wholly taxpayer-owned RBS leading the pack – and it accounts for seven per cent of UK exports."
