We could save loads of money on stuff if we got like immigrants or something to build all our roads and things for free. Just put them up in a camp or something, no bother.

Yeah I can see an immediate flaw here right from the start ...
It's the wrong fight. End of story.
On the streets now - EVERYONE!!!

As opposed to .... I dunno ... a country?
I didn't see Pat Kenny cause I was in work till all hours, but I'm pretty dismayed that it's this sort of easy to stir pointless reteroic he's going for, rather then actually deal with something real or important
what next week? Culchies or Jackeens, who's a bigger bollox?
I work for myself (engineer) and had to drop my rate 10% to the people I currently contract to. Other contractors who were earning more than me took more of a hit.Question for anyone in private sector:
Have you taken a pay cut?
It was needed at the time. If things pick up next year, then people will renegotiate.And, if so, was it needed or was it an opportunistic measure taken by the company because there was an excuse to do so?

The Government is talking about pay cuts but there are pay increases due that were never implemented.
He questioned whether costs had actually come down in the private sector. “In our modelling we felt that wage rates, for example, would fall by 7 per cent over two years in the private sector. However, the latest data suggests that, in spite of what people are saying, costs are not coming down significantly. They are still rising, according to CSO data.”
He said there had been a 7 per cent wage cut in the public sector, and many of his European colleagues were “staggered” this had been accepted by Irish public sector workers.
“In terms of where we go from here, it will be important that it is seen that here is some reaction from the private sector and so far the data suggests that there has been no significant cuts in labour costs or wage rates in the private sector . . . Until we see the data from the CSO, there cannot really be further cuts in the public sector.”
