To hell with respecting sovereignty then?
Well I guess the Irish know who runs their show now. He who pays the piper calls the tune. Irresponsibility leads to loss of control over your destiny. The Irish have a new master now
When you go begging for a handout to another country, then yes, to Hell with respecting sovereignty. Its just like anything else. You want someone to give you money, you have to obey their wishes or else you don't get the money.
If the Irish wanted sovereignty they would not have signed it away n Maastricht.
LOL - you can't be serious. Or maybe you are and not being disingenuous
The entire intent of the EU & particularly of the Euro is to diminish national sovereignty and subsume it into am European Union governed de facto by unelected bureaucrats.
And they thought what exactly would happen?
The entire world knew this
