This, finally, is proper European-standard defence spending, and it’s completely focused on all the right areas. Patrolling our seas, guarding our airspace, and protecting our cyber infrastructure. It’s pretty much what every sensible person has been asking for – not a huge expansion designed to prevent an invasion, but an honest force able to know who’s in our area of interest, be they Russian submarines or Columbian drug cargos.
So what we cutting for this? Or are we raising taxes?
The Irish like to wear their neutrality as a badge of honor, but it’s not a virtue if you can’t defend yourself. We’re not restrained and measured, we’re just weak.

Can’t even house everyone.
Was watching a Simon Whistler video last night about how much money some countries have started putting into their defence, especially Europe. https://youtu.be/XJctWbPX4iU?si=obawEUIblh7cRnKo
That’ll definitely sort out the housing crisis…

That’s a good lad Paddy,
now put your costume on and do as you’re told.
