Published today in the New York Times, Simon Johnson and Peter Boone’s analysis of the Irish economy is truly scary. It demolishes the argument that growth in Q1 2010 proves Irish reforms are working. It outlines the scale of the problems that persist in the Irish banks. It identifies the coalition of vested interests working together to ensure that creditors are not forced to share the burden. Scary.

The blog of the 'There is a Better Way' campaign by STUC staff about policy issues that are, or should be, in the news and guest contributors on issues of social justice. Written from a STUC perspective, contributions will often cover areas where there is yet no settled STUC policy and go into areas in more detail than our formal decisions. We welcome debate and we don’t expect everyone to agree with us, but we will remove any comments that are offensive, irrelevant or otherwise annoy.
