Funny thing not in The Irish Times today – The Guardian has three paragraphs in it’s front page lead story in which the German Finance minister attacks the UK and Irish budget deficits, which the IT manages not to mention. Is this a case of ‘don’t frighten the voters again?
Now, admittedly, it is the UK and Gordon Brown’s banking rescue which gets most of Herr Steinbruck’s ire, but he does bundle us in there and talks about the need for a quick return to sound public finances. A quick scan and search of the Indo and the Examiner does not turn up his comments either.
