Jacksgranda Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I don't know if incompetence is better than corruption. And we've most of the main players back in government! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I don't know if incompetence is better than corruption. And we've most of the main players back in government! Including the furtive Deputy FM, a willing exponent of the scheme in her time as Agriculture Minister. At least Big Arlene appears to be taking her failings on the chin, for what it’s worth? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Big Arlene appears to be taking her failings on the chin, for what it’s worth? I think she has been pretty open about how slapdash she was about this whole affair. Apparently she relied too much on her SPAD to read the detail - which he didn't either - so there was only one way this was going to end. ALL MLAs are responsible for this fiasco along with the Civil Service, the external consultants and the SPADS. Some more culpable than others, of course, but nobody comes out of this debacle looking good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got all their suppliers to install bio mass boilers, therefore reducing their (suppliers) costs and producing better chickens and then screwing down the price they paid their suppliers. https://www.irishtimes.com/news/ireland/irish-news/poultry-farmer-feels-he-is-a-scapegoat-of-the-failed-rhi-scheme-1.4201211 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
