Tons of gold found in Wexford, Large oil field found off the coast of Cork... This United Ireland idea is starting to sound better by the week! ;-) But of course i doubt the ordinary Irish citizen will see any benefit from these finds unfortunately.

What will our t a x-t a k e be from this I wonder.. Buttons I bet, much like the t a x t a k e from our oil/gas finds. Yes, folks we're down there with Cameroon and Nigeria when it comes to royalties from one's own resources..

Wexford`s Precious Stones belong to the People of Wexford, as much as any other example of Natural, Historical, or Cultural Heritage ! What makes Kerry Gold, Guinness Beer, Enda Kenny, or Kate Middleton, think they are entitled to any more of the Easter Uprising than the next person !

Call me a skeptic, but usually these announcements are an attempt to influence the stock price.

Unleash the shovels lads, instead of digging praties we'll be digging lumps of gold
