One in five workers are now unemployed in the south east, with our unemployment figures standing at nearly 20%, the highest in the state. While Fianna Fail celebrate the very, very small reduction in national unemployment figures, we in the south east have little to celebrate. Unemployment in the south east region has gone from 6.1% to 18.1% in just two years.
Ask any of our two Fianna Fail TDs in Wexford about this huge increase in unemployment and they will undoubtedly blame the global recession. However other countries effected by the global recession are seeing rising employment, why is Ireland not seeing this? Why? Because we have allowed a bunch of corrupt gombeen politicians to rule this nation for the last thirteen years.

| Where are those Lisbon jobs now I wonder? |
It was a Fianna Fail government that gave away our off shore resources to multinational companies like shell. Resources that are now valued at over €420 billion. It was a Fianna Fail government that promised economic stability if the people of Ireland changed their minds about the Lisbon Treaty and voted the way the government told them to. Remember Fianna Fail are blaming the EU for the necessity of some of its planned savage cuts. It was Fianna Fail who gave the EU this power! It was also a Fianna Fail government that lied to you about the true extent of our economic crisis, and then agreed to put the welfare of corrupt bank managers and greedy property developers before the welfare of the state or the welfare of its citizens.
To put it simply, Fianna Fail have destroyed this nation, and are directly responsible for our mass unemployment and emigration.
I hope we will all remember that the next time, and every subsequent time, we go to the polls.
