Varadkar said: “I don’t want ratification delayed and drifting indefinitely and for Ireland to stand by and watch other EU member states ratify it ahead of us, as the majority have already. He defended the introduction of the ICS as a dispute resolution mechanism, in response to Opposition TDs’ claims that it will be a court that will favour corporations over the interests of ordinary citizens.
He added: “Under the ICS, states could never be forced to change legislation, only to pay fair compensation in cases where an investor is deemed to have been treated unfairly, under the specific grounds detailed. “A special court for corporations will, I believe, act as a major deterrent for governments in passing laws that might benefit citizens, but may not benefit corporations.
Ireland 's 'commitment' to free trade has led our country to become a severely indebted, vassal state, widely recognised as Tax Haven.. Hardly the vision of Ireland Mick Collins had before he jumped out of his armoured car in Cork!
He hasn't a clue what he's talking about,he is going to have to leak it to a friend so he can get an editted version LeoVaradkar leotheleak

So a rent freeze would harm landlords? Landlords who own a second or third home. So keep rent rising because landlords might suffer The Fine Gael way I suppose!
