Brexit.

I'm no economist but if the Govt are pumping £30bn into the economy how exactly does that stave off inflation will that not make it worse?

Of course it makes it worse. But people need to be able to pay their bills and if they do not get some loot off the government then they will be looking for pay increases.

Are they not making that money back from a winfall tax from these companies that are making billions off the back of people using their energy?

Who are the "they",  which government is being referred to here?
Surely when somebody on this forum writes "the Government are pumping"  it's referring to the Irish gov, even if the sum of money involved would only be used in the context of Government using state resources in order to bail out failed corrupt banks.

in case you haven't noticed, this board is mainly nordies who refer to westminster as 'the government' 

this is so prevalent in society there that nobody would even think of the dublin administration

You don't have to specify that it's the Irish gov, just mention the government. We are Irish, this is Ireland, not Britain, France or Germany, the default government is the Irish government.
i.e. if you consider that Michael D is your president.

Most people use the phrase 'northern ireland' when posting on here but never seem to use it when speaking.

Yeah, the same Irish government that turned a blind eye to the atrocities that went on in the north of the island, that Irish government that was glad to partition the country. They seem a lovely bunch to be fair

[Rossfan]

Partition happened in 1920.
"Southern Ireland" which was still born, became the Irish Free State in 1922
None of the present Government were around then.
If there was no Irish Independent State and no Irish Government no one from the 6 Cos could have Irish Citizenship or an Irish passport.

Nordies have long memories and grievances aplenty for events which happened 100 years ago  
Is Michael D  your president or not?
When it comes to referring to the government, I'd refer to them as the ('effin) government for better or for worse, if I am referring to a foreign government I'd name the country -  French, British etc.
There is no way that I would refer to the British government as the government.

The north want no part of a 32 county independent republic,

too wedded to a status quo which suits them just fine

Unbelievable. Seems to have seen one or two nationalist posts that offended him so we're all the same now and more or less unionists. Absolute relentless bollocks.
