@Aidan_Regan Sounds like a politician to me … takes in all the info and waits for approval (algorithms) but eventually gives an answer once the overwhelming narrative is dominating

[George Berkeley 🇮🇪(The Querist)1735 @GBerkeley1]

@RealEddieHobbs Indeed, FYI, An interesting query/mission that was flagged following the set up of the private BoE ,the modern day Anglo Saxon banking system,in his letters he asked in whose interest ?.. and followed up with Joseph Johnston ( Senior Fellow Trinity College,applied economics )

@RTEBrainstorm @JoeHumphreys42 @quiteclare @tcddublin @neasa_neasa @Feljin_J @jenniecstephens His Query 210.Proved to be correct in Ireland,and yet no remedy has been implemented to mitigate us from such an event ever happening again. A case of wilful blindness ? or just to hard to change , to provide an alternative model that works in Irelands favour 🧐 @Thomas_Marois

[George Berkeley 🇮🇪(The Querist)1735 @GBerkeley1]

@RTEBrainstorm @JoeHumphreys42 @quiteclare @tcddublin Indeed,Such was his controversial opening gambit in the Querist where he challenged the Bank of England’s“New”private shareholder Bank model V a Public Stakeholder model in the interest of its people.
A GP policy,yet to be implemented 🤔

[Public Banking Project @public_banking]

In terms of building economic democracy, our theory of change must include the power of #publicbanks to offer or withhold finance in order to advance collective ambitions.

@Conor_Devine @Aidan_Regan It was sad for me to watch,over-preparedness combined with “too much” content/touch point in his answers/responses. (via advisors I’d expect)
While the orang-utan lied/Deflected and did not answer the posed questions. I say…God bless America,they will need it.
Might is right !

[Thomas Marois @Thomas_Marois]

Super workshop @UofGAsbs hosted by Franziska Paul ... academics, trade unions, think tanks ... all interested thinking about what #publicbanks can do for green and just transitions. Amazing!

@JoeHumphreys42 👌Indeed, However, it also helps if we can learn from the past.

[George Berkeley 🇮🇪(The Querist)1735 @GBerkeley1]

@Thomas_Marois Indeed, There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in … So ring those bells that still can ring.. hence,ignore the ( so called ) perfect offering
Keep talking 👍

[George Berkeley 🇮🇪(The Querist)1735 @GBerkeley1]

@Gorman_JG @paddycosgrave Indeed, however Ireland should have delivered for less … delivery of such packages such be overseen with more prudence and accountability

@Aidan_Regan Indeed, what the alternative ?

[Thomas Marois @Thomas_Marois]

Don't miss it ... #Publicbanks can do more than you think, and we have opportunities to make known about what these must be.

Here's one -- I'm in conversation with the @EIB with @Counter_Balance
