QUESTIONS FOR ANGLO AND THE GOVERNMENT

QUESTIONS FOR ANGLO AND THE GOVERNMENT REGARDING THE NEEDLESS AND RECKLESS SQUANDERING OF BILLIONS OF EURO OF TAXPAYERS MONEY


1 Anglo has always claimed that they were engaging in the current strategy in relation to Quinn in order to recoup money for the taxpayers. Given that, prior to the Quinn Group being seized from Sean Quinn on the 14th April 2011, he was up to date with all repayments, how much has Anglo recouped to date for the Irish people under their strategy.

2 How much of our money has been spent to date on legal and PR costs? Since the chairman of Anglo, Alan Dukes conceded that it made no financial difference where Sean Quinn was made bankrupt, how can Anglo justify spending in the region of 500,000 euros of public money in challenging the bankruptcy of a man who was born and reared and spend 40 years working in Northern Ireland.

3 How does all of this compare with the proposal that was submitted by Quinn which offered all of his companies to the Irish State until all monies were repaid (despite the question of the legitimacy of the debt). The proposal is a matter of public record and was eliminated without just consideration for inappropriate reasons (can elaborate on this). It guaranteed the retention of all jobs and the creation of 1800 additional jobs. To date, 1200 jobs have been lost under the current strategy with thousands more certain to be lost.

4 Why did Micheal Noonan mislead and lie to the entire Irish population on 14th April 2011, when he said in media interview(can be provided)that the bondholders had taken a big hit-in the region of 50% in the Anglo deal on Quinn. The bondholders took no hit whatsoever. If the Minister lied about this matter in such a blatant manner, what else is he telling lies about?

5 How is Anglo going to explain the fact that Richard Woodhouse misled the High Court in Belfast in December when asked about the circumstances of how Sean Quinn found himself in Dublin on 14th April, the day Anglo seized the Quinn Group in a mafia style fashion, prior to the legitimacy of Quinn debts being established in a court of law? Woodhouse claimed that Mr. Quinn would have been in Dublin anyway with the petitions (90,571) and to protest on that day. This is a blatant lie and can be proven to be so. Sean Quinn played no part in the petitions or the trip to Leinster house, and the Central Bank. The truth is that he was summoned to Anglo Head Office by the chairman of Anglo Irish Bank, Alan Dukes in a cowardly and devious act to ensure that Quinn was away from his profitable and reputable company and to facilitate the military style coup.

"Concerned Irish Citizens" has a membership in excess of 90,000 and now formally invite Anglo and our elected representatives to respond to the above questions. Those who have nothing to hide, hide nothing.

It sounds very much as if Mr Quinn is right in thinking that there was a personal vendetta against him. What difference did it make to Anglo whether he was made bankrupt in the north or the south? It made absolutely no financial difference to them or the taxpayer. Were they afraid that Mr Quinn would once again grow a business from nothing, and if so why? Are they so afraid of one man? How can Anglo justify spending such huge amounts of taxpayers money making sure that Mr Quinn became bankrupt in the south, when the outcome of the case absolutely NO financial difference to the taxpayer. They are taking us all for a ride. They think that we are all idiots. We are being played like puppets on a string by them all and Mr Quinn us getting the brunt of it!!

Anglo and the Government has consistently refused to answer these questions. Why? It is a very serious allegation to make that the Minister for Finance lied to the people of Ireland, yet he has failed to clarify why he told them that the bondholders had taken a hit of 50% on the Anglo deal on QUinn.The silence is deafening and it is probable that it will take the mother of all tribunals to "out" the people who misappropriated bilions of euros of our money in this farce.
