Good article, considering the amount of people with variable mortgages and the outrage over the tracker mortgages it may be a good time to renew the campaign. I think its an interesting approach Brian Hayes is taking in asking to EU to see if there is a cartel with the banks in this country and...

Thanks for the reply, sorry when i say joining them together I mean AIB and EBS together with BOI as the other pillar bank. My point here is that when AIB bought EBS for 1 Euro was there any thought for the implications of what that might mean for the mortgage holders in EBS now that AIB decide...
