CONTROVERSIAL
semi-state company Irish Water have today defended their inflated prices
claiming the cost of stupidity is higher in Ireland than anywhere else in the
world.
In a rare
interview with WWN, chairman Rose Hynes, who’s actually a woman, blasted a
Sunday Business Post report yesterday stating that a London-based
consulting firm found that the projected running costs at the company are
double that of similar companies in the UK.

“People
living in Ireland are at least twice as thick as those living in
London,” she said. “If you look at dentistry, pharmaceuticals and other
necessities, you will see Ireland charges far more than anywhere else in
Europe. That’s because people here have a track record in naivety. The price of
stupidity here is at least three times higher than anywhere else. Are you
following?
“Why are
we even having this conversation? Do you even understand a word I’m saying to
you right now? Hello, anyone home?”
It was
previously revealed that an overall budget of up to €180 million was set aside
to establish Irish Water, with €86 million of that to be spent on outside
contractors.
However, €1.9
billion has already being spent in its first two years alone. “We’ve ran a bit
over, so what? Just look at the state of the water system in this country.
We’ll probably need another two or three billion to sort it out by the
time we’re done.
“What’s a
few bill in this day and age anyway?” she added.
Irish Water will attempt to start charging citizens for water in
October this year.
