NAMA: The Only Show in Town or Criminal Theft?

The Government has proposed a National Assets Management Agency as a solution to the banking crisis. Its supporters describe is as “the only show in town” but increasing numbers of critics are calling it the biggest theft ever perpetrated on the Irish taxpayer.

David McWilliams hosts a panel including Green Party finance spokesperson Senator Dan Boyle; banking expert Peter Matthews; Margaret E. Ward of The Irish Times; and Government representatives to explain the plan and allow the audience separate the fact from the fiction.

Plus musical satire from Paddy Cullivan; comedy sketches from The Emergency: Live; and film from Doris/McGee Productions.
