        they got lots of shale here........no doubt they will share it with the socialists........

        but it will take capitalist money to get it out.....

            lots of oil and gas around the coast of ireland....it costs a lot to get it out....so as oil prices are now...it becomes cost effective.....

            somerset sits on a bed of shale.....the get it now by fracking....

            in the early 1900s there were shale works in somerset.....but they could not make it pay....

            never mind katie......she will wait for her handout......

              Gas is off the coast of Mayo they gave it away to Shell. There has been talk of oil of the Dalkey coast but sure they'll give that away as well.

                i don't know what yopu mean....gave it away...

                the cost is enormous.....so the have to give companies the rights to extract.........they bear the losses, so should also reap the rewards.....

                  What losses will they make. If they are in it to make a loss then they won't stay in bussiness. What will the Irish government get out of it maybe a fraction of the real value.

                    look at bp...they are trying to get away with onlyb paying 15 billion in the gulf of mexico.....a high risk business

                    the government, and the people benifit by taxation........

                    and as i said, there are few people in ireland..it would not take much to make the country rich........

                    oil is at a premium at the moment...

                      the extraction of gas from shale by fracking......is already under way....they were the cause of recent small earthquakes, in the blackpool area....

                      no doubt the very first time for many couples.........that the earth moved.

                        the people of Blackpool might dispute that......

                            the cost in energy to 'refine' shale is very considrable , with a very high carbon emissions, canada is under fire at the minute , she has huge reserves of shale .

                              I read the following and was appalled. Now I am not criticising ordinary people just those who are out to make billions without caring about the environment. The Great Barrier Reef
