Cormac McBreen

He actually riled the people up more than anything else.

I'll give him hats off to him.

He's the best man in the country for uniting the people.

Because I think before that, they were kind of divided.

And he's done everyone a big favour.

Well, it's like this.

There's 65% tax on diesel.

Now, I'm not very educated on the whole political thing or about what different percentages is or what they have to do to Europe.

But what I do know is I'm a man on the ground, and I know what I can run machinery for and what I can't run machinery for.

And I made a decision last night, so I did, to basically call halt to my business.

Because I want to be recession-proof.

I've lived one recession and, by God, I don't want to go through another one.

And I have a lot of employees and I don't want to lose them.

And I want to do my best to try and batten down the hatches now and try and make it through this.

And the only way I see you doing that is getting up and getting out now.

And, like, as I said...

The government and everyone else can butter this up whatever way they want, so they can, and they can play around with figures all they want.

But I've got out of contracting today, which I sat in my office there back a couple of hours ago with four girls and with three of the men, me and men that was with us, and it's all crying over this.

So it is.

This is not a simple decision, so it's not.
