    With all due respect Irish GDP is vastly inflated with the double Irish set up for large multinationals.

    A large part of Irish GDP does not feed through to Ireland. If you strip out the multinationals who don't actually spend their money in Ireland, you'll see a lower GDP more in line with Northern Ireland.

    Ireland is almost a Tax Haven for the blue chips.
