Absolutely baffling that this is the batshit crazy thought process. On one hand they will never address the poor wages - they would rather tell the defence forces personnel not to have children -> https://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/arid-30870171.html

And would rather recruit people from outside Ireland that will accept lower pay/conditions...which will in turn transform our defence forces into mercenaries?!  :-X  :-X
