Okay. So, again, Mr. Duffy, to ask you, the taxpayer has bailed out AIB to the tune of €20 billion-plus. There are ... there is no corporation tax for 20 years perhaps and the billions that come in from NAMA's activities go into AIB, go straight to the ECB loans. Again, could I could ask you would the taxpayer out there be justified or not in feeling deeply aggrieved at this, considering the pressure on their public services, health, education etc., and yet everybody is ahead of them in the queue, it seems to them?
