Homelessness in
Iceland - what can be
done?
Icelanders have been positively glowing
(not to mention gloating) since the EFTA
Court ruled in their favour in a historic
verdict on the Icesave case. And who could
blame them? After five years of uncertainty,
the Icesave issue was finally resolved—in
the best way any Icelander could have
hoped for. No more Icesave
press-conferences at the President's oŽice.
No more referendums. No more fearing
that the repercussions of Landsbankinn's
reckless actions would bankrupt the
country. The President's gamble, and the
nation's gamble, paid oŽ in a big way. But
does this mean Icelanders are back on
track, free to load up on Range Rovers and
re-engage in the reckless risk taking they
so love? Page 20
