Yet pay 1.2 billion euro a year to privately owned IPAS centres.
No general election upcoming so no reason to announce any meaningful supports.
We are the suckers.
Tie their salary to the median earning at all times and they will change their mind quick.
Gowl be gowlin’…

Yeah we are just cash/income tax cows to them. Pay in but don’t expect support out.
Fucking moron
Coming home after working abroad because I couldn’t afford to rent at home anymore. And now looks like I will be living with the parents, possibly into my 30s. No prospect of starting a family any time soon. And bastards like Harris and Martin sit up there sneering down on us.
Says the man who isn’t actively affected by the cost of living.
What was the surplus again?
Reminder that Simon Harris gets a driver and non-ministers get tax-free travel allowances worth 10s of 000s
Fock off Harris. You work for us remember.
“Stand ready to consider” sums up these clowns, absolute ghouls
Could he not have come up with any other words to say what he was trying to say?
Regardless of your politics, you’d have to agree that Harris is a hopeless politician and it is symbolic of the fall of FG that he is at the top of the party. Martin’s time as FF leader has passed a while ago, but despite that, he has more political instinct in his thin~~ning~~ hair than Harris has in his whole body.
In France currently, and just wish I could move home, not a chance with the way Ireland is being bled by the sleeveens running the country.
There’s a lot of extremely comfortable people in this country that are happy to not rock the boat they know they don’t have long left to experience the shitshow this crowd will leave us in
„Anyway let’s spend our time looking at tax free investments for the wealthy“
In other words, not yet, there’s much worse coming and then we’ll all really need it.
Is it any wonder the extreme right is on the rise? Absolutely spineless neoliberal politicians are the biggest cause.
You see, I’ll tell you why.
The country is booming. He can see all the figures.
Tax is booming. Vat is booming.
That is all that matters.
Everything is going great. Even though there’s obviously people struggling.
Struggling big time.
But some people are not struggling, and that’s all that matters to the government…..
Plenty of money out there. For half the country. It’s grand.
Big cars. Big houses. Old money. Parents loaded.
Government couldn’t give a bollox.
When they took 2 cent off a litre of kerosene a few weeks back, sums it up really.
When Facebook, Google and Amazon, big pharma start pulling out of Ireland, then and only then you will see action….
Just remember, one person’s cost of living crisis, is another Tánaiste’s way of achieving and maintaining an erection
Says the man who has no shortage of money.
Sweet, looks like another pointless week of commuting to an office to do the same job I could have done from home, using up whatever reserves of fuel remain.
You aint seen nothing yet
If it’s a foolish decision I’m confident he will make it.
Premature… maybe… foolish? Don’t think so.
It’s a scandal that this guy is minister for finance.
Calling the electorate fools and then wondering why your approval rating and polling numbers are sinking.
Is there anything to be said for cross-subsidising more data centres running on petroleum and natural gas and giving landlords some kind of tax break?
/S
Hes not wrong. All that money they gave out during covid just ended up in the pockets of rich asset holders. Massive transfer of public wealth
It is just kicking the can down the road
More efficient use of the budget long term improves the quality of life but I don’t trust this government to do that
„I’m doing fine, I’m not enough of a fool to help other people.“
„Fuck yiz, me and mine are getting ours.“
Bit like voting FFG again
That prick can get fucked.
It’s funny how all the people saying this are not going to be affected by it because their salary is so high they’re insulated from the financial hardship most ordinary people will experience as a result.
