Looks like we’ll have more funds for the Ukrainians.
The PwC one in the convention centre was a thing of beauty. Only short of breaking out the Buck’s Fizz to go with the full Irish. Poor Cian O’Sullivan shipped down to Laois chamber of commerce to explain the numbers hoping his GAA profile might garner a bit of business
This is madness.
Our tax base is already incredibly narrow. Progressive taxation on steroids.
This was what it was last year.
I believe a Big 4 firm has booked out the Orange Goat in Killester for one of their hotshots to beeak the eggs on the budget for normal folk.
this is my analysis
- Income Tax Adjustments: The income tax bands and rates have been adjusted to provide relief to middle-income earners. The entry point for the higher tax band has been increased, allowing more income to be taxed at the lower rate
- Universal Social Charge (USC): The USC rates have been revised to reduce the burden on lower and middle-income earners. The threshold for the higher USC rate has been increased
- Tax Credits: There have been increases in personal tax credits, employee tax credits, and home carer tax credits. This will result in higher take-home pay for PAYE workers
- Remote Working Allowance: The remote working daily allowance has been increased to support employees who work from home. This allowance can be claimed tax-free up to a certain amount per day
- Pension Contributions: Changes have been made to the pension contribution limits and tax reliefs to encourage more people to save for retirement. The maximum allowable pension contribution has been increased
Astute as always.
Formatting looks somewhat familiar though.

Consistent formatting is essential for several reasons, and here are seven key points to consider:
- Professional Appearance: Consistent formatting gives documents a polished and professional look, which can enhance the credibility and reputation of the organization
.
2. Improved Readability: When documents follow a consistent format, they are easier to read and understand. This helps the reader to quickly grasp the key points and information
.
3. Enhanced Communication: Consistent formatting ensures that the message is conveyed clearly and effectively. It reduces the chances of misinterpretation and helps in delivering the intended message accurately
.
4. Efficiency in Editing and Reviewing: When documents are consistently formatted, it becomes easier to edit and review them. This saves time and effort for both the writer and the reviewer
.
5. Brand Identity: Consistent formatting helps in maintaining the brand identity of the organization. It ensures that all documents reflect the same style and tone, which is crucial for brand recognition
.
6. Compliance and Standardization: Many industries have specific formatting standards and guidelines. Consistent formatting ensures compliance with these standards, which can be important for legal and regulatory purposes
.
7. Ease of Collaboration: When multiple people are working on a document, consistent formatting makes it easier to collaborate. It ensures that everyone is on the same page and reduces the chances of formatting conflicts
wtaf - that isnt consistent at all
The only positive is that it might make more people think it’s worthwhile to work.
I was about to reply to say a lot of consultancies, industry bodies & lobby groups have now gone down the “budget review podcast” route. I’m sure there are still some breakfast options too. Please advise @Appendage & @briantinnion.
