Peadar Tobin is the victim of a partitionist policy. The six county party would have no problem with his views on abortion while the 26 county party expelled him from the party and ransacked his office, dragging him out by the collar

Charlie said in 2018 as justice minister all breaches of cabinet confidentiality are illegal. That position has not changed presumably

I donât understand why Labour had to bring SF into it all? They are in agreement with them on this and a separate opposition party in their own right. Are they saying SF arenât genuine in wanting Varadkar to go or that in November they werenât even?

Letâs skip to the point where you accept that the headline tax rate will extremely rarely be the effective tax rate across most taxes. That doesnât mean anything illegal or untoward has happened.
Iâm not sure what your main point here is - are you suggesting there are bespoke tax credits available to MNCs in Ireland that are not available to other companies or MNCs?
They are fighting for the left leaning middle class votes SFIRA borrowed from them.
dont remember labour ever getting 37 seats
They got exactly that in 2011 didnât they?

By the next general election youâd expect Labour to be probably the 7th biggest party on the island. Theyâre done, a busted flush. Social Democrats, PBP and SF have devoured their carcass.
- 37 seats.
They are currently the only party in the Dail not taking their policies from whatâs popular on Twitter.
My point is that MNCs donât pay enough corporation tax in this country. At an incredibly low rate of 12.5% there should be very little if any tax credits allowed. There especially should be no grants awarded to the multi billion dollar companies. Using terms like âheadlineâ and âeffective taxâ is just spoof to try and muddy the waters and used to hide the swindle thatâs going on. When you have revenue bringing in tax rules that change evasion in to avoidance then we can hardly complain when weâre labelled a tax haven. Fleecing SMEs while bending over backwards for the MNCs is typical FFG cap doffing. 12.5% is a generous rate, make them pay it.

We are too reliant on mncs anyway. Theyâll eventually leave and weâll be screwed. Ignoring the domestic economy is akin to the thinking that high stamp duty returns would go on forever.
Our effective tax rate of 12% is very close to the headline rate so there is very little granted in ways of relief.
