Indeed, but he has become more working class than the working class themselves. Maybe more a hero of the working class than the other way around. Either way he will never have to buy another drink in The Jobstown inn
He has a job with a basic salary of €87,258. Tough sh*t if he’s giving handouts to his crusty commie comrades. He should be assessed on the €87,258. The taxpayer is getting hit on the double here.
@artfoley - what’s the criteria for getting criminal legal aid? I presume if you’re earning €87,258 (plus expenses), in the ordinary course of events, you don’t qualify?
There should be no giving into to these anarchists. That’s what the independent office of the Director of Public Prosecutions is there for.
Taxpayers largely pay their dues and that includes water charges. Its the layabout, social welfare, sponger classes who’ve never worked a day in their life and contribute nothing to the state coffers who are not paying and doing most of the agitating.
If they’re as broke and destitute as they claim to be, they shouldn’t be paying any VAT. Life’s necessities are subject to 0% VAT. Luxury items, 13.5% and 23%.
Very true. Over the last couple of days the sight of the soldiers of destiny, the blueshirts and the labour cunts in full retreat mode, while they try to blame each other for the water fiasco is a beautiful sight to behold. Paul Murphy take a bow. Its a man of the match award he should be receiving.
Criminal legal aid, unlike civil legal aid is not means tested as such and also at a judges discretion. There’s plans for a formal means test but hasn’t come about. An applicant will submit a statement if means to the court and then the judge will decide.
Given the political policing and DPPing of this case by sending forward for trial on indictment, its clear that he has all the organs of state against him so legal aid is right
Handouts as in the dole like what you were on before you hightailed it to blighty to sell gloves and boots out of the boot of a car around the sites in London?
