press release
Tuesday October 14, 2008 22:02 by Des Dalton - Republican Sinn Fein saoirse at iol dot ie 223 Parnell St Dublin 1 01 8729747
Statement from the Vice President of Republican Sinn Fein Des Dalton reacting to the 26-County Budget. The budget announced by Brian Lenihan targets those who profited least from the so-called ‘Celtic Tiger’ of the past ten years whilst those who profited most go largely unscathed. The Dublin administration’s neo-liberal economic agenda coupled with a cosy relationship with developers and the banks resulted in a free for all of easy credit, massive debt and huge profits for a small minority. Now that the house of cards has collapsed tax payers money is being used to bail out the banks without any regulation and it is working people who are being forced to foot the bill. |
