    Is the love affair between the Fianna Fail, and the unions over for ever. Can you imagine Bertie the Socialist, abolishing tax relief on union subscriptions.
    Actually, this is by far and away the best part of the four year plan announced today. :cool:

    Great thing :)

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means

    This is great news, I was unaware of this until now.

    The breakup up the insider class begins.

    We all have to make sacrifices and I'm quite happy to see my tax relief in respect of my subs ended - anything that helps.

    Fair play! We need a lot more of that attitude.

    We didn't cause the resession but we do have an obligation to the next generation to help fix it.

    Now is about priorities. Clearly Union subs are well down the list compared to Health Care and Social Welfare.
