    No and if they live more than 12 miles from Kildare St they are entitled to €140 a night expenses without having to hand in a receipt every time they turn up for work.

    So you can see how it easy it is for them to lose touch with the ordinary punter and bring in a tax that's "only €2 a week". :rolleyes:

    Ask your local politician or try posting in the politics forums.
