    I pay a hundred quid a week in taxes and earn less than the average nurse.

    Next to no taxes so!

    No offence, but that's a very small amount of tax. Both myself and my wife each pay multiples of that, and we're on pensions.

    Yes you were a public servant. Of course you and your wife’s pension is way more than my private sector wage.
    My taxes and my children’s taxes will pay your wages. I’m not sure if I should take offense.

    Fecal merry go round indeed

    You pay sweet FA in tax and you're here saying you're paying for peoples wages?

    Don't make me laugh.

    60k isn't a decent wage by any stretch, and if you're a nurse or ambulance driver, you'll never earn a decent wage.

    Holy spinning effluent. I’m sorry if I don’t earn enough to match the taxes you pay after robbing the tax system. 60 k is a bad year aparantly. Straight from the mammies milk to the public teet.

    Im not a public servant :confused::confused:
    How does paying lots of tax rob the system?

    Absolute pony. Either public service or union rep or a spoofer about paying multiples of tax to me. You are some high roller that spends all day argueing public service rights on boards?

    The whirlpool of spin.

    Fantastic news. People should be paid high wages.

    People who get low wages should pay taxes so people can get huge wages
    Multy billion euro companies should pay their taxes then maybe we could all have a few quid more.

    Yeah said mostly by the pay for nothing brigade or the grab everything brigade

    Nah, just some lad who has a bit of free time to argue with gammons who get annoyed when people they perceive as lower class earn more than they do:D

    Also, seeing as you're looking to go back to college, won't you be sucking from the public teet for a few years instead of working productively?

    People in glass houses...

    You absolutely do not pay multiples of tax to me. I’d say you are on the dole or on the public service teet. If I go back to school I have to pay for it myself, attending school in the evening and working during the day.

    Believe whatever you want to believe. Matters little to me.

    I just like to see people situation improve. You seem happy to tear people down.

    Full support for nurses, ambulance drivers and GPs here. I don't mind paying a bit extra to keep their services in the country and stop the brain drain

    It's a disgrace Joe, a holey disgrace and and all the fault of the ambulance drivers. Sure anyone could drive an ambulance Joe, arnt they only an oul transit, you don't even need a d licence. They should make some of them dole sponges to do it for their dole money Joe that I pay for wit me taxes Joe. A hundred pounds a week I give to them layabout ambulance men Joe. And I know about these things Joe because my sisters next-door neighbours hairdressers gynocoligists fishing buddy once talked to an ambulance driver and he owned a time share in an apartment in sunny Beach in Bulgaria Joe Bulgaria. I'm outraged Joe I am.

    They must get to see sone horrific stuff. A local one lost his mind and did away. One on the radio has depression, tough job

    Are they drivers only or are they paramedics ?

    I’ve great respect for medical ppl and a swirling toilet bowl isn’t a decent thing to say imho

    Ambulance drivers have put their name on the list to catch the gravy train on the fecal merry go round.

    It’s like a swirling toilet. Who will be next?

    I take it you've never needed to personally avail of the services provided by ambulance "drivers" then OP? I pray you never need to because if you want to treat them like supermarket shelf stackers then that's who's going to be applying for any further vacancies. Best of luck with that if you ever have a stroke/heart attack/car crash etc.

    If this country can afford to shell out 188 euros per week or whatever it is for people to sit on their hole then it can Goddamn well afford to pay a better wage to folks who deserve more. Nurses, firemen, paramedics, teachers, etc should all be cherry picked from the top of society and respected as such, not like no skill baggage handlers. I've no bones about picking up the tab for that with my taxes, I don't know why anyone else would either.

    An infinite wage increase. Binman can’t afford rent, hotel and shop workers are paying usc, factory jobs are minimum wage but keep flushing the toilet, keep pumping the handle because you might need a public sector worker.

    So how come you never got one of the gold plated public sector jobs if you think that they are all that good?

    When I was a kid my parents couldn’t afford to keep me while I went and studied and I didn’t get enough cao points to study anything super fancy.

    I didn’t know anybody in anything that could get me one. To be honest I didn’t even know what the public sector was at the time.
    I didn’t get a lot of career advice as a kid. Picked a dodgy plc course in something not really hiring over a new college course that would have paid me well.
    The list is endless. I’m not bitter, I had other lucky breaks in other things. I honestly think the standard of living for a public sector worker is better than everybody else in this country and the sense of grabbery from the trough is sickening. Plenty of places that extra money could be spent on but like children around a plate of biscuits the public sector are all trying to grab it while it’s going.

    A swirling toilet.

    However, Andrew Long of Carraig Dubh, Tobertaosceain, Ennis now faces a jail term up to five years after his plea of guilty to the more serious assault causing harm against Mary Nihill contrary to Section 3 of the Offences Against the Person Act.

    In a corridor at the centre, Nihill said she was sitting down and that from behind Long placed his left arm around her neck and applied force with his other arm.


    She said:
    I was choking and slipping on the chair and telling him to stop. I wanted to go out, but I couldn’t escape.
    She said:
    At no time did I consent to him putting his hands around my

    neck.




    Elise McMahon from Broadford also attended the course the same night and was seven months pregnant at the time.
    McMahon also stated that Long called her out to the corridor that night after the class was over.
    McMahon said that Long put his arm wrapped around her neck from behind.


    She said:
    My airwaves were cut off. I was conscious, but literally I couldn’t talk. I had no voice. It was the weirdest feeling. It scared me. The only way to stop was to push my body forward.
