Strange might be a mild way of putting it. Italy Despite his massive wealth The Berl gets convicted of forgetting to pay his dues, ( shades of Capone) gets a conviction carrying 4 years reduced to 1 of which he may not serve, age and all that poppythingy England I remember the great Lester forgot the same but he did his time. Ireland Depending where you are sitting, you get a well paid job and a leaders allowance to help repay what you owe? plus all the trimmings Now if you are a broke actor and take not millions for your own gratification but in order to feed your children borrow without payment a loaf and a box of corn flakes you get a conviction and a bucket load of community hours work without pay. It gives me the feeling that the law is multi tiered depending who and where you sit at the great democratic table. What think-est Thou. Andy

Stealth Taxation. Now that the budget has come and gone, it's time for the old Stealth taxes to appear. The latest a €3 taxation on all new tyres, for cars, buses tractors etc. They are at it already. The price of a stamp from January 2013 has risen from 55c to 70c so far. Folks! this is just the beginning. Watch your wallet as the Government Pickpockets are out there. Regards Kellquinn

True Kel,
What was givith with the left hand has being taken back with the right with extras.
Am sure the roundy off system will also leave us that bit poorer.
