McVerry accused the Fine Gael proposal of being the 'discredited theory' of trickle-down economics.
FATHER PETER MCVERRY has said that Fine Gael’s recent push for tax cuts for middle earners prioritises the least vulnerable in society.
Speaking on RTÉ’s Upfront with Katie Hannon last night, McVerry was asked if he agreed with what Varadkar called his “priority of making sure people can buy their own home.”“Clearly that’s his priority. But I think he’s saying ‘it’s not a great priority for me those people who are renting and paying extraordinary rents, those 9,000 households who are facing eviction from their home.”
‘The people who are prioritised by the Taoiseach, very few of those are worried about buying food for the week’ - @PMVTrust “One third of the cost of a house is based on the cost of the land it is built on, that is due to land speculation. The Kenny Report cut out land speculation. A €450,000 house could come down to €300,000 if it was implemented.When asked about the tax measures suggested by Fine Gael, McVerry said:
Kieran O’Donnell, Fine Gael Minister for State at the Department of Housing, claimed that the tax measure would benefit 1.9 million people.
