What about if we had a series of referendums on the same day lump them altogether
abolishing the Seanaid
Abolishing the blasphemy sections
Allowing Judges pay to be cut
Allowing ministerial pension to be only paid at normal retirement age or later if minister is still serving.
Reducing the number of TDs
Anymore you can think of
If we did them altogether we could save money besides cuts have to start at the top even as only an example that those at the top are not exempt.
Interesting that their is constitutional protection for the income of the president, the Judges, the ministers and NO protection at all for the weakest the old the sick and the unemployed
Its the Crips and the Bloods all over again
