Water charge dithering is resulting in low ‘tax morale’

Last week I received a bill from Irish Water. By temperament, I usually pay these things without too much analysis.

I reserve my protests for the ballot box.

But the messing and uncertainty over the future of the utility in the last several months has given me pause for thought. This time out my payment might not be quite as automatic as it usually is. I suspect I’m not alone in that.
