Halligan calls for an end to tax shelters

THE Workers’ Party yesterday demanded an end to tax shelters for the very wealthy and also called for an end to privatisation of State service and utilities.

The party, which will run six candidates in the General Election, launched its manifesto in Dublin yesterday morning. It also said it would campaign against a two-tier health system and for free educational opportunity for all.

Speaking at the launch of the Party’s Election Manifesto, Waterford councillor John Halligan said: “Neither a FF led coalition, nor a FG led coalition is capable of making the radical and substantive changes in policy which will make for real change and improvement in the lives of working class people and their families”.
