‘I actually understand why people go home and hang themselves’
Speaking on the Today with Pat Kenny Show, schoolteacher Carol O’Byrne, described how she would lose an additional e800 to e900 a month as a result of yesterday’s budget measures.
“I couldn’t sleep last night. I am now suffering from anxiety since February over this because I never thought at 51 years of age that I am going to be financially insecure for the rest of my working life,” she said.
