Overthrow new rack-renters

There have been many extortionist measures introduced by the present and previous coalition governments but a tax on domestic water must rank as the most unjust, cowardly and disgraceful of all.

Over the coming weeks the parties who have conceived and imposed this unfair burden on already struggling households will be sending people to our doors to ask us to vote for their candidates in the May 23 elections.

I am sure that most of those who have chosen to carry the banner for Fianna Fáil, The Green Party, Fine Gael and Labour are fine, upstanding and honest individuals but yet, dear citizen they are fully committed to taxing the water that comes from your tap or even from your private well, regardless of how rich or poor you may be.
