Not enough info here. How does this lady cope with her other bills? Does she pay for various services like Netflix etc that aren't particularly necessary, go on pricey holidays?. Is she down to her last €s and can't pay the 'voluntary charge'? Or is she just a 'Won't pay'??

Netflix is non negotiable as is her highlights and her iPhone

PeterTheNinth

But your misuse of the national airwaves to promote your own book is perfectly legitimate and moral though Joe, yeah?

TheHomeService

Joe is seconds away from throwing his pencil on the desk, in an attempt at faux anger.

Joe will have the Lotto closed down by the end of the week.

I was in maplins one day and the guy says "Do you want a brochure?", I said no thanks I look up the stuff online. He says "Ah go on it's only 3 euro". He annoyed me so much he nearly had an Arduino shoved up his H0le.

It's voluntary, my arse!

If you believe that education in this country is free and fully paid for by the taxpayer - you are deluded.

Schools need the extra funds to provide the services you might want and expect. Vast majority of responsible parents pay voluntary contributions.

I'm not deluded - but here is my reasoning for refusing to pay an additional voluntary tax.

The capitation grants have been gradually reduced over the last number of years. The capitation grant has been reduced to keep the education budget under control. Teacher wages and pensions have been preserved (with some some screwing of new entrants by the unions). Wages and pensions make up ~75% of the education budget. In the same period my wages and pension have been reduced.
So basically - the voluntary contribution is so teacher wages and pensions can be maintained.
And the fact that principals are holding children to ransom over this is disgusting in my opinion.

Luckily my school doesn't make a big deal about it - I get involved in other forms of fundraising and volunteer my time when required.

So - it's a point of principal - not delusion at all !

Are they not just repeats of the Callback show on RTE during the day at the moment?

New ones in production, it seems. No doubt it will be used to justify Claddaghgreen's fees exceeding the €500,000 per annum mark.

Only heard a few bits of the groan line today. At the start of the debacle Duffy said the lottery was a €700m business. Every other time I heard him mention it other was a €1bn business.:).
My question is:. Is the groan line that good as to bump up the revenue take by €300n just like that,or is Topaz's strategy working.?

He has to sell 50 catalogues a week to get enough wages for a slice of bread and dripping.

2 or 3 years was in my local tesco the week after xmas and they had easter eggs out in one took a pic and put it up on twitter basically saying xmas was just over easter was months away and tesco were taking the michael. Got a reply shortly after from tesco telling me that some customers liked to buy their eggs early as it stopped them shelling out a big wedge of cash closer to easter buying all their eggs.
