It’s all happening this week, what with VAT increases up north combined with the falling rate of the euro expected to put an end to the pull of cross-border shopping; the proposed introduction of yet another property tax — this time for everyone with a roof over their heads — that’s expected to work out at approximately €1,000 per person (but which should generate oodles of new income for those involved in the business of ‘independent assessment’ of house values); the proposal to abolish town councils gaining greater clarity as it transpires that the dual mandate is set for a return, but only to a reduced number of councillors; and the news of royalty and leaders of powerful countries queuing up to come over to Ireland for a visit, with both Queen Elizabeth and President Barack Obama throwing their names into the pot. So much to take in.
