Description

Will the electorate be grateful for budget 2025?

Where was the long-term strategy and/or vision?

So little for Irish businesses, particularly indigenous SMEs

Tax base narrowed again

Infrastructure mentioned loads of times with few details, let alone plans

Not nearly enough focus on return on invetsment

Will it work? In political terms at least.
