Ahead of today's VFI AGM in Limerick, we're calling for a 40% excise rebate to help rural pubs stay in business vfipubs.ie/save-our-rural…

Almost 1/3 of the cost of your pint goes straight to excise duty. This is a staggering tax burden. Every year, 150 pubs shut their doors for good. A tax rebate on excise duty is needed to safeguard rural pubs. VFI

If you don’t want to see car and liability insurance premiums skyrocket then like and share this message. The Govt. is about to increase personal injury awards that are already the highest in the EU by 17% Higher awards = higher premiums which people just can’t afford #NoTo17%
