Former taoiseach Bertie Ahern last week suffered a weekly reduction of €80.00 in his State pension. This means he is now on a weekly pension of €2,848.94.
How can Irish citizens believe politicians are interested in the common good when an individual is paid this sort of money out of State coffers?
And there are others on similar pensions.
This must and has to change.
