Cruel bank holiday social welfare cuts

Certain categories of social welfare recipients have a disproportionate sum of money cut from their weekly payments in weeks which have bank holidays.

Imagine the justified anger people who are so affected must feel.

Mr Ahern and Mr Cowen receive €2,743 per week from the State.

And then the palaver that is used to explain why such cuts are made in weeks which have bank holidays.

No cuts in those weeks to Bertie Ahern and Brian Cowen.
