In checking this out, I took time to view Sinn Féin TV, which is embedded in the party's website. It contains some fantastic hits. On 7 February 2011, I watched Deputy Doherty say on the channel that the universal social charge brings in €420 million per year. That is exactly what Deputy Adams said a few moments ago on the floor of the House. That is not true. The reality is that this charge will bring in €4 billion per year, which is ten times as much as that claimed by Sinn Féin.
