At one stage TASC was considered to be a radical think tank alternative, but I must say Mr. McDonnell's contribution was hugely disappointing. In reality it bought in completely to the bailouts and the austerity agenda when what we need are radical alternatives. With regard to the property tax, I believe Mr. McDonnell stated every house valued between €150,000 and €300,000 should be taxed per annum at €675. Is this correct?
