The bank paid €19 million on €100 million profit and it paid €25 million here on €1.25 billion of profit. Those figures speak for themselves in terms of the injustice the Government is perpetrating on Irish citizens in depriving them of hundreds of millions of euro that could be spent on badly needed infrastructure. There is a great focus on the cost of the national children's hospital, and rightly so, but many children's hospitals could be built if the banks paid their fair share of tax in this country. If they can do it in Britain, why can they not do it here?
