This is about real people whose incomes are minuscule and the Minister is further marginalising them and cutting them off through imposition of these taxes. The Green Party Ministers do not realise it because they are on another planet. They do not inhabit the real world. There are people in the real world outside these walls who have been put to the pin of their collar by Ministers who are off saving the planet.
