Peadar Tóibín: If the Government is seeking a slogan for the next election then it should choose "in the next few weeks" because when we ask about the windfall tax we are told "in the next few weeks".

That is an incredible figure and the national one is far higher, but the Government does not seem to want to record these figures.
