Rónán Mullen: I have a friend in Cavan, Paul Connolly, who is a brave and tireless campaigner on the point that Ireland, through its exploitation of its tax arrangements, has impoverished many countries in the developing world and that these countries' budgets for hospitals and education are weakened because Ireland became a tax heaven for multinationals.
