    Fine Gael's Eoin Murphy Couldn't be more Sanctimonious

    On Matt Cooper's show this evening, Fine Gael's Eoin Murphy described the forthcoming septic tanks inspection fee and household charge as minimal. when Cooper challenged the Dublin-based deputy, describing the legislation as heaping more misery on the irish people, Murphy was extremely dismissive and arrogant of Cooper's comments. He said the total 150 euro spread out over the year was only two euro a week. Does he not realise that two euro a week is a lot to some people. In the early 90s, I earned 170 euro per week as a married man and let me tell you, Murphy, not alone did every pound count but every penny.

    His profile says it all
    Eoghan is a Fine Gael TD in Dublin South East.
    In 2009, Eoghan was elected to Dublin City Council to represent the Pembroke-Rathmines ward.
    Before entering politics, Eoghan worked in international arms control, mostly in the area of nuclear weapon disarmament. He has worked for various organisations including the United Nations, in London, Geneva and Vienna. Upon his election to Dublin City Council, he left his job as a speechwriter at the nuclear test-ban treaty commission in Vienna to dedicate himself full-time to politics in Ireland.
    Eoghan studied English and Philosophy (BA) in UCD, and International relations (MA) in King’s College London, UCL.
    He lives in Gallery Quay, Dublin 2 and enjoys watching rugby, reading and adventure racing.

    I know I am not a fan of FG, but I couldn't believe his arrogance

    What has how much you got paid 20 years ago got to do with it? Why didn't you just say that in the 70's you weren't making anything and that 2 pounds per week would have been a lot to you back then?
