This is been hailed as a budget that has concentrated on investing in public services.

In reality €850 million of the 2 billion increase on public spending goes to public sector pay (without any improvements/performance related pay)

The average cost of employing a public sector employee will have increased by 2,500 per year by this time next year compared to this. This ignores increased job security and extortionate defined benefit pensions funded by the private sector. The government is wilting at every public sector strike notice and the threats will continue indefinitely, no back bone.

A private sector employee on the average industrial wage sees an increases of €3 per week where as the scroungers on the dole get a €5 for doing sweet f.a

Means testing pensions and child benefit would create a fiscal space in excess of $3 billion (with little or no pain) but the IT infrastructure is so archaic that there is practically no cross departmental communication. That's what you get when you elect a bunch of teachers to run an economy.

DJ........When are all the Public Servants getting this €2,500........I know a few people who will be delighted with this news.
Report dj876 October 14, 2016 12:06 PM BST
The average is 2,500 per annum. 850 million divided by 336,000 = 2,500

This includes the landsdowne road agreement, no matter what way you look at it the average annual increase in the cost of a public servant is 2,500.

Strikers should be told to get back to work or f##k off, our national debt is 200 billion. That's 100,000 for every worker in the state, it's not a fiscally prudent time for pay increases.

It won't happen as that's 336,000 votes and preservation is the ultimate priority of our elected elite.

In the boom the public sector were on about 30% more than the private sector, which I thought odd, as the private sector generate the money.

Where did you hear that, Kincsem. Sure the majority of the lads in construction were earning more than a high court judge.

DJ876 contribution here is telling,its pure naked jealousy.
He couldn't bear the fact that Pa Lapsy was doing well in the challenge so came on complaining,his complaints were couched in such a way as to pronounce himself a feared punter.
The other thing he can't bear is the popularity of Workrider and his racing exploits.
Workrider racing in England and Ireland betting in cash,looking at the horses in the paddock drives him to distraction.
His robotic formulaic mind is so cluttered with rules it can't function.

Callit nails why the forum is in it's current state of paralysis but Borneo ignores the reference to the tribal pacts because he is one of the pivotal instigators and moderators of it. Borneo refuses to comment or discredit anything the majority of the Gombeens post on here,selections thrown up with nothing but racing cliches applied as logic,countless losing tips ignored and then when one does oblige,they're hailed as a messiah.
Anyone that refers to any topic on current affairs,economics,racing or sports betting utilising any modern day language/thought process is accused of plagiarism and verbiage. This ensures that the forum is maintained at the basement level with the back slapping on the lotto numbers while the exodus of decent forumites continues.
Barely worth a look these days even as a p1sstake as the level of "banter" has plummeted.

dj , your claim to fame on here nearly got you banned , Ruby Ruby Ruby , you came along and posted a few odds on shots who got turned over , then you sulked when somebody had a few words ..Now you come back time after time trying to sound as if you actually KNOW something . You offer little to the forum ,yet demand very high standards from the rest of us ..If you stop to think about it , would you say your EGO is getting in the way ..

I don't take my comments from hearsay, or about lads.

This is a link from a more recent position, described by the Irish Times in an article dated Thu, Aug 25, 2016, 11:44.

"Private-sector workers saw weekly earnings rise 1.5 per cent in the second quarter to €635.52 while their counterparts in the public sector experienced a 1.2 per cent decline, new figures show.
Average weekly earnings increased to €703.83 in the second quarter, up 0.5 per cent on the same three months a year earlier, and by 2.1 per cent compared with the €689.32 recorded in the corresponding quarter five years ago.
Public-sector earnings
Earnings in the public sector dropped from €917.24 to €905.97 compared with the second quarter of 2015, according to the Central Statistics Office (CSO)."

private .... €635.52
public .... €905.97
or public sector workers earn 42.55% more
or private sector earn 70.1% of what public sector earn.

No mention of pensions in the article.
