USC – 15 YEARS LATER, WHY ARE WE STILL PAYING IT? The Universal Social Charge was introduced by the Fianna Fáil–Green Government in Budget 2011, at the height of the financial crisis. It came into effect on 1 January 2011 and was presented at the time as an emergency/temporary measure. We are long past that recession and the bailout era. Then in 2016, Simon Harris described USC as a “hated temporary USC” and said it had been introduced as an “emergency and temporary measure.” Fine Gael went into that election promising to abolish it. Watch the video below. That was 2016. This is 2026. Ten years later, USC is still on our payslips. That speaks for itself.

Here are some of my questions and responses from the recent Dublin City Council meeting. First of all, I have nothing against Bohemian Football Club. Bohs are a great club and do fantastic work in the community. But I completely object to what is happening here. I found evidence online showing that funding had already been approved for four social housing apartments at this property, yet the property is now being made available to Bohemians for three years at €1,000 a year. In my opinion, that is a disgrace. We are in the middle of a housing crisis, rents are through the roof and people are waiting years for homes. There has to be one standard for everyone. Bohs are also sponsored by DHL. DHL’s largest shareholder is the German state-owned KfW bank, and the German state holds around 18% of the company overall. Germany was also the second-largest supplier of major arms to Israel in 2021–25. I also want to make it clear that I agree Israel should not have been in the tournament. But I would never take that out on the Irish players who represented their country with dignity and respect. My issue is the double standard. Some people were very quick to attack Irish footballers over Israel, while at the same time having no issue with this sponsorship arrangement. I also raised immigration and housing. Councillor Conor Reddy and Councillor Daithí Doolan disagree with me that immigration is adding pressure to an already overstretched housing system. My position is simple. More people needing emergency accommodation and more people becoming eligible for social housing means more demand. That is not blaming every migrant. It is asking for an honest conversation about numbers, housing supply and capacity. We cannot be taking properties where funding had already been approved for housing and putting them to another use for €1,000 a year while people are desperately waiting for somewhere to live. I’m sorry if some Bohs supporters disagree with me, but we are in a housing crisis. Housing has to come first, and the same standards have to apply to everyone. Adaptive Reuse – Creation of new homes by acquiring and adapting vacant commercial property 371–373 North Circular Road, Dublin 7 No. of apartments: 4 Status: Funding approved. Acquisition in progress. Design team to be appointed.
