In this episode we discuss the recently published book Tax Haven Ireland. It was co-authored by Kieran Allen, lecturer in Sociology at UCD and Brian O'Boyle economist at St. Angela's Sligo. Both are People Before Profit activists. We chat with Brian O'Boyle. The book gives insight into Ireland's nefarious tax system, how it fits into the rest of the global tax system and how it affects ordinary people. It's a fascinating book that stirs both intrigue and anger. There is a link to the book below. A must Read!
