Did they do such dithering about awarding themselves a pay rise I wonder 🤔🤔🤔

It should be done away with anyway for people on the dole long term, a bonus for sitting on your hole ffs

Possibility of no Christmas bonus for unemployed but no problem with pay rises for td's.

TD's have given themselves 3 pay rises so far this year, and yet no decision has been made on the payment of the social welfare Christmas bonus. They voted straight away with immediate effect for their own pay rises. I am never voting again. There is no democracy in this country.

Holding the rope you have around peoples necks a little tighter yee are with this one!
