Trish Face High Cost of Rebellion In Damage Taxes
Dublin July 27. The sums awarded by courts to victims of malicious injuries in Ireland now total about 56 million dollars. Local Sinn Fein councils refuse to levy or collect these payments from taxed citizens. Unionist taxpayers oppose footing the bill, prompting calls to relieve citizens from these charges. Some judges support treating the damage as war like Easter week. The imperial government paid 15 million in Easter week damages and is urged to fund current losses, but authorities reportedly resist paying for damages by opponents. Meanwhile victims wait for compensation.
