I'm a little surprised and quite disappointed by the lack of debate on p.ie on the opposition's budget proposals. We seem to be more concerned by a failed stunt by a SF TD than the economic future of the country, when the current government are removed.
Here is the FG proposal.

While I don't agree with everything in it, for me this a well balanced, well thought out documeent, addressing the key issues and actually covering the four years (at a minimum) that it will take us to recover from the current mess.
As for Labour.

This is a shambolic, effort, barely covering a year, full of vague statements and failing to address key issues like the featherbedding in the public service.
More disturbing are the differences between he two parties that are almost certain to form the next government. It's very difficult to see them squaring the circle and coming out with any form of cohesive plan.
