Things that make you go What the F**k?

Old people. It's not very PC of me but I've had enough of old people. People over 70 have nothing to offer and are just lucky.

8 dead at Travis Scott concert! 

Pure savagery, attendees behaving like untamed animals. Concert should never have went ahead when there was a run at the entrance gates in the first place. Shocking stuff.

Nearly half of the deaths of children and young people who died while in the care of the State in the last decade were due to suicide or drug overdoses, new figures show.

Forty-two young people died in the State care system between 2010 and 2019, with 18 dying by suicide or from a drug overdose.

We don't know. It is a more subtle lesson. It is to look for risks and realise the potential speed of change. And here one factors stands out now – the growing reliance on corporation tax, which is again a key factor in the outperformance of the exchequer this year. We are increasingly reliant on decisions taken in a couple of dozen US boardrooms and the fortunes of these companies.

The surge in corporation tax has been staggering. This year it could conceivably bring in something over €14 billion – not far off one euro in every four of tax collected, way above international or historical norms.

Corporation tax receipts have roughly doubled since 2015 and more than half of the cash comes from the 10 biggest multinational taxpayers. When you count in income taxes as well as corporation tax, foreign multinationals are responsible for about one in every three euro of tax collected.
