1998: Ireland cut Capital Gains Tax from 40% to 20%. Revenue exploded €245m → €3.2bn. From 2009–12, CGT was raised to 33%, reintroducing the lock-in effect. The evidence is clear, the path for @SimonHarrisTD is obvious: Cut CGT to 20%. Abolish deemed disposal on ETFs.

It was a great pleasure to interview @DPCIreland Des Hogan and Dale Sunderland in Brussels at the @the_iapp #DPC24. It was an honest, open and insightful session with the commissioners. Lots to discuss - DPC strategic focus, resourcing & recent regulatory enforcement.
Commissioners for Data Protection, Des Hogan and Dale Sunderland, were delighted to participate this week at IAPP Europe Data Protection Congress 2024. #DPC24 @the_iapp

An icon for me & my mum. I’m so lucky to have had the chance to express my gratitude to Nell when I bumped into her in Ranelagh a few years ago. She wasn’t having any of it & responded with her trademark sarcasm and wit- “you’re just surprised I’m still here”. Goodnight Sister.

Just deleting a period-tracking app is “bad advice because, simply, this is not the data that is being used in these prosecutions right now,” EFF’s @evacide told @USAToday. Worry more about Facebook messenger chats, Google searches, & location data. usatoday.com/story/news/nati…

I am absolutely fan-girling over Anna Funder. Stunning synopsis of her books Staziland & Wifedom and surveillance in a digital era. She speaks so eloquently & with a remarkably droll sense of humour. I would love to see her on a panel with @JCE_IC - it would be a sold out event!
The closing general session at #DPI24 begins in one hour! The Viscount Camrose (@SciTechgovuk) will kick us off followed by author Anna Funder and @LordChrisHolmes. Follow along with the agenda: bit.ly/3wsfnu1
