Tldr. Ireland has done well attracting foreign companies, but now needs to be attractive to their staff. Then veers off into something about us having centre right politics and lack investment in services which will make Ireland more attractive to those staff, but then completely misses the point that they are already paying 50% of their wages as tax and we’re not going to make ourselves more attractive by taxing them even more to pay for this.
