Gilmore pledges property tax cut

Sir, – Oh how preoccupied we get when the ballot box appears on the horizon.

The Labour Party leader, Eamon Gilmore declares his party's local elections manifesto will promise cuts in property tax (Home News, February 3rd) . The Labour Party is already in Government – and it introduced the property tax! Had Mr Gilmore forgotten? – Yours, etc,
