If you were foolish and meek enough to toe the official party line and paid water charges, your money has likely been already transferred to a bondholder’s account.
In other words, you will not see a penny back.
An ‘expert’ commission has finally elucidated that ‘normal use’ of water should be paid for via general taxation, rather than an extra charge.
After this outcome became known, Minister for Housing Simon Coveney was asked if people who did pay will be refunded.
‘No, I don’t think so,’ Mr. Coveney replied, and the Government acolytes cheered along.
He added that those who did not pay the bills still owe the money, and the populace screamed obscenities along.
