Gerry Hutch, also known as The Monk, is eyeing up the Dáil seat left vacant by the resignation of Paschal Donohoe.Already it is believed that the convicted criminal, encouraged by his near success in last year's general election, is using what will be a long build-up to next year's byelection to get his campaign in order and to register hundreds, even thousands, of new voters in Dublin's north inner city.So will his €800,000 tax bill from the Criminal Assets Bureau put a stop to his political ambitions and could the man named as the head of the Hutch organised crime group become a TD?I talk to Irish Times crime and security editor Conor Lally who has long covered Hutch's career in crime.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Yesterday's budget spelled out the Government's tax and spending plans for next year. But what happens after that?Barra Roantee of Trinity College Dublin's Department of Economics says it is “shocking” that there is no plan beyond 2026.“Last year we had five-year-ahead forecasting. The year before was four-year. We're meant to be submitting a medium term plan to the European Commission.This is part of our obligations, and we were told that was going to happen over the summer. Then, it'll happen near the budget. It still hasn't happened, and we still have no detail. We don't know what spending is meant to be in 2027, 2028”. He also highlights the lack of detailed costings to underpin our budgetary decisions.“In the UK they'll have hundreds of pages of costing documents for each policy decision and we have nothing. We have, like, a page”. Roantree is also highly critical of the way Paschal Donohoe and Jack Chambers have conveyed their decisions, including “astronomical spending increases” that end up being far higher, he says, than is claimed on Budget Day. “These costings are a cynical wheeze, innumerate, and they're being used to, I think at this stage, cook the books”. On today's podcast Rowntree talks to Hugh Linehan and Pat Leahy about Budget 2026. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Minister Donohoe did caution that the scenario facing Ireland could "regrettably" have a "significant effect" on growth and job creation, although he added talks are underway at a European level to try and avoid this. Meanwhile, wider economic uncertainty worldwide has not led to a slowdown in consumer spending. New 'Bank of Ireland' data for May, shows Irish consumer spending rose 6.5 percent year-on-year.
