FAIR TAX FOR ULSTER – Read the full article here!
The businesses in Ulster have one very major issue to manage over and above all the other economic and social issues that fellow companies have to address elsewhere across the UK – that is of course its southern neighbour, which sits across a very porous border. This has meant that very often any financial infections and woes suffered in the Republic can be easily transmitted north such that Ulster will feel the waves of economic policies buffeting them from not just one but two directions, Westminster and Dublin.
You only have to look at what happened with the banking crisis as well as the property market, both of which caused huge ructions in the Province where they, unlike the rest of the UK, have seen a property price crash which on some measures was as much as 60% in some areas. Now thankfully the worst of that particular fall is passed and there are some encouraging signs of slow improvement.
