Sir, - Why are married women frequently treated unjustly in this country?
Until comparatively recently, they were forced out of the work place on marriage. Now they are being forced back by the antifamily bias in the FF/PD Budget. A fair government would give them a right of choice without incurring penalties.
Please, FF, no more election manifesto litter through my letter-box! The last one paid lip service to tax breaks for a stay-at-home spouse and to consultation of the electorate on Partnership for Peace. What has happened to truth and honesty?
If I sound angry at this latest piece of blatant discrimination, I plead guilty. I suspect that those scorned in this Budget will speak loud and clear at the next election. - Yours, etc.,
Eilish Sheridan, Glen Lawn Drive, Cabinteely, Dublin 18.
