flag Sinn Féin proposes a €13.4B 2026 budget with increased public investment and tax reforms, countering the government’s €9.4B plan.

flag Sinn Féin has defended its €13.4 billion alternative 2026 budget, significantly larger than the government’s €9.4 billion plan, arguing it boosts public investment—especially in housing—and includes €2.5 billion in cost-of-living measures like energy and renter tax credits. flag The party projects a €665 million increase in tax revenue by 2026 through higher taxes on banks, landlords, and high earners, including a 3% solidarity tax on incomes over €100,000, while cutting income tax for workers and abolishing the Universal Social Charge on the first €40,000 of income. flag Sinn Féin maintains its plan is fiscally responsible and fair, despite warnings from economic experts about inflationary risks from the government’s current fiscal approach.
