Kilkenomics Festival 2014
The Irish economy has been no laughing matter but this year it is predicted to be the fastest growing in Europe. But does it feel as good on the ground as it looks on paper?
Once again we're at the Kilkenomics Festival in Ireland. It's a blend of economic conference and comedy fringe where standups and economists put the Irish economy under the spotlight. It's been no laughing matter but this year it is predicted to be the fastest growing in Europe. But does it feel as good on the ground as does on paper? We'll visit one of the ghost housing estates where houses built in the boom but left empty after the bust are being put back to use. Plus we'll be looking at the issue of tax and the 'Irish double'. Will the big tech companies stay here now that this tax loophole has been closed?
