Penal Laws return to Ireland:-

In 1704 under the heading ‘property’, no Irish Catholic could own a horse worth more than £5. In 2011 under the heading Car Tax, no Irish citizen can drive on Irish roads unless they buy a new car or pay PENAL car tax on pre 2008 cars. 1916 centenary is coming up -- I feel a "Celtic Spring" coming on! Time for "Horse Lanes"?
