Social Democrats promise 'super wealth' tax which would bring in up to 200m per year

"We want it to be clear to the public that this is not a tax on homes and even at those higher rates, it's not a tax on homes. This is a tax on super wealth."

"This is to target additional wealth, this is a super wealth tax," said Mr O'Callaghan, emphasizing that agriculture and family homes are exempt.

The party's deputy leader Cian O'Callaghan stated, "this is not designed with any other party in mind or Government formation."

The party promises to build 75,000 affordable homes over five years, with specific numbers for purchase and rental.
