THE BISHOPSTOWN BAR in Cork, like many other businesses, was watching the Budget carefully yesterday.
And following the news that child benefit would increase by €5, they tweeted this:
(It was spotted by Cork’s 96FM, who posted a screencap on their Facebook.)
The bar later deleted the tweet, and posted an apology.

One commenter on the 96FM Facebook page called it a “disgrace”, while another branded the tweet “insulting”.
However, some have suggested that the whole thing was a publicity stunt.
