The ireland rugby team is currently ranked 1st in a World Cup. Rather than enjoy that, a bunch of muppets on here would rather whinge and moan about flags and songs.

Some astounding stats from the Irish tax system: the top 20% of earners pay 79% of all income tax and USC. The top 1% pay 23%. The bottom 80% of earners pay 21%. 37% of income earners are exempt from paying any income tax at all.

Outstanding article by @McConnellDaniel ‘That may be his view, but it is not his job to be openly undermining the stated policy of the elected government’ is a key sentence. When will the media ask @CMOIreland why he keeps doing it?

Irish politician Richard Boyd Barrett on the streets of Dublin today: Israel is a "filthy colonial regime"... we must "resist it, bring it down." The only answer, he says, is #intifada . Rhetoric like this could be plucked straight out of #Ramallah or #Jenin . Baffling that this is
