The Irish Gov gave a higher % increase (~5%) to Greyhound Racing than to Mental Health services (~3.36%) . Next time a politician tweets (for the PR) about seeking help ask them why they think Greyhound racing deserves a higher increase.

They had two Wolfhounds , their groomer had serious concerns about their welfare and they needed veterinary care which they weren’t given. One was put down and one was dumped on a rescue. These company should not be allowed to have any dogs at all.

He didn't ask his voters and followers to stop rioting, or when a secuity guard was injured, all of which was the reason why the riot squad was called.

She had four previous convictions for motor related offences. She should have been banned for life. This is a shocking decision .. the original decision was far too lenient (guess the judge) she should have been jailed.

She knew for days her son was involved in this horrendous attack on women at that station .. it took the Gardai having to get a warrant to arrest them in their houses. Any decent parent would have brought their child to the Gardai station to get it resolved.
Most pigs in Ireland never see sunlight. Most sows are kept in cages for half their lives too narrow to turn around. It's a horrible short life. It's cruel and done to maximise profit.

Here’s a picture I took last week @ Hem Farm in the Somme region. Pretty sure every soul buried here who gave their lives so those pricks could have the right to turn their backs would be disgusted with them.
Do listen to.. “the good people of coolock” clapping and cheering as the fire is started. The people at these “protests” with their kids are not “good people” .. not one of them .: don’t give them legitimacy by calling this a protest
Bailey was born approx 2 yrs ago today, an unwanted Xmas present then into a rescue and then to us. He is an incredible dog, full of fun & love for everyone he meets. A very enthusiastic but terrible mouse hunter 😀, we love him so much. Happy birthday Bailey 🥰🥳🎂
This cannot be shared enough .. everybody should see this .. this is the reality of gambling. This is what happens when you go horse racing , this what people do "who love their horses" ... all for gambling.

was an absolute hero for bringing in the smoking ban. The opposition to it was immense at the time and looking back on now the objections were ludicrous.

My heart goes out to Edel for being put through this by O'Doherty's absolutely despicable behaviour . I wish her every success in her case.
Just a state sponsored ad reminding you that if you don’t drive you are a burden to others .. a looser in life …. Ffs .. these people need to be sacked.
When you lose your licence, you become reliant on other people to take you where you need to go and you become a burden for others.
If you get caught drink or drug driving, you will be disqualified 🚫

4 years of public consultations , four years of objections , 4 years for a tribunal to see why the budget is 4 times higher and then 4 years to build something that is no longer fit for purpose.
The end of another busy day for Bailey. He’s at one of his “fear” stages so getting the right socialisation now will go a long way in preventing problems in the future. Lots of play, exposure around crowded places , kids of all ages , noise other dogs and ..sleep 💤
Stop the funding of Greyhound racing and ban it. There is no good to be had from it. The dogs ALWAYS , ALWAYS suffer. Don’t @ me about “proper regulation” it doesn’t work. Anywhere there is gambling and animals there is horrendous abuse.

Hi Clare .. Russia aimed missiles at Ukrainian Citizens last night, killed at least 16, their MOD confirmed "Right on Target" .. There are women and children dead and you still shill for Russia and China. You do not represent the overwhelmingly majority in Ireland. Shame on you.
@SimonHarrisTD
Just order them closed now .. it’s a bank holiday weekend .. some people think “I’ll be grand” they are not thinking of others. Remove the option for them to kill others.
Today is Baileys 1st Birthday 🥳 he was born around this time one year ago. His journey to us involved being an unwanted Christmas present to somebody else and rescued. He is the happiest, loving most playful dog. We love him to bits. Happy birthday little buddy ❤️
#Adoptdontshop
I have a better Idea. Lets give the €95M the Race horsing and Greyhound racing industries get to the rescues and they can have the €6M and rely on Handouts and donations .. but since they "generate a huge amount" for the Country they shouldn't need any of that at all.
Delighted to announce 101 animal welfare charities are to share €6 million in funding. Among them are Animals in Need Donegal (€55,200)
@ISPCA
Donegal Animal Rehabilitation Centre (€32,400) and Twin Towns Lost and Found Dogs (€27,850). Allocation is up €200k on last year
@Fergal_D5
Lol... It's still there 4 hours after reporting it to the Gardai in Raheny which is about 1km away from it. Nothing has changed ..The Gardai don't care..
Department of Agriculture shamefully approves €160,000 salary package + company car for next CEO of Greyhound Racing Ireland. The cruel and dying greyhound "industry" has received over €328 million of public funds to-date
Can you believe this BS .. still capturing a wild animal , caging him , subjecting him to everything he would flee from , but hosting him up in the air for a little bit less. Shame on that Vet , shame on that backward fair and all involved just to line their pockets.
How would this have been reported if the driver of the car killed the cyclist ? Would the RSA and the Gardai appealed to drivers to “slow down and be more aware” and yet provided with video evidence the driver gets a caution .. it’s a joke.
Beat the energy crisis and rescue a dog. Great at keeping you warm and breathing into your armpit 😀. Bailey has done this since he was a tiny pup .. he loves tucking his head under your arm. Something very soothing about having a dog fall asleep on you.
@DurrutiDub
-We are not racists. We were just being racist and then the Garda escorted women and children in and we had not choice but to shout abuse at them and it’s the Gardas fault. We dropped a few old toys up later.
Quite possibly the stupidest thing I have seen today. Life expectancy has increased over the centuries due to things like NOT BURNING TURF IN SMALL HOUSES WITH NO VENTILATION
Turf has been burned across Ireland for centuries in small houses with no ventilation, and now, all of a sudden, people are suffering chronic illnesses.
If you open your mind and think for a second, it's not that hard to identify these statements as pure nonsense. .

One of our long-time supporters witnessed this appalling accident last night. This poor horse was attached to a sulky & ran over this cattle grid, getting its hoof stuck. Everyone tried to release him but they couldn’t. (1/3)
Sickening. Utterly sickening. We have front line workers in this country using food banks , people who dedicate their lives to doing good … this person will do nothing good. Their position exists because of gambling , their industry abuse and kill dogs for gambling. Disgraceful
Ministers
@McConalogue
and
@Paschald
have incredibly agreed to a €160,000 salary for the next CEO of Greyhound Racing Ireland. With all the cruelty and killing and virtually empty stadiums, the government should be shutting this shameful "industry" down
Your money being misspent , €763,000 would have hired a lot of nurses , mental health specialists, relived children in chronic pain , built a few playgrounds .. but forcing dogs to run and die is more important.
There are 41 bedsits sitting idle for a couple of years now just off Tonlegee road North Dublin , they were housing for elderly, now boarded up as a new development was to be built ..what happened? can they not be reopened in the short term as emergency housing?

It would seem pointless to continue to lockdown towns unless you do something about the meat packing plants and conditions the employees are made work and live in. This will continue to happen otherwise.
Drove the Motorhome for 300km at ~90kph on the Motorway instead of 100kph, saved €8.2. That's a lot of money. Difference in travel time~15 minutes due to general slow downs off ramps on ramps etc. I don't know why we aren't lowering speed limits during a climate and fuel crisis.
Fox hunting is cruel and barbaric. The people who do it are savages. If people try and tell you there are only drag hunts here they are lying. Fox hunting needs to be banned in Ireland.
This is the moment a fox is rescued after being trapped in a bag and buried alive.
After the release of this exclusive footage, filmed by a hunt saboteur, the British fox hunting governing body suspended The Cotswold Hunt.
Gloucestershire police are investigating the incident.
