Can dish it but can’t take it. You’ve been offending people for years right up to yesterday but because you think you’re morally superior you feel that your opinion of them should be above reproach. Grow up. And take what you give.
Schools full of 100% unvaccinated people to remain open. Pubs and restaurants with 100% vaccinated people to effectively close (5pm curfew). NPHET are making this shit up as they go along.

Micheal OLeary has offered the govt a system to identify the people who arrive after destroying their passports.
The govt doesn’t want the system because it wants the status quo to continue to please the EU commission which demands we take them. That’s what’s happening.

This is completely the fault of Roderic OGorman.
He went on social media and literally invited the world to come in multiple languages. So, they came. And then he couldn’t accommodate them. And he continues to want more to come.

Just in case you wondered why DeValera wrote a letter to the Nazi Govt offering condolences on the death of Hitler, it seems to be a permanent flaw in our political class.
Unpopular opinion but I think SF MPs should be given speaking (not voting) rights in the Dáil. They represent Irish people in six of our counties. As part of of move to reunify I think we should at least be listening to their voices and concerns.

‘Bad journalism’ is cosying up to the very people you should be holding to account. Revelling in the trap laid for a colleague is also being a pretty bad journalist.
Minister Roderic OGorman lied to the people to try to get a referendum passed. It’s just that simple.
How he hasn’t resigned is both amazing and depressingly to be expected.
Justice officials warned the family and care referendums risked creating prolonged “legal uncertainty” over migration rules before Roderic O’Gorman claimed the proposals had “no legal impact” on immigration law, newly-released records show.

Our cost of living is directly caused by our High Tax burden. We lose enormous amounts of our salaries to tax and then pay multiple taxes on the things we buy, including rents, energy, groceries, petrol etc etc. Our govt is insatiably greedy for tax.

Ireland badly needs a Milei. We need to cut the size of our enormous State, both government depts (jobs for the boys n girls) and the utterly corrupt NGO sector which drives most of the authoritarian instincts now evident in our laws.

Ireland imported almost 20,000 tons of peat in 2023, at a time when the Irish government was telling rural communities not to cut turf and the EU threatened to sue the country for those who did, Aontú candidate Mary T Sweeney said.
This is disinformation from the TD.
Ireland DOES have an opt out to take asylum seekers who travel from other EU countries under EU pact agreements. Denmark just did that very thing.
