In front of the Justice Committee, Drew Harris said he never uses the term "thugs", while describing those involved in riots, before Lynn Ruane pointed out it was in his statement and he had already said it.

Both the suspect and a child involved in a stabbing incident in Dublin are from a migrant background, the Taoiseach has confirmed. “I really would ask people to try and avoid connecting crime with migration. It's not right,” Mr Varadkar said.

A woman leaves flowers and a letter and takes a quiet moment at the scene where two children and their teacher were attacked yesterday in Dublin. A city in shock.

Danny Healy Rae has just told the Dáil: "Eamon Ryan has gone off to COP, he'd need to get some Cop On." A pun that could only work in Dáil Eireann.

“Of the five or six people who intervened to stop the attack. Four of those six are migrants to this country. It's totally wrong to try and make out that there's a connection between crime and migration based on what happened on Parnell Street.”

Irish house prices are now on average almost eight times the national average wage. In Dublin, more than 10 times. Av Dublin rent is now €2,102pm. 30,000 households were evicted in the past three years, more than during the height of the Famine.

Excl: Pending cabinet approval tomorrow. Irish Government sources have confirmed to the BBC that the £400m once promised for the A5 road to Derry is to be restored. The funding was cut in 2011 during the crash to much disappointment. Big day for commuters.

Micheál Martin, the Irish foreign minister, called Israel’s bombardment of Gaza ”disproportionate” and “not necessary”. "I believe it contravenes the fundamental principles of international humanitarian law, where necessity and proportionality are key.”

X has claimed that the Gardai did not request any posts related to the Dublin riots until days after and McEntee’s statement is inaccurate.

This is inaccurate. We have proactively taken action on more than 1,230 pieces of content under our rules relating to the riots.  We met with the Coimisiún na Meán on November 24 to discuss our response. The Gardai did not make any formal requests to us until late Monday 27th

Many highly populated areas of Dublin were left with only one patrol car yesterday and there was a scramble to find an officer to cover the home of the Irish president, Áras an Uachtaráin. Drew Harris is to meet the GRA tomorrow to try and resolve issues.
