More than 1,000 have applied to buy 99 so-called affordable homes in Dublin. Over 900 of them will be disappointed. Overwhelming demand highights desperation of the locked-out generation. Govt has lost control of housing disaster. @RoryHearneGaffs

The US attack on Venezuela was as a breach of international law - and the Govt should say that. Ireland relies on international law. It is fundamental to our safety as a small nation When breaches of international law go unchallenged, the rules that protect us are all weakened.

Climate Minister has conceded we will only reduce greenhouse emissions by half of our 51% target by 2030. This is a staggering admission of failure. It will result in billions in fines. Govt has thrown in the towel on climate action. @WhitmoreJen

Irish airspace was used by the US as part of an active military operation, something wildly out of step with previous policy. Was this sanctioned by the government or an overstep by the US? Urgent clarity is needed https://t.co/molD0eYtvs

No occupied territories bill, no cap on childcare costs, no right to housing, no right to homecare. By any metric this is a go slow government and dysfunctional Dáil. Where is all the “new energy” we heard so much about gone?

Having seen the work that her SocDems representatives were doing in her local area, Samantha was inspired to join the party. As a party, we're committed to real and positive change – but we can't do it without our members. If you want to see change, then why not join us?

The verdict is clear - this is a go-slow government and a dysfunctional Dáil. Last year fewer bills were enacted than any year since 1922. But this isn’t just a numbers game. It’s about substance too. My op-ed published by the @thejournal_ie today 👇 https://t.co/PlBro3bNgk

The Social Democrats were proud to be first on the ground supporting Catherine Connolly's presidential campaign. If, like Luke, you want to see hope for the future and positive change, then don't hesitate – join us today.

Sometimes, it takes just one issue to convince you to join a political party. For Dylan, it was the Social Democrats' disability policies that stood out. If you think our policies reflect your values, then why not join us?

I lied to a liar. He's what's wrong with this party. HE'S THE PROBLEM. NOT ME. Tell that lying little creep that the United States Senate gets to advise and consent on judges NOT THE CLERGY. If his gang wants to have a say in picking judges, TELL HIM TO RUN FOR THE SENATE
