As the Irish Government sets yet another target to build more houses this week and the @EU_Commission is asked to line up more cash to help , I believe MORE focus should be on getting younger apprentices started and increasing grant aid to renovate derelict houses - In Mayo I

How are we going to keep young farmers on the land ? I asked the EU Agriculture Commissioner @CHansenEU here in Brussels to follow up his talk on a new generational renewal plan with REAL cash for young people taking over farm #Farmers #Careers

Pat Leahy: Not since the earthquake general election of 2011, when Fianna Fáil was almost made extinct in the wake of the financial crash and the IMF bailout, have Irish voters delivered such a stunning result in an election https://t.co/0cRQ0vo6jT

Fine Gaels’s Jennifer Carroll MacNeill responds to last night’s TV debate on RTÉ by saying Catherine Connolly still has questions to answer. Follow our ongoing live coverage of presidential campaign on ⁦@IrishTimes⁩

I am urging people not to spoil their vote in the presidential election on Friday. A spoiled vote is a vote for Catherine Connolly and all that she represents. I will be voting for the only alternative, Heather Humphreys.

A housing activist challenges Catherine Connolly as being the "barrister for the banks" in Galway. "I don't understand how you can make speeches about homelessness if you're partly responsible for evicting people out of their homes" #aras25

Next Tuesday I will be back in Strasbourg to publicly protest with French and Irish farmers on this and other key agricultural issues in the streets outside @Europarl_EN - there are NO positives in this deal for Irish farmers - no matter what anyone claims. We must oppose

I’m certainly not the biggest fan of the Burke’s but I do believe the young man is not portrayed fairly in Catherine Connolly’s account of what happened. I didn’t hear him shouting at her. He didn’t talk over anybody and respectfully asked if he could ask a question. He then

@PaulTreyvaud This footage is deeply disturbing. To see #garda intervention at a college debate is communist playbook material. The chap was not breaching any laws.

@PaulTreyvaud I don't want a military man in the Áras and I thought @catherinegalway would be the better of the 3 candidates. But the smirking and lack of respect for a young man. That's really turned my stomach.

@PaulTreyvaud I genuinely thought @catherinegalway was better than this. How did she not simply say, ‘let him speak, he has a right to ask his question and I will try and answer it as best I can’

Irish public spending on welfare/redistribution as a share of all spending is now the highest in the OECD, at 58%. Yet more evidence of the left-leaning nature of Irish politics to add to this recent discussion. https://t.co/aMbbMad8tX
