Independent Ireland leader Michael Collins TD has sharply criticised the Government and opposition parties on the left for what he described as โpiling pressure on the people least able to bear itโ, as the cost of filling a standard home heating oil tank approaches โฌ1,000 in

Eh, no, that's a really silly idea.
@LindadeCourcy @DubCityCouncil No, you made a mistake. It's easier for people to get around the city, it's a little bit more difficult to drive around the city. I guess by this logic you will want to put the cars back flowing through Grafton St too.. hilarious

Dublin City is the capital of this Emerald Isle โ๏ธ๐ฎ๐ช. It is a city for everyone, not just people who live in the city centre. @DubCityCouncil is actively working to make it less accessible for those of us who do not live in the city centre by cutting off significant traffic

I lived just off Capel St for over 5 years, there was no "danger" associated with walking up and down the street on the footpaths. It's not the M50 ๐คฃ๐
@DublinTaxiDave @LindadeCourcy @DubCityCouncil I see the same businesses that were there before the pedestrianisation and i also see more people casually moving between those businesses on opposite sides of what used to be a dangerous game of running the gauntlet with traffic. Fail to see how its a sh1th0le. Care to explain?

@LindadeCourcy @DubCityCouncil It took me 20 minutes to cross Arran Quay North to Southside on Friday. The Traffic on the bridge and lights only allow 2 maybe 3 cars a time move off the Quay. If you are at the Docks and need to get to Andrew St, Depending on traffic sometimes it can take an hour to get

Unfortunately, this is some fake news from @real_eire . Not sure who their source was but it was not very reliable, or accurate...
@real_eire @independent_ire For the record, this meeting was arranged a couple of months ago before anyone knew Pascal would up and quit on Tuesday. Obviously, the by-election came up, I've been asked several times since Tuesday if I would run. No, is the answer. We are interested in running a candidate,

Mercosur must be the Irish Governments line in the sand against EU hypocrisy. -Michael Collins TD โThose states may get to live the trade dream. We will be left living with the nightmare of a decimated beef sector for many years to come.โ Read the full statement:

Lydia Foy is a man who availed of a gender recognition certificate. He โidentifiesโ as a woman but is not a woman. Itโs incumbent on public officials to recognise biological reality when speaking on these matters. To do otherwise is insulting to women.
3 remarkable women: Lydia Foy, Naoise Dolan and Jennifer Murray. From trans rights activism, to standing up for Palestine, to facing down racist attacks, they put courage, equality and solidarity into action. Maith sibh ๐น

When far left party policies come face to face with common sense policies, all they can do is throw insults. Means testing foreign nationals is one of THE most sensible and responsible things a government can do. @independent_ire
Labour TD says Ken O'Flynn highlighting the struggle of Irish pensioners and abuse survivors to get a medical card while Ukrainian passport holders get them automatically is "shameful" There is nothing shameful about highlighting the struggles Irish people face. There is nothing

Ken O'Flynn T.D. "We cannot go on handing out medical cards to anyone who happens to arrive here bearing a Ukrainian passport...It is astonishing to me that medical cards are being given out in this way when we have thousands of older people at risk of losing their medical cards
