At this mornings IMCO committee meeting I asked Commissioner for consumer protection, @EUCssrMcGrath for an update on infringement proceedings against Ireland in relation to defective concrete products. #100PercentRedress

Anyone care to answer this? Almost 3,000 families in Dublin & Leinster have rightly received 100% redress, the State directly taking responsibility for fixing their homes. Donegal, Mayo & the west, families face a different, unequal scheme. Why ?

“The researchers warned that the crisis is intergenerational, recommending that people be processed through the scheme more quickly to address “the true source of the toxic levels of distress and trauma symptoms.”

@ProfPaulDunlop @ciarathedoc @NewsTalk @NewstalkFM My daughter did her dissertation on the mental health impact of living with a defective block home. An architectural professor who read it, and had never heard of the crisis in Donegal, was outraged and wants her to submit it for publication in a US architectual journal.

He tortured us.. He tortured himself… But in the end, after one of the greatest rollercoaster rides in sporting history, ⁦@McIlroyRory⁩ put his Major demons behind him to become Masters champion, and look what it means to him. What a story. Congrats Rory! 👏👏

A long time coming. Congratulations, Rory. #themasters

It’s been a long time coming- everyone knows the importance of this- founds need to be replaced, homes need to be demolished and rebuilt- anything else is just a stop gap and it is just a cycle when homeowners end up back in the same place- thanks Joy!

Our 2023 paper was the first to identify that pyrrhotite was causing internal sulfate attack in defective concrete homes in Donegal & debunked the mica freeze-thaw hypothesis that had dominated everyone's thinking up to this point. I'm delighted our paper was awarded this today

Have we as a nation lost the ability to discuss a topic? To debate the pro and cons? Everything seems to resort to personal attacks, viewpoints arises from opposing someone not from our values. And always attack, attack, not the view but the person.

Any updates

DM doesn’t seem to be an option. It’s the fault in Clonmany Inishowen? When will it be fixed

Third outage in 13 days in the same area. No water for over 30 hrs on a BH ?!!!

The governments have beaten us down mentally and emotionally convincing the public that they have a scheme that works when the reality is 14 long years and 14 rebuilds anything else are repairs that with decay again. WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED

"We are the darkest page of history" Afghan women sing in protest. This #IWD is another day of erasure for us Afghan women. Under 126 Taliban edicts, our faces are banned, our voices silenced, our dignity stolen. This is gender apartheid. Do not look away.
