This morning @Aidan_Regan on RTE radio 1 telling it as it is, that disability and caring is very much a priority on the doors. As a carer running for election and with a proven track record of getting results for my community I’m asking you for your No.1 #Vote4TheCarer ♿️

Bernard is deserving of that number 1, always willing to support the ordinary people and fight for those who need support whether it be workers, disability activism, housing, carers. He’s theman to bring change once and for all, best of luck @mulvanypeopleb1
We have a real chance this Friday for the change that people want, no crave. I’m asking you to look at what I’ve done over the past 5yrs and give me your No.1 Communities need hope, help me to offer them that hope. Vote Mulvany No.1 on Friday 29th. #VoteForChange

Once again what about children with special needs who are continuously being failed with lack of or non existent school places, little to no services, teachers & snas who need more supports, training, the list goes on #EnoughIsEnough
Fianna Fáil is the Party of education. An excellent contribution here from Minister @NormaFoleyTD1 on how we will build on our legacy in education, if returned to Government.

It appears I’m working for @fiannafailparty now. I wonder is an election coming because since it was first introduced back in 2020 I’ve been calling for payments to be brought up to €350 min needed to survive and now @MichealMartinTD agrees!!! Is there an election coming! 😉

It’s really satisfying to see the workers get some justice after the horrendous treatment they were subjected to from theis employer. We spent months on the picket so it’s bitter sweet to see them triumphant. @dgrimes14891 @JohnPBPWhipple @pb4p

Fergus had a significant impact on everyone he met, he always saw the best in people no matter the circumstances. I’ll always be Grateful for our memories, endless trips from cavan to Germany and of course your words of wisdom. Missed not just today but always💙
Today marks the 4th anniversary of Belvo legend, icon and co founder Fergus McCabe. Fergus worked tirelessly & selflessly for the people of inner city Dublin helping so many within Belvedere Football Club & Dublins inner city with his impact still evident to this day.

Let's take a moment to recognise and support the non-speaking and nonverbal community. Communication comes in many forms, whether through sign language, communication devices, gestures, or facial expressions🌎✨ Let's raise awareness and foster understanding together!🤝💙

The state is failing children with special needs. PBP stands with the parents of those kids left without school places, waiting for assesments of needs or just fed up with lack of supports, protesting at the Dáil today. Another Ireland is possible.

The reality is that children who need additional supports have always been neglected by the Irish State. Over the past 20yrs families have slowly seen a deterioration in services and their standard of living. We need that to change! @pb4p offer that change!

Great to finally see support in the fight for our children with additional needs 💪🏻 whether it’s lack of school places, lack of services, reduced timetables if we don’t stand up for our children now things won’t change As always @pb4p @mulvanypeopleb1 standing with the people.
Ireland is failing our kids with special needs. We met with parents, teachers and SNAs yesterday to hear their stories and demands. Next Thursday we are bringing this to the floor of the Dail with a motion to the Dail to champion their call for school places for all.

Great to finally see former employees getting entitlements and what they deserve 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
“Dublin store worker penalised for union activity is awarded six months’ pay.” After spending months on the picket with the mighty #Iceland workers last year it brings some joy to see sanction against the employer who treated them with disdain! https://t.co/OJLHmWtOe6

We’ve had 13yrs of Gov and two ministers for disability yet we’ve gotten poorer. Now we read the ERSI report that we have gotten poorer!! After two ministers for disability in office and things only getting worse how can that be seen as progress. The referendum has shown us

Our own Bernard in town very early this to support those families without school places for their children with needs for the upcoming school year. Once again a parents have to come out very early in the morning, tired and cold to fight for their children. It’s shameful.
.@AccessForAll7 calling out the government (in particular Taoiseach Simon Harris) for the predicament parents of children with additional needs find themselves in without a school place for their children.

Equality in Education protest today at the Department of Education. As an SNA this is a cause close to my heart. Children I've worked with as an SNA don't have school places for this Sept. They should be in school today with their peers but instead are having to stand outside

Once again parents and carers have to resort to fighting for the rights of their children. Once again our children with additional needs are left floundering in a sea of hopelessness! @SimonHarrisTD this cannot continue and it needs immediate action. A demo has been called
