Free public transport for children up to the age of nine!
As a Dad, I want to thank the #GreensInGovernment
Public transport is now free for children up to the age of 8!
With #GreensInGovernment public transport fares have been slashed, with passenger numbers hitting record levels as a result.

It's now down to Hazel Chu versus Aubrey McCarthy.
And it will be decided by Hugo MacNeill's transfers.
At the moment, Chu is ahead of McCarthy by 416 votes.
So, Aubrey McCarthy would need 417 more transfers from Hugo MacNeill to overtake Hazel Chu.

Another stroke being proposed by Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael to allow Michael Lowry to sit on Opposition benches.
You cannot be in government and opposition.
This is an insulting response to what was agreed in the Dáil last week. Total arrogance on the back of their grubby deal. We won’t stand for it.

Due to Storm Éowyn Sligo dialysis unit will be closed tomorrow.
Patients should have been contacted by now
With a few possible exceptions the following applies:
Friday’s patients attend Saturday
Saturday patients attend Sunday, unless otherwise told

This whole debacle is insane.
Michael Lowry is holding this Dáil to ransom
And what’s worse is that FF and FG are facilitating it.
The public see through this and don’t like it- a group is either in opposition OR in government.
New - Independent TD Michael Lowry says the creation of a Dáil reform committee, to resolve Standing Order issues, might be a solution to today’s standoff. He says the offer has been made but Sinn Fein appears to be opposing. He hopes a Govt can be formed tonight @rtenews

Top of the agenda for FF-FG?
Housing? Health? Costing of living?
No.
❗️More super Junior Ministers
❗️More money for Junior Ministers
❗️Facilitating Michael Lowry’s group to sit in opposition having just entered into an agreement to support the government for next 5 years.
Wouldn’t be allowed anywhere else in the world. Breathtaking arrogance!
FRT surveillance is a risky expensive technology, and has been condemned before by civil rights organisations and academics.

My family all evacuated safely but everything's gone.
The fires have been getting closer every year, but I never imagined this would happen in the month of January.

It is not anti-Israel to be pro-human rights.
It is not anti-semitic to seek an end to Israel’s brutal war on #Gaza
Deeply regrettable to see this personalised attack from #Israel
#CeasefireInGazaNow
Israel's foreign minister has accused Taoiseach Simon Harris of antisemitism as he defended Israel's decision to close its embassy in Dublin over Ireland's policies

Muhammad Khalifa came to Ireland twice with the Gaza Kids. He played football, gave us a window into life under siege, and warmed our hearts. He met President Michael D Higgins both trips. Today he was murdered by Israel, along with his brother and family members. He was 20. RIP
