As Education Minister, @NormaFoleyTD1 has not created one class teaching post at PP. Yet over her time has created 2,500 class posts at primary. PP schools never got pupil teacher ratio of 18 to 1 restored. What an imbalance

Speaking to someone who works in mental health today who said the stress people are under from money problems is at a level unseen before. 2 yrs of lockdown, job losses & constant rising cost of living. Not sure our Gov even realise the damage they're doing to their own people

And the examiners couldn't turn up for orals, how convenient when a lot of them have family and holidays planned, no planning once again and covid is still out there and ignored by education..examiner standby is needed obviously.

My time capsule narrative for the Irish census. Forgive the awful handwriting. Arthritis in my hands doesn't allow for lovely penmanship anymore. Ah, well. Point made, I hope. May 2122 be a damn sight better! #Disability #carers #unpaidcarers #Census

What a magnificent lady. I wish we could clone her! Every word she speaks is well researched, honest and true.
We've used three private member's motions in less than a year. Used promised legislation - used every possible democratic procedure on Government to have a debate. And when we have the debate, not a single female TD from Government side comes to participate @catherinegalway #NMH

The best way for Norma Foley to experience her "vision" of the Leaving Cert is to try and persuade the people of Kerry to vote her out and send her back to her old job (teaching) in 2025.
Know anyone in Kerry?
Of course she'll probably try & scab a gig in the Senate if she loses

This appointment was to finally see what was wrong with him, why he kept taking such frequent asthma attacks and stopping breathing .
After she sat in the hospital for hours she was told that no
