Portrait of a failing industry - Irish journalists are predominantly left wing, liberal and middle class. They do not represent a broad spectrum of public opinion. rte.ie/news/2023/1211…

This was Lebanon in the 1960s, when it was still a Christian country and known as the Paris of the Middle East. Lebanon was created to be a Christian homeland for persecuted Christians in the region. But like naive Westerners today, it decided to be multicultural and include Muslims in the country. Once Muslims became the majority, they started a war to overthrow the Christians who welcomed them, and the country has not known peace ever since. Lebanon is the ultimate example that coexistence between radically different cultures is impossible.

@irishexaminer Next week - new to the parish now left the parish and laughing all the way to the bank...

Department overpaid over €17m of welfare to people who have left the country irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4181…

@thejournal_ie Or the more obvious explanation - Ireland's far left clowns like to believe that the world is waiting on every word they utter but the simple reality is that no one even knows they exist.

President Connolly must be a man? Donald Trump’s misgendering of Catherine Connolly sparked frustration — but it reflects a deeper, persistent bias about who we expect to hold power, writes Dr Suzanne Crowe. jrnl.ie/6989583

@FineGael Fine Gael (in power for 15 years) have destroyed Ireland.

Fine Gael & Seán Kyne supports the expansion plans of Galway Port to facilitate larger ships and to free up the inner dock for living, recreation and leisure. Read more: finegael.ie/expanded-galwa…

@VirginMediaNews @gavreilly But Gav told us all that he was retreating with the lefties from X because it was (quote Garry poison pen Gannon) a toxic place???

Politics doesn’t have to be confusing… you just need someone to break it down 🧩 @gavreilly makes sense of the stories that matter. 📺 Monday with Gavan Reilly | Every Monday 10pm | Virgin Media One.

@robbiekane74 Islam is incompatible with western society. These same people view Christianity as incompatible with their culture so at least that's something we can all agree on.

@irishexaminer Would you even buy a second hand car from this idiot?

Government to tackle fuel prices, help the vulnerable and hauliers next week, Tánaiste confirms irishexaminer.com/news/politics/…

@Independent_ie Muslims serve Islam and no one else - fact. People like Mamdani rely on idiot white 'journalists' to push their Islamic narrative.

@frank_oconnor Time for the mad left to stand up and own their failed socialist housing policies which triggered the eviction of over 20,000 renters in Ireland in 2025. Socialism always fails. x.com/Independent_ie…

Renters are human beings with rights too Lets kick the coloniser mindset out of Ireland & ensure everyone has a secure, safe & affordable home We live with Dóchas 🙏

When FF and FG implement the left's housing policies on rent controls....

@Independent_ie 'Director of the RTB Rosemary Steen insisted that landlords were not fleeing the sector.'?!?

Big jump in number of eviction notices ahead of new rental rules coming in buff.ly/dqu2soY

@Independent_ie Who is surprised that doctrinaire socialist housing policies are making people homeless? These are the mad policies of the far left.

@EmployRightsIE Rent controls were introduced in 2016 and a decade later the obvious conclusion is that not only have they failed but they have contributed to spiralling rents for renters! No opposition party is prepared to call out these failed policies because they are leftist policies.

RTB data today. Dublin rents are up 70% in a decade. €1,259 to €2,145 a month. That is €25,750 a year just to rent. Over 8 years that is €206,000 paid out, and these same people are told they do not earn enough for a mortgage. This is not normal & people aren't furious enough

@aoifehegs But still waiting for the RTÉ Investigates into the failure of your ex CEO Dee Forbes to appear before the Oireachtas Media Committee?!* Neither has she given any account of her actions 2 years on! Any chance of door stepping Dee like you do with other miscreants???

It’s been quite the week of nominations. Beyond honoured our undercover documentary - RTÉ Investigates: Inside Ireland’s Nursing Homes - has also nominated for an RTS Ireland award. #RTEInvestigates

@NewstalkFM Worth remembering - the cowboys who wanted to convert an old paint factory in Finglas into a money-making asylum fraud accommodation centre were not required to have planning permission?!*!

ESB workers have arrived at an illegally built mansion in County Meath, following a legal battle spanning more than 20 years. Chris and Rose Murray made five failed attempts to get retention, and they told Amy Molloy of the Irish Independent that they feel they are being 'treated worse than the Kinahans'. They built the home in 2006 without planning permission. Speaking to Claire Byrne this morning, Rose said: "There's a warrant out for myself and my husband's arrest" over the ordeal. Earlier this week, Meath County Council took possession of the property, which was constructed without planning permission. The electricity supply is now set to be disconnected, with demolition crews expected to begin work shortly afterwards. 🎧Watch for more and listen back to the entire interivew on the GoLoud app.

@FineGael Fine Gael in power for 15 years now and the life stage of buying your own home which was once standard in Ireland is now beyond the reach of most working Irish people. Fine Gael totally own this housing failure and your spin doctors can't change a simple fact.

Fine Gael is taking action on housing with 3,423 new homes beginning construction last month — an increase of 232% on the same period last year.

@IrishTimes Crocodile tears from the people who are screwing Irish house buyers... irishtimes.com/business/irish…

Irish house prices rose at an annualised rate of 7 per cent in January while the average price paid for a home in Dublin is now close to €600,000. The figures indicated that the average price of a dwelling purchased in the 12 months to January was €432,082 while the mean price paid in Dublin was €592,594. The average price paid in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, the most expensive local authority area, was €789,619. irishtimes.com/business/2026/…

@LarryPDonnelly But Micheál managing to sneak through a few porkies about our 'robust immigration' system which could see Irish people becoming a minority in their own country by 2015? x.com/spikedonline/s…

The prevalent reaction - that the Taoiseach acquitted himself very well - of journalists who cover President Trump is telling. The bottom line is that Micheál Martin performed solidly in difficult circumstances. jrnl.ie/6988078

@tonyannett Socialist boomer Robinson has been on a presidential pension of €100k+ per year for the last 29 years after her 7 year stint as President of Ireland?!*! For Mary it's a case of 'do what I say, not what I do'? This is socialism.

The first vote I ever cast was for Mary Robinson as president, and I’m still proud of that one.

@DavidLammy @SimonHarrisTD Harris, leader of Fine Gael, is widely viewed as a bust flush in Ireland. As Minister for Health he oversaw the commissioning of Ireland's National Children Hospital - initial budget of €600m now at €2.25bn +.

Happy St Patrick’s Day! ☘️ Great to meet Tánaiste @SimonHarrisTD yesterday. The relationship between the UK and Ireland is deep, historic and forward-looking. We’re working together to strengthen cooperation, support peace and prosperity, and build a strong shared future 🇬🇧🇮🇪
