Problems run deeper than @GardaTraffic ,into all state institutions and @WRC_ie . Regardless of wrongdoing it's worthwhile for them to treat #Whistleblowers appallingly. The uphill battle faced is so expensive, lengthy & utterly destroying that few bother. Awards so low too.

A barrister acting for Garda whistleblower Lois West has said his client only learned late yesterday evening while a senior garda executive was testifying to the Workplace Relations Commission that her role in the force’s analytics service is "gone". courtsnewsireland.ie

@mickthehack Is it true the 50 year old, oldest ever recruit, who was flaunted all over the media last summer was one of them?

@HelenORahilly Learned a very long while ago that there were two particular dates that restaurants should be avoided at all costs. Valentines Day and Mother’s Day. No matter how good they are for the rest of the year, they all let themselves down with poor service, average quality food etc.

@HelenORahilly Happy Birthday. Helen Mad jealous. Wonderful city. Zuni restaurant is excellent, Rinucinnis opposite the entrance to the castle is also very good. Italian fare Tynans Bar at the bridge is a very cosy bar, usually some music on at weekends Enjoy

@udippy Agreed. A completely different jurisdiction. She would be better served addressing the needs of her constituency members. Matters such as housing, health, education etc

What has this got to do with Ireland This inane shite was laughed at in the British Parliament but is a pressing issue for sinn fein to raise in our Dáil🤦🏻‍♂️ That party are the biggest shower of USELESS WASTERS A total embarrassment🙌🏻

I raised the hunger strikers in Britain, I urged the Tánaiste Simon Harris to use his influence directly with the British Government. Qesser Zuhrah is now on her 47th day on the strike, action is urgently needed. Protesting genocide should not be criminalised.

@Bigmacandwhys @rtenews Unbelievable incompetence from the OPW. They could have purchased these lands for 5 million 3 years ago. Kilross properties now selling it for close to 12 million. All they had to do was close off the entrance. 7 million profit even allowing for CGT OPW are morons.

@rtenews The OPW was offered these lands for a reasonable price before they went on the market and couldn’t get their act together. Now the taxpayer pays the price again. That said, happy to hear they have finally done what they should have done in the first place.

The State has agreed a deal to purchase the lands around Castletown House in Co Kildare which will likely bring an end to a two-year standoff that led to the closure of public parking and access at the heritage site rte.ie/news/2025/1119…

The OPW has purchased 235 acres of historic lands at Castletown House, Celbridge, reuniting key parts of the estate and restoring long-term public access. This resolves the M4 access issue and supports the full reopening of the estate. More: cutt.ly/dtri81m6

@ReadaCronin @castletownOPW Are you for real. You do realise that the OPW could have bought these lands 3 years ago for 5 million euros. OPW took their eye off the ball and lands were bought by Kilross development for 5 million. Government today paying close to 12 million for same lands. Nice profit

Incredible news today that the lands of @CastletownOPW House have been finally reunited ensuring equal access for all! This has been down to tireless campaigning by local community groups such as #SaveCastletown, The Gate Protectors and many others. The community has won back this invaluable amenity through hard work, commitment and perseverance. Well done to Min Moran also, who listened to the community’s concerns and managed to secure the purchase of the lands. Ní neart go cur le chéile.

I live alone. I spent four months in hospital, and learned how to walk again after a stroke. I insisted I spend the first night home alone. In two months, my sister has stayed three nights, about the same as she would anyway. So this bloke, frankly, can fuck right off.
