Young people can't afford homes because of taxes, paying carbon taxes so boomers can retrofit the homes they got for a couple of grand, to get the retrofit you need the money for the work to get the grant back, a joke of a system #fuelprotest #carbontax

@IrishTimes Why are they waving other flags other than the tricolour if they are protesting for Ireland's neutrality, or has the far left hijacked this protest

Hundreds demonstrate in Dublin to demand Ireland’s neutrality be protected irishtimes.com/ireland/2026/0…

The same Catherine Connolly that won a government restricted election for president, that told their parties to block nominations

@IrishTimes Nobody is claiming their power is being eroded, citizens rights are being eroded by the state, you know this but are either afraid of the state or being handled by the state

Opinion: The fuel protests show that a certain sector of workers still has the capacity to bring the country to its knees. In a world where many workers complain their power has been eroded, last week was an example of effectiveness of brute force. irishtimes.com/opinion/2026/0…

So right and centre right who want law and order and to end EU bureaucracy are labelled far right, but left and far left are labelled progressives, @rtenews is full of woke leftists and needs to be abolished

@thejournal_ie We have a government of tyrants who think they can do as they please if anybody crosses them

Media Minister Patrick O'Donovan has said he "made a hames" of expressing himself when saying he planned to "review" RTÉ's coverage of the recent fuel price protests. jrnl.ie/7016351

@thejournal_ie The government is charging protesters, they are finished at the next election

Every few months Fianna Fáil walks up the hill, talks about getting rid of Micheál Martin, and walks straight back down. This week on The Candidate, we ask: will they ever actually do it? Listen now pod.link/1439226641/epi…

@TGorrySolicitor @fellawrites I wouldn't like you representing me, your best argument is a laughing emoji

@fellawrites 😂😂

Read books. Fight fascists.

@PaulTreyvaud @MichealMartinTD This isn't a start, they're only worried about their careers, now that they're worried they're coming out with this, don't fall for this crap, they had a chance to get rid of Martin and they kept him

You don’t need to name him. We all know it’s @MichealMartinTD He is destroying your party and whilst this is a start, it goes nowhere near enough to salvage your party. If you are happy enough for your ‘leader’ to walk off into the sunset in the next 6 months whilst leaving you all sink in the swamp, then fair enough Or else rally your troops and organise the coup. He just threw JOC under the bus yesterday so there is no level he’s not prepared to sink to save his political face Take back your party. Show some leadership and you’d be amazed who’d follow. Otherwise, these are just words But one thing is for sure, @fiannafailparty is a party that’s in serious trouble Btw, if three lads from @FineGael said the exact same about @SimonHarrisTD , this statement would work just as well.

@thejournal_ie They aren't happy because their political careers are over, FF are finished, they had the chance to get rid of the rat Martin, but they took his bait and now they're all fucked

Fianna Fáil's youngest TDs aren't happy with government as fuel protest fallout persists. TDs James O’Connor, Albert Dolan and Ryan O’Meara say the "social contract is strained to breaking point". jrnl.ie/7013671

So @SimonHarrisTD you now believe in freedom of movement, so then you'll be ok with fixing our constitution to ensure you can't strip us of that right again #NoConfidence #fuelprotest

You've been covering for the government, nearly every single euro they've pissed away has been exposed by @Nick_Delehanty #NoConfidence

Many of those independents got elected because people voted for them protesting FF and FG, but didn't want to vote left, next election if you want right wing to be elected then only vote for a right wing party and no transfer of votes #NoConfidence

@MichealMartinTD You've took the people's money, squandering it all, we are decades behind other countries in terms of infrastructure, you're the worst leader this country has ever had, you sellout weasel

The Opposition claims nothing has been done. This is manifestly untrue. We are implementing significant action, with a total package of €750 million designed to very directly help protect jobs and keep costs down.

Péter Magyar werd in 2023 bij zijn scheiding van zijn vrouw, de voormalige minister van Justitie van Hongarije, schuldig bevonden aan het meerdere keren slaan van haar en daarbij ook een riem te hebben gebruikt. Hij bekende cocaïne te hebben genomen, en dat in niet geringe hoeveelheden. Hij was betrokken bij handel met insiderinformatie en werd daardoor een zeer rijke man. Hij zou zijn vrouw en andere vrouwen hebben mishandeld en misbruikt. Waarom lezen we niets over dit verleden van deze man? Waarom worden deze feiten niet gemeld? Dit is de man die volgens Von der Leyen Hongarije voor Orbán moet redden.

@thejournal_ie The government extorting Irish people with taxes because they refuse to cut their wasteful spending, this isn't just about fuel, we are fed up of the government putting Ireland last and splashing our cash on everything but the Irish people

Analysis: The government's half-hearted mantra during the fuel crisis did not wash with the public jrnl.ie/7010765

@sligococo Now I can see why she uses the snapchat filter

@MichealMartinTD We won't be bought, this government is going to collapse

We recognise and understand the pressures that have arisen due to rising fuel costs on all families and businesses. I am very conscious that we must support people, protect key services and make critical investments. This package is a significant response to real pressures.

They had to wait until their masters in the EU told them what they could do, if you're Irish and happy that your politicians have been compromised by outsiders then you need a head check #fuelprotest #fuelcrisis
