Smells Fishy!

how many media organisations participated, how many publicly funded bodies participated, and what sectors/workforces were most affected? #twip

Hi Ayne, Irish Jew here, daughter of a German born Holocaust surviver. I should be angry at this outrageously stupid and ridiculis post and was tempted to scroll on, with an eye roll, but found I could not. So.. here goes ..I love my country, Ireland, and its people. We Irish "give out" a lot about many things, and rightly so, but when it gets down to the nitty gritty we stick together, love and protect each other. There is a long history of oppression and colonialism in Ireland which allows us Irish to understand the subject pretty darn well. I have many many friends here, most of whom I have no clue of what religion they might or might not practice or even how they vote in elections as that is of no interst to me and its a vice versa thing. The Irish couldn't give a sheit if you are Jewish or not. They do however, give a sheit, if you are blowing children to pieces, commiting genocide and stealing homes and land. The few people who I do know to be Jewish or of Jewish decent, are venimtly anti Zionist, as am I, and can be found on the front lines of Free Palestine marches, even speaking at them. To us..never again means never again.. to any one ..anywhere... ever! I hope that clarifies the issue for you.

The Chair of Revenue Commissioners told PAC that a significant number of State employers availed of the amnesty. It is undeniably in the PUBLIC INTEREST that every state, semi state, and org that gets taxpayer money is identified. That absolutely includes main stream media.

@williamhboney1 We'll hopefully have fusion working before we could possibly have a fission reactor built, complete waste of time even considering it imo. I'd reckon fusion should be working well within most of our lifetimes, great strides being made with it lately.

It’s a distraction, simply kite flying to distract from this government’s many costly failures. There is nobody alive in Ireland today who will ever see this happen. Media is worse for playing along with such bullshit.

@BTriagain They always conveniently forget the Greeks coined British isles long before a place called Britain ever existed. They took the name from the archipelago, a greek name derived from the Celts 😅 pretty funny when they use that argument really.

Unionists say they're British because they think Ireland is in the British isles. They also say the Malvinas are British. British outside of Britain is just a term they use when they want to retain old colonial possessions. Unionism dilutes the term British of any meaning.

A grown adult took aim down the sights of his rifle directly at the face of a 13 year old child and pulled the trigger and for over 50 years British politicians have and will continue to protect him. Shame on anyone standing with soldiers A and E. x.com/i/status/20498…

The ensheddification of Ireland’s housing

When you weren’t blaming migrants for for your housing crisis you were blaming single mothers @MichealMartinTD You will always have an excuse to punch down in the crisis @FineGael and @fiannafailparty created Michael but never a solution.

@williamhboney1 @irishcongress Problem with Irish unions is they don't care about employees, they only care about the big boys in the club at top and staying cosy with employers to make themselves feel powerful and have a contrived sense of control over their members. Pigs at a trough

It is the failure of Unions in Ireland that workers have no right to mandatory union recognition. Useless shower of self enriching cap doffers. Irish unions are the laughing stock of Europe’s unions @irishcongress

@paul_gavan @fiannafailparty @irishcongress #CollectivebBargaining doesn't work when the Union makes agreement without consultation or vote, lie to members about rights to protect employers, threaten employees that don't fall in line, tell 2 faced stories depending who they're talking to etc never join a union in Ireland..

Debate on strengthening #WorkersRights has began in the #Dail. Just one representative on Government benches to hear the debate. No sign of anyone from @fiannafailparty . Disgraceful from this government. Still no right to #CollectiveBargaining for Irish workers. @irishcongress

One occupier points at another and says ‘they’re worse than us’.

Ireland at the top of the table in not enriching warmongering weapons manufacturers.

Yeah, but we don't. It's factually incorrect A German worker on 60k pays 37.5% income tax An Irish worker on 60k pays 25% A German worker on 90k pays 41% income tax An Irish worker on 90k pays 33% How this stuff gets by editorial process every other week is mad

Represent how exactly Breda? Endorse joining NATO? Shake hands with Netanyahu? Stroke Trump’s ego? The electorate chose this President exactly because she wouldn’t cave into Irish times niche gobshittery.

Irish priest prays for the lord to take Donald Trump.

BREAKING: Alan Shatter Accuses Bosco Of Being Antisemitic

This was shared in schools recently and it's beyond ridiculous. Timber production matters, and Sitka spruce has a place. But we shouldn’t blur the line between commercial forestry and biodiversity rich ecosystems, especially in material aimed at children. Honesty matters.

@williamhboney1 @AndyMcDeeOne Deposit return is similar. Consumer pays the cost (time taken to return) and those that can afford it just chuck the bottle away, producer pays nothing with no incentive to change from plastic. Most plastic isn't really recyclable, a scheme made by producers to burden consumers.

@AndyMcDeeOne I get it that carbon tax is at least something in a sea of nothing, but it's the wrong something. Targeting behaviour is a top down not bottom up process if somebody is really serious about doing something effective. The producer evades the costs, the consumer pays in general.

John is a great environmentalist, he is passionate about the greatest threat facing humanity but I disagree about carbon tax. It is fundamentally unfair. Those suffering least, the top 10%, are by far the biggest carbon producers. Target wealth and you target behaviour.
