@StephenMather6 @BlakeDonne76114 Onesided reporting about many things. An example: protests against ipas centres in communities are reported about only if there is unrest. We had peaceful protests and they were never mentioned. Also, they never question government policies like real journalists should

You might not realise this But he actually wasn’t allowed on state TV under Orban We really are lucky here in Ireland despite all the giving out we do about RTÉ
Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek)@magyarpeterMP

After a year and a half, I am back in the "public" television studio. We have just witnessed the last days of a propaganda machine. After the formation of the TISZA government, we will suspend the news services of the “public” media until its public service character is restored.

National defense in the event of a general mobilization due to a foreign invasion is not a voluntary matter. Some people do not understand this and frame legal measures as arbitrary “forced conscription”. That is not the case.

Merz and Zelensky announcing the repatriation of Ukrainian fighting-age men makes you think of two things. First, “to the last Ukrainian” is not an exaggeration. Second, if Ukrainians can be repatriated, then why don’t they repatriate other refugees?

BREAKING: "We will be coordinating closely to lower the number of Ukrainian men in the EU. It's important that they stay in Ukraine and fight," says Merz. Ukrainian men must return from abroad. We will address this issue jointly with European intelligence agencies, says Zelenskyy. Forced deportation based on ethnicity and gender. Unparalleled in history! Human rights activists, where are you?

If these 7 independent TD’s had voted against the government yesterday the count would have been 85 - 85 so the deciding vote would have rested with the Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy, who is also an independent. The Power rested with these so called Independent TD’s they should have represented our voices, but they didn’t!

@jasonomahony And we could have a section to pay extra tax for things people care about without forcing everyone else to pay for them. I guess all those ngos, foreign aid, carbon tax and ipas centres would disappear over night :)

What kinda sucks about Ireland is we have successfully unlocked an unlimited money machine by tying ourselves to the success of the most profitable companies in the world, that seem to grow no matter what happens, and we can't build the infrastructure to make us feel that wealth

Dont be fooled by this fool. If he cared about people he would not have lied to women with terminal cancer. He would not have lied to children living in agony with scoliosis. Every word out of his mouth is written for him by a former journalist or two who themselves lack any credibility or empathy, Every office Harris has held he has been a disaster, His entire career has been built on soundbites helped by a compliant media either afraid to hold him to account or paid not to.

@LeoVaradkar @SineadOS1 Thanks for engaging in this. You travelled the Europe, can you really claim that Irish infrastructure is as good as others? Look at Prague, Barcelona, Vienna, Berlin, Zurich and compare them to Dublin. My kids are getting education in prefabs. What do I get for 50% taxes?

What you've done is blatantly obvious. Picked the data points that suited the outcome you wanted and ignored those that don't. YES c. 35k irish grads left last year BUT roughly the same number returned AND with grads from overseas we had a net 'brain gain'. You'd fail my class

The protests in Ireland are not about just fuel! They are about the distance between Ireland on this graph and every other modern and developed economy. Ireland is second wealthiest but gets waaaaay less than any other country for that wealth. By a golden mile. That visual gap in this graph? That’s what people are protesting. It’s a lack of infrastructure and the everyday enshittification of services, the economy, and the additional difficulty of trying to live, relative to peers in any other country. It also highlights why people don’t get uniformly listened to! - because there is no government architecture to engage meaningfully across this huge gap. That gap is a three hour drive to work in traffic, a 14 month wait for an MRI, buses that don’t arrive, trains that don’t exist, schools that have no places for your kids, houses that are unaffordable, pubs that close before midnight, €12 sandwiches, expensive fuel. People feel this gap, even if they can’t explain it precisely. And that builds into resentment, and ultimately protest. Fuel just happened to be the next thing that could be pointed to, today.

Growing up is realising that in Titanic, Rose decides to throw away a $250 million pendant in memory of an unemployed man with whom she had sex one time. Meanwhile, her husband worked hard all his life to maintain her and give her and her children a life of luxury, and he would surely have also appreciated the inheritance and lived peacefully. She could have also given the pendant to her granddaughter, who took care of her her whole life. The real villain of the movie was Rose.

@danobrien20 Walk around any big city in Europe and compare its infrastructure to what you have in Dublin. Do you not want better for Irish kids? Do you think pretending what we have now is good will get us there?

Why this chart is wrong. Five metrics are used to measure 'infrastructure and public services', as per the first image, which shows Ireland to be a total outlier. Start with public capital spending as share of total govt expenditure. (Unfortunately) rich world governments spend only single digit percentages of total government expenditure on capital spending. As it happens, Ireland has the highest share in western Europe. The actual Eurostat data are charted in the second image. What about doctor density? Unlike public expenditure, where I'd claim some expertise, I'm certainly not an expert in health economics. But I've spent enough time looking at the numbers over the years to know that Ireland is not an outlier in the number of doctors it has relative population. Even the OECD healthcare at a glance report that is referenced as a source shows that. The table from the report is the third image. Finally, Ireland has almost no electrified rail. These figures seem correct, but is the energy source of your rail system indicative of the quality of overall infrastructure? I'd argue no, but that's a judgement call. So, two of the five metrics are completely wrong and the inclusion of a third (which happens to show Ireland by far the worst performer in west Europe) is questionable.

Where did lib women get this idea that taking care of kids and a home is "servitude" or "free labor." You know that's your house, right? Those are *your* kids. When you take care of a home, your reward is a nice home that YOU get to live in! It's not random labor for someone else's house! And when you take care of your kids, YOU get the benefit of spending time with YOUR kids and raising them how YOU want to. The injection of college-kid marxoid theory has done incredible damage to how women perceive marriage
🖤 Sophia 🖤@Richard_Vixen

Have you considered that most women don’t want the cost of subsidizing men’s career & lifestyle to be privately borne out by their servitude 🧐

No-one in the first 11 countries thought it was necessary to hold their state to ransom - despite Irish wages being higher in most of those countries above and below Ireland.
