I wonder how @HSELive would feel if a child in my daughters class tested positive for Covid 19, my daughter wasn't tested and I went to work in the nursing home non the wiser. Absolute disaster waiting to happen. Everyone in a small class room is a close contact

Arif from Afghanistan is the second asylum seeker to have died in Direct Provision in less than 5 months. He was placed in a dark, small and cold room during isolation at Tracey's Hotel, Carrickmacross, Co Monaghan a few weeks ago. He died by suicide yesterday.

Scenes at a Dublin restaurant last weekend were worrying, but the establishment have used the incident to bury any talk of meat plants & move on. Workers & wider community continue to be put at risk because govt refuses to confront the agri-corporations. pbp.ie/why-are-we-bei…

90% of meat plant workers still don't get sick pay. They are still forced to work in overcrowded conditions. Kildare, Laois & Offaly lockdown necessary now but was entirely avoidable if these workers had been adequately protected.

With the R-rate for Covid-19 now at 1.8 across the island of Ireland, we are running a serious risk of a second wave of the virus. Yet governments North and South continue to put workers and vulnerable people at risk. Read more 👇👇👇 pbp.ie/failure-to-pro…

We raised the issue of meat plants repeatedly during first wave of Covid-19. We were stonewalled, told we were trying to "smear" major food processors that were putting workers at risk. Now workers' health being jeopardised again & these clusters could contribute to a second wave
Paul Murphy 🇵🇸@paulmurphy_TD

The Minister accused me of trying to 'smear' the meat plants & Keelings by calling for them to be inspected. See what I said for yourself, and make up your own mind. The govt refuse to take seriously the concern of workers & unions that safety is being put at risk for profit.

Increased restrictions: Kildare, Laois and Offaly due to clusters in meat plants, where workers are still working in unsafe conditions. Workers still being put at risk. This in turn is risking further spread in the community. Unsafe workplaces must be inspected and sanctioned.

The Fianna Fáil-Fine Gael-Green Party government have just voted through the Residential Tenancies and Valuation Bill, paving the way for a surge of new evictions into homelessness on the grounds of sale, use or refurbishment. #HomesForAll

Ministerial Clap Rather than giving the three 'super' junior ministers another €16,000 on top of their €124,000 - @RBoydBarrett suggests giving them a round of applause like they gave healthcare workers on the frontline #Dail #corruptkip

Speaking now in #Dail now on scandalous move by FF/FG/Green gov to give junior ministers a 16k pay increase on top of 124k salary. This while taxi drivers & arts workers are on their knees, students without summer jobs pay fees, nurses & teachers suffer pay inequality! @pb4p

What we heard from @simoncoveney is biggest load of contradictory, inconsistent nonsense I’ve heard for a long time. Either people are to follow public health advice or they aren’t and it’s clear the govt are abandoning public health in favor of airline profits @morningireland

There is clear evidence that Apple’s tax advisor worked with the Irish Revenue Commissioners to let them off with a 2% tax rate. And that in 2007, they got their tax rate lower than 1%. The Irish state spent €8 million in legal fees to help Apple keep this money. #Apple #EU
