Government are claiming that this money will be used to upgrade these houses although there was an estimated €141 million underspend in social housing in 2023, I suppose this increase will be to cover the €125m being sent to Ukraine!!

So no energy package for the Irish this winter during a cost of living crisis instead €125 million of Irish taxpayers money is to be given to Ukraine!!! Hands up all the dickheads who voted for this government in the last election, thanks a lot 😡😡

@SimonHarrisTD failed this little boy and his family along with lots more, that's fact!! Anyone who defends and lies for him should resign also!! @Paschald #JusticeForHarvey #resignsimonharris

Why only weeks after loosing a child should parents have to fight for answers and justice for their son instead of grieving his death?? They have been failed by @SimonHarrisTD over and over again #JusticeForHarvey #resignsimonharris

@westie1988ie Actually,9 out of 10 times if I fancy something from my local fast food and I couldn't be bothered driving there myself,if I didn't use Uber eats then I'd probably just make food at home so I think these company are helping local businesses 🤔

I don't doubt it!!!

If this ipas center is allowed to open in the quiet village of Ballyliffen in Co. Donegal then I fear for all communities around Ireland, this need to be stopped NOW!! *Video is not mine* facebook.com/share/v/12Gp5D…

@RuthCoppingerSP Hate mongering!!! You were asked a question which You refused to answer with HATE!! Look in the mirror, hypocrite!!! @griptmedia

I refused to answer a question on immigration from the Gript just now on the #Dáil plinth. He immediately was rallied around by a few pol corrs, that he was a member of the press council. If some journalists want to normalise them fine, but I’m not feeding their hate-mongering.

@rtenews Hang on please Mr unvetted migrant,don't stab me until I check my booklet to see what my best possible course of action is here!!!

Every household in Monaghan is to receive a booklet with the aim of helping residents across the county to be prepared in the event of a range of emergencies rte.ie/news/regional/…

@DublinTaxiDave @TheLiberal_ie Ireland is taking the piss out of Ireland ffs...

@TheLiberal_ie Ukraine is taking the piss out of Ireland. #UkrainianFriends

This Ukrainian car is in Ireland 2 years, paying no car tax, no NCT and no VRT. If it was an Irish person, they’d get 30 days to pay VRT or the car confiscated. If an Irish driver’s tax is out, fine or seized. So if gardai stop you at a checkpoint this week, show them this photo of a 2023 Ukrainian 6.2 litre Chevrolet Camero driving here with no VRT paid, no car test, no car tax, no proof of insurance or licence. Free accommodation, social and medical card included. He drove through SIX safe countries to get to Ireland for the gravy train. It’s one rule for them and another for us 🇮🇪🇺🇦 Follow and retweet - enough is enough #IrelandBelongsToTheIrish #IrelandIsFull

@derekbarnes2025 @breakingnewsie Actually they are doing something, planning on put water charges on all homes, that's what they are doing 🤬🤬

The principal of a Dublin school has said it will have to close because it can no longer afford to pay basic bills breakingnews.ie/ireland/dublin…

So these 3 lying bastards in the run up to the general election stood and told the Irish people that housing targets would hit close on 40k in 2024 even thought they knew full well that all new social housing projects have been put on hold since September 24!

@PadraigMacL Imagine instead of coming up with ways to NOT PROVIDE 100% REDRESS, this current government actually put as much effort into a scheme that would work for everyone then this mess could have been sorted over a decade ago!!

Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have committed to continue with their deeply flawed Defective Block Scheme in the Programme for Government. So there will be no 100% redress for the victims in the west of Ireland and most families will be left behind to live in their crumbling homes!

As an affected homeowner I feel "offended" by this comment and I would love to see proof of any "pattern of hostility towards housing agency staff".. Surly @DarraghOBrienTD if your department are making such accusations then they have poof to back it up??

@DonegalDaily Anyone got a box of tissues??

Watch: McConalogue breaks silence over online abuse directed at him - donegaldaily.com/2024/12/02/wat…

Fine Gael’s conduct in this election campaign has been extraordinary. At the outset it devised a budget that broke promises to keep social welfare payments in step at least with inflation, the failure over 13 years to provide houses for those who need them, the spectacular wastage of public money, the mountains of our cash to buy our votes, the inclusion of at least one thug among its candidates and a determination to shout down opponents in debates. Well done.

@BrendaDonagher @PaddyDiver4 @grainne_seoige @DonnellyStephen It's hard not to, there is so much!!!

@PaddyDiver4 @grainne_seoige @DonnellyStephen Grainne should do some due diligence, embarrassing to highlight your own parties incompetence.

Donegal has NO cancer treatment facilities So patients need to take a bus funded by a charity, so they can travel to Galway and experience the poor level of treatment that YOUR party colleague has overseen as Minister of Health @grainne_seoige

Irish journalism really is in the pits if this is the type of coverage we're to expect over the next few weeks
