Ireland needs about 3 nuclear reactors to cut everyone's power bills by at least 50‰, and about 5 to be self sufficient.....

What is this nonsense, nothing here is unknown. Essentially don't cook dinner at you know, dinner time... That's your best advice. Total waste of money, probably tax payers too.

This is why you should always cancel the direct debit and pay manually each month. Also never have direct debits coming from your main high value account where they could actually take that much.

I noticed quite early on media outlets were suddenly told to go dark on this. Even now @SkyNews nothing more, no updates....

Police have closed a London park after an Islamist 'terror cell' claimed drones carrying 'radioactive and cancer-causing materials' had been launched towards the Israeli embassy.

@paulmurphy_TD We are not neutral.... And you will scream and shout when Europe is attacked in the coming years as to why we did not build up our military.

We must not allow FF-FG to scrap the triple lock. It will mean that they will be sending our young people abroad to fight and die in imperialist wars for the US / NATO.
Public opinion is on our side, but it's not enough. We have to show them the opposition on the streets.

Some towns around the country are like Trainspotting... Hords of little tracksuit wearing druggies... The smell everywhere now of drugs is ridiculous. In Wicklow Town, there are entire families, parents and kids all smoked out of their brains.

@Niall_Boylan John is an absolute idiot who'd have us all living in caves.

If you read this garbage you will never get the ten minutes of your life back.
Carbon tax or taxing people because you tell them it will change the climate is the biggest lie believed by a small percentage of people.

@richdev1ne It's a difficult decision... For me my roof is not ideal either.
English
@colmsmyth Oh yeah. I just don't fancy being 6 grand out of pocket and it take five or six years to have made it back from lower electricity bills.
English
Really.... Tell that to my bills.....
Leo Varadkar@LeoVaradkar
A good example of a misleading headline attached to an otherwise well written article - useful for any media studies class. Weak editor in situ. The facts:- Ireland's relatively lower taxes, levies and government supports mean electricity prices in Ireland are the 15th highest in the EU - that is about average.
English
@richdev1ne Key is to not worry about that aspect. If you are saving lots on your bill that's the important part. If you get batteries too you can run the house on battery every odd night and pay nothing for those nights.
English
@colmsmyth Yeah I'd love solar, but the time it takes to actually make your money back is ridiculous

@richdev1ne yeah and i have an EV coming next month 😬 Need to get me some solar...cheatest in Ireland is about 10K....feck that
English
@colmsmyth That's insane. Yeah I mean I don't have a big house, most of our electricity use is charging the wife's car, and soon mine as well when I change
