@Limerick_Leader @lawlor_aine Another great advertisement for the directly elected mayor.

@KeithMillsD7 @sinnfeinireland @MaryLouMcDonald Shocking performances by some of their TDs in the Dail. Reading from a supplied script and often, they're barely able to pronounce some of the words.

Why are @sinnfeinireland struggling? 1 Poor leadership; @MaryLouMcDonald not able to even get her preferred candidate on the by-election ballot. She's "yesterday's woman". 2 Obsession with an issue (united Ireland) that is way down the list of most voter's priorities. 3 Out of touch with working class voters on issues like immigration, "trans rights" etc. 4 Spokespeople who seen to be constantly shouty and angry (Doherty, Carty etc) while softer voices are missing (O'Reilly, Conway-Walsh etc) 5 Perception that the party is being run from Belfast and prone to bullying. 6 Not calling the government to account on things like excessive public spending, but if anything committing to spending even more. Anything I've missed?

@eoghancorry @AerLingus Eoghan, your location is irrelevant. The Starlink signal always comes from satellites. I don't believe they have any ground stations.

Internet speed mid Atlantic on flight to JFK New York on EI-EIN, 1500km from Ireland now, first @Aerlingus aircraft to be fitted with the new Starlink ultrafast wifi travelextra.ie/aer-lingus-fir…

@Nic21121970 Young people don't go to the pub, the effect is that lots of pubs have closed. On busy streets in Dun Laoghaire and in small towns. Nothing to do with the Govt. or immigrants.

Aww isn’t that lovely. Another little pub gone from the community thanks to those who voted for the government. Second property in Laois village gets planning approval for IPAS use leinsterexpress.ie/news/local-new…

@AontuDublin They have 11 TDs, Aontú has 2. Where you both stand when a survey is taken is irrelevant. Remember when SF were riding high in the polls and they were touting Mary Lou as a prospective Taoiseach? It's called a flash in the pan.

Much of the media swoon over the Soc Dems but strategically seldom mention Aontú. Yet there is only 2% between them.

@caulmick @RTERadio1 SF gets plenty of airtime on RTE, quit your whinging.

Sinn Féin’s efforts this week to increase the help for the 750,000 households that use Home-heating Oil described as "la-la land stuff" by Alison O'Connor on the #Brendan panel this morning. That's how you keep yourself on @RTERadio1 panels

@Polito_loco Nothing to do with which parties are in power. Drinking trends have changed markedly in the past 20 years. Young people don’t go to the pub, it’s that simple. If you disagree, please tell us what you’d do to reverse the trend.

Tourism / Hospitality is decimated in Ireland. Brittas Bay, Wicklow, considered one of the very best summer holiday spots for generations here in Ireland is no different. Yesterday, McDaniels Gastropub announced their closure. Another one bites the dust under FFG rule.

@rtenews Does the victim have to die before an 'alleged' assault becomes an actual assault? FFS, just call it an assault.

@patricej36 Norway, Switzerland and the UK are outside the EU, they all observe daylight saving time. Most of the US does as well. Go figure.

One day Ireland will be free from the treacherous EU and this government will cease to exist.

@Zero_9873 You can't win a by-election with 17%. There's only one seat so the quota will be 50% of the valid votes plus one. Look at the 2024 GE count, he gets very few transfers.

Hey @aerlingus could you please respond with an inane, stock reply about a problem I'm not having with your service.

@duzBme Probably reminds them of their last trip to New York.

Five times I’ve gotten a taxi from Dublin airport this year and five times I’ve got a different nationality taxi driver. But not one was Irish. Indian x 2, Nigerian, Albanian and a female Latvian (I kid you not) and none knew the way to Raheny. What must visitors to Ireland 🇮🇪 think? Is asking hate speech and racist? #NoHateSpeechLaws #FreeSpeech

@William01620440 @LauraHoganTV @rtenews How many people on the waiting list want to live in rural Co. Meath? Who on the waiting list for social housing could even afford to heat the place?

@LauraHoganTV @rtenews That's disgusting and disgraceful to demolish a perfectly good house and thousands on the waiting list

Personal belongings are being removed from the Murray family house at Bohermeen in Meath, which is expected to be demolished on foot of a High Court order by the end of the week @rtenews

@LauraHoganTV @rtenews Everything in that house should be sold to defray the legal costs incurred by Meath Co. Co.

@DublinAirport your website is flashing like crazy on Chrome and Firefox when I click on arrivals or departures, it's a serious strain on the eyes. The window which is supposed to show the list says 'Loading flight list' and it flashes for an age before showing the list

@MarkLTighe He needs to Google 'Streisand effect'. What does he think he will achieve by changing an entry in the Barbados coroner's records?

@MaiaDunphy If you're waiting for a bus and there's five or more Spanish students waiting, best to move to the previous or next stop. Because there's a fair chance the next Dublin bus will fail to stop for them.

The arrival of Spanish students has begun in earnest, and I'm happy to announce that every last one of them has fully completed their "Blocking The Entire Pavement" module. 👍

@NiallStanage Voting for the 2018 FIFA World Cup was corrupt from the start but England did themselves no favours by flooding the voting venue with titled folk - there was more princes, lords and sirs than you could shake a stick at.

If you’re in the media outside the UK, there’s no need to use the honorifics of the British “nobility” system. He’s Peter Mandelson. “Lord.” 🙄

@DanMulhall He knows that if he accepts deportation, he will probably never be admitted to the US again. So he has elected to stay in the ICE detention centre and is desperately playing every legal card he can. I can't see why the Irish Govt. should get involved.

Here is a link to my interview about the case of Seamus Culleton on today’s edition of Morning Ireland. It seems to me that there are two issues: his immigration status which is a matter for the US system to determine & the conditions of his detention, which our government has a right to raise with the US authorities. rte.ie/radio/radio1/c…

@IrishRail in DunLaoghaire station on a northbound Dart. Driver just made an announcement apologising for something, couldn't make out most of what he said on account of the quality of either the speaker in my carriage or his microphone.
