@LeoVaradkar @SineadOS1 Infrastructure is way behind. Protests unfortunately have shown up our lack of public transport. Airport walks .. London has a multitude of trains and UG serving airports

@SineadOS1 Doesn't really stack up tbh. Life expectancy (proxy for health outcomes) is 7th highest in Europe. Education, we rank 1st for those who have a third-level education and significantly better than OECD average in school performance (PISA). Prices much higher but so are wages

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.

@TheN5News Dry pitch

GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAALLLLLL VIKTOR GYOKERESSSSSS

@TheN5News Better than Gyokeres

Reiss Nelson vs Bournemouth 2023

@REBELC0RK @howzatcp Lost 2/1.

@damienogfitz @howzatcp How did Arsenal get on today 😱😜

I had a few guys in the taxi 🚕 earlier on, they showed me this receipt from the Dean Hotel 🏨 in Cork. When they went to pay the bill the hotel had a service charge of 12.5% and never told them before hand. Would you pay the service fee if this happened to you.

@TheN5News Woeful

@irishracing Should be banned for 6 months. Absolute disgrace.

Toby McCain Mitchell handed 10 day ban for not pulling up Top Of The Bill irishracing.com/news/Toby-McCa…

@Arsenal Hasnt scored against a top 10 team all season. Coventry let him go

Enjoyment. Courage. Conviction.

@LauraKirk12 Gyokeres hasnt scored from play against any team in the top 10. He is not good enough for premier league. Same failing every year, no goalscorer.

Max...

@TheNotoriousMMA Paid for by your buddies in Dubai

The Black Forge Inn will be supplying food and support to the protestors in Dublin City Centre. The heroic stand of the Irish people has just begun! 🇮🇪 🙏 #OnlyWarmingUp

@IrishRacing7 Experienced commentator on itv called the horse had gone wrong as soon he he stumbled , to whip the horse after that was wrong. Put your picture on your profile if u dislike twitter that much

It's awful situation around Gold Dancer, but the gift that is twitter just keeps on giving....anyone thinking Townend rode the horse knowing it was injured, needs give their fuckin head a wobble. If he had of felt it go wrong, he'd have stopped immediately, there is zero doubt.

Some sensibility amongst all the claptrap on here 👏

@REDactionAFC Gyokeres should score tomorrow as Bournemouth aren't in the top 10

The atmosphere at a 12.30 KO is often underwhelming We cannot allow this to happen vs B’mouth. Early bird trains, planes & automobiles needed, get everyone in and bubbling Please get to your seats for 12.25, in time for ‘The Angel’, and give it the full beans Dream every Dream

@CarlyFletch Should have been pulled up and R Walsh and AP McCoy knew too

Fatally injured, ridden out to the line. Horrific from Paul Townend. Dismounted after passing the line. Despite being 15 lengths clear, should’ve pulled Gold Dancer up. Disgusting to watch. 💷 talks. Ed Chamberlain said “it’s a tough game at times” 😳 #Aintree #GrandNational

@MacThePunter @CarlyFletch Townend hit the horse after the fence and encouraged him on. Horse was doing was it was asked. Should have been pulled after fence

@CarlyFletch The horse ran to the line, many who go wrong they dismount immediately as they are clearly in pain and unridable, he kept galloping, if he jumps off and the horse is fine what do you think happens? Tragic accident nothing more, no one will be more gutted than Paul Townend

@irishracing Should he have been pulled up?

Very sad to hear the news that Gold Dancer could not be saved. Our thoughts are with all at Closutton and Gigginstown House Stud💔

@AFCFixtureNews It has to be a Sunday though ?
