@NewstalkFM Funny, the price of the baril goes up and it is reflected at the pump 20mns later!

It could be over a week before the cut in excise duty is reflected in the price people pay at the pump, an energy expert has warned. newstalk.com/news/fuel-pric…

@rtenews Housing Czar 🤣🤣🤣

The Government's new housing czar has said he hopes his office can contribute to the delivery of tens of thousands of homes by 2030 rte.ie/news/politics/…

@rtenews The reality is that we are still using stock from before the war....

Fuel prices on forecourts have started to drop after the Government agreed to cut taxes on both diesel and petrol rte.ie/news/ireland/2…

@caulmick I can't listen to any of them!! It's always the same speech

If there was an election due, they wouldn't dare insult people like this. The #FFG Government thinks so little of the public, that they send of the former Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien, who lied about housing delivery during the election to defend their stingy emergency measures package announced today. #CostofLivingCrisis #Dáil #FuelPrices ⛽️🛢 #HomeHeating

@GovIE Cut the non sense carbon tax and reduce exil duty

@NewstalkFM And those without an allowance will pay double. I have bought 500 litres of heating oil for €525 just when war started, today it is at €900

People on the fuel allowance will have their payments doubled, as the Government attempts to cut the cost of living. newstalk.com/news/excise-du…

@FitzellMarcus @ThomasByrneTD This is on the top of mercosur and NZ trade deal, Europe can produce beef instead of getting it from the other side of the world

@ofrie26 @ThomasByrneTD Tiny amounts of beef. EU beef production in 2024 was 6.6 million tonnes. This EU/Oz deal calls for 30,000 tonnes over a 10 year period. Plus, over half that MUST be grass fed.

The EU and Australia have agreed a free trade deal! 🇪🇺🇮🇪🤝🇦🇺 As a result of this deal, EU exports are expected to grow by up to 33% over the next decade! This is great news for jobs, investment and economic growth in Ireland and the European Union!

@Toibin1 What confidence?

The CSO is going to reduce confidence in their work with this.

@NewstalkFM What a joke, the top suppliers will increase by more before the end of the week

Excise duty on diesel is due to be cut by 20 cents, while petrol will be cut by 15 cents until the end of May⛽ 📃The coalition leaders have agreed on the excise measures, and they will be officially brought to Cabinet by Tánaiste and Finance Minister Simon Harris today. 🪙The package, aiming to help people with the rising cost of fuel, is expected to cost €235m, which includes support for hauliers and bus operators, carers, people with disabilities and pensioners. 📻Tune in for more.

@MichealLehane Joke! They are still making more than before in taxes

Government leaders agree on a 20 cent cut in excise duty on diesel and a 15 cent cut on petrol until the end of May. Tanaiste Simon Harris has also recommended a diesel rebate scheme for hauliers and bus operators, which will be backdated.

@Independent_ie The diesel was at 1.40 5 years ago, it is at 2.30 now and they are reducing the 60% taxes by 20 cents. What a joke!!

@OHanlonEilis Supermen doesn't tax people to poverty!

@Nick_Delehanty I sense an attempt for them to repeat the "covid style" lockdowns they loved so much at the time.

ENORMOUS DISRUPTION lies ahead Irish Govt is currently debating between a 15c or 25c reduction on excise fuel tax. This feels a lot like like picking up pennies in front of a steam roller. Their entire budget could go up in the air. Let me explain: During Covid: • Oil demand fell by ~20million barrels/day • Gas demand dipped only slightly by 3% Today: • Oil supply at risk of ~20million barrels/day • LNG disruption ~20% This means flights and diesel will get so expensive that demand is forced down mimicking COVID-era restrictions but without the mandatory lockdowns. The true shock won't hit for another few weeks as reserves are released and last remaining supply ships reach their ports. Maybe something will happen to prove this wrong... but right now its very difficult to see how.

@Independent_ie Is this linked to the excess death no one wants to investigate?
