Close to 8,000 new homes completed in the first three months of 2026 - a third more than in the same period last year.
Momentum is clear. Much needed housing is being delivered around the country.
Good progress is being made, and we are committed to doing more.

They really should give information about the Irish humour to foreigners coming here 😂 this poor girl wouldn't have survived the 90s or early 00s

"People in Ireland have a weird sense of humor. They make offensive jokes about everything. That needs to change within the community."

@MichealMartinTD @GovIE @JamesBrowneTD Great more room for new people in the hotels around Ireland. No benefit to working class Irish who are outbid by Indians or the lower income Irish who have been on council list for years to see people in the country for a short time get housed in these new builds

Very significant progress being made in social housing - almost 10,000 new homes under construction and over 13,000 more in the pipeline.
Follows the 9,000 new social homes built last year – the highest annual number built on record.
We will continue to build on this momentum.

Aontú research has shown that hundreds of millions of euro of carbon tax is just going into the state coffers, not into Carbon reducing supports, as the government claims.
The government is Carbon tax gouging people in an energy crisis.

We are taking real action to reduce costs and support households and businesses.
This is a meaningful package designed to ease pressure where it matters most.

We are living through an unprecedented global energy crisis. We know the pain, the stress, and the very real financial pressure that so many across the country are feeling as a result of this. As a government, we hear you, we have acted, and we are taking further action.

Is there anyone else here, besides me, who has always supported President Donald Trump 🇺🇸 but is now seriously struggling because enough is enough?
The Pope is the Vicar of Christ on Earth, seated on the throne of Saint Peter

The best left back we've had in the modern game 💯

We can confirm Andy Robertson will bring his Reds career to an end at the conclusion of the current season. He will do so as a Liverpool legend ❤️

@ServeOnlyGod governments don't make profits, they can collect more in taxes than they spend which is a surplus but they end up spending that money the following year. On things like supports for farming, grants and so on. Maybe we should reduce the taxes and get rid of the supports too.

Those tractors didn't come cheap, the money for that didn't come from the local credit union. They're not small farmers struggling to get by.

The fuel protest is going to get very interesting. One protester says well we are not moving anywhere!"
English
@odonoghuejames Nothing to do with the exorbitant amount of extra tax on the price per litre no? Don't blame the USA and let our vultures off the hook
English
@ThomasByrneTD Faux democracy, we never voted for any of this. Listen to the people or the country will grind to a halt
English
Ireland is a democracy in which people have the right to peaceful protest. These protests have gone too far.
Critical infrastructure cannot be held to ransom.
This is a democratic country and the elected Government continues to engage with representative organisations.

No one wants to see our roads blocked.
The solution is that the minister phones the reps of this campaign and organises a meeting.
If he does that, I understand these roads will be immediately clear.
English
@SimonHarrisTD It is only the beginning the country needs to be brought to a complete standstill. We are being kept in the long finger and spoken down to by the elite political class for far too long this could be the beginning of something special
English
The blocking of the distribution of fuel is a sinister and despicable attack on our economy and our society. This is not a lawless country. The laws of the land must and will be applied without fear.

Another painful watch absolutely dire we can't hold on to the ball what is the game plan? #PSGLIV

@JP_Mc_C Not sure how a Ukrainian flag helps either but alas here we are.

@libsoftiktok Irish kids in those schools are being pulled out by their parents in placed in rural schools outside of town where there's majority Irish in the class. We are flooded with Somali Afghan Pakistani Indian and other African gimigrants 1/4 of my country is now foreign. Erin go bragh
English
@libsoftiktok This is why I send my kids to gaelscoil all teachers are fluent in Irish and the kids speak Irish all day there is primary schools in my town that have no Irish kids in classes and some that have a couple. The teachers are trying to teach kids that can barely speak English
English
This woman is complaining that teachers in Ireland are too White, accuses them of being racist, and thinks they need to be more "diverse."

A family home was demolished in Navan 2 weeks ago because it had no planning.
Now we hear the government is going to build 6 super sized IPAS centres without any planning permission at all.
This is a disgrace.
Aontú will introduce a bill to return planning to all IPAS centres.
