I posted this a minute ago and I tagged Dara Calleary and it disappeared. Imagine!! PUBLIC NOTICE AND NOTICE OF CONCERN Re: Proposed Expansion of the Public Services Card To: Dara Calleary, Minister for Social Protection And to all members of the Government of Ireland Take notice that the reported intention to expand the legal uses of the Public Services Card raises serious and lawful concerns regarding constitutional rights, data protection, and the limits of State authority. The People of Ireland are the source of all powers of government, as clearly affirmed under Bunreacht na hÉireann. Any attempt to extend the scope of identification systems that collect, store, or process personal and biometric data must be strictly necessary, proportionate, and grounded in law that fully respects fundamental rights. The Public Services Card has already been the subject of significant scrutiny, including findings by the Data Protection Commission which identified unlawful processing in aspects of its use. Against that backdrop, any expansion of its function must meet a far higher threshold of justification than has been demonstrated to date. The following concerns are formally raised: Right to Privacy and Data Protection The expansion of the card risks further intrusion into personal data without clear necessity. Mass identification systems must not become tools of routine surveillance or administrative control beyond their original limited purpose. Function Creep The gradual expansion of a system beyond its original intent is a recognised risk in data governance. What begins as optional or limited can become de facto mandatory through policy and practice, undermining consent. Proportionality and Necessity There has been no clear evidence presented to the public that such expansion is necessary or proportionate to a legitimate aim, as required under both Irish constitutional law and EU data protection standards. Informed Consent Any system that effectively coerces participation by linking access to essential services raises serious questions about whether consent can ever be considered freely given. Constitutional Limits on State Power The State does not possess unlimited authority over the identity, data, or movement of the people. Any measure that centralises identity control must be carefully scrutinised against Articles 1, 6, and 40 of the Constitution. Accordingly, the following is demanded: Full public disclosure of the scope, purpose, and legal basis of the proposed expansion An independent constitutional and data protection review prior to any legislative action A guarantee that no essential public service will be made contingent upon mandatory participation in expanded identity systems Transparent parliamentary debate with meaningful public consultation Failure to address these concerns will be understood as a disregard for constitutional limits and the rights of the people. This notice is issued in the public interest to ensure that any development of State systems remains lawful, proportionate, and accountable. The People of Ireland are not subjects of administrative systems. Government exists to serve, not to condition or control access to identity and rights.

A very happy looking Ukrainian "Refugee" in Ireland. Travels home several times a year, driving a Tesla, free healthcare. Free accommodation, cash and residency. All paid for by the Irish taxpayer. How does a "Refugee" go "Home" several times a year? Its one giant scam.

Breaking! You won’t see this on RTE!! Indian police seized over 100,000 fake degrees from 22 universities, shedding light on the alarming scope of the issue. Indian media reported that the authorities arrested 11 individuals involved in producing counterfeit degrees, which were being used to secure jobs in fields like medicine, nursing, and engineering. How many are working in Ireland with fake documents.

The entire wealth of Ireland is being redistributed by this corrupt #Lowry gov, looting the citizen taxpayer for their rich cronies while Irish kids have to emigrate, cannot afford a home here. Number of super-rich people in Ireland doubles in five years independent.ie/irish-news/num…

@RMXnews I am surprised it has taken this long. There should be no foreign criminals in Denmark's prison system, because it's costing millions and punishing the honest, hard-working taxpayer. These men should be deported - but, first, they should labour on farms to raise their fare out.

🇩🇰🔴Denmark is now forging ahead with deportations with a new law. The left-wing Social Democrat Mette Frederiksen celebrated the move, stating: "They rape girls and women. They are involved in gang crime and drug offenses. Unfortunately, we have not yet been able to deport them. This is primarily due to the interpretation of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR)." Now, this is set to change. She says Denmark is not waiting for the ECHR anymore. All migrants who have been sentenced to one year or more in prison must return to their home country automatically. There will be no case review.

After they voted to lift the rents across Dublin City for struggling council tenants. Laughing At Us. Councillors and officials stay in €600-a-night luxury French hotel with private beach -@kenfoxe Dublin City Council spent almost €600 per night on accommodation at a luxury hotel with a private beach in the south of France. The council recorded a bill of nearly €11,400 at the four-star Royal Antibes hotel for an official trip by officials and councillors in March. Business class flights to California were also booked for Lord Mayor Ray McAdam and the council’s chief executive Richard Shakespeare. Mr McAdam’s flight cost almost €5,900 while Mr Shakespeare’s travel cost €4,185. The remaining members of the party travelled in economy class, with the cost of their tickets coming to around €1,000 each. #HowIrelandWorks #DCC #PublicMoney #RichardShakespeare #RayMcAdam #FineGael independent.ie/irish-news/cou…

What is going on in Ireland? On Thursday, a Nigerian man was arrested for using AI documents to fraudulently obtain 145 credit cards on which he ranked up spending of €804,000. He is a father of 7 with “no fixed abode”. And has been flying into Ireland each week to claim Jobseeker’s Allowance. Even worse: the man has been given legal aid to pay for lawyers to defend him in court.

Today my brother teacher @EnochBurke went before a disciplinary appeal panel. He was suspended from his job and jailed after refusing to accept transgenderism. What took place today was shocking. ➡️ By law the panel is to be an “informal hearing”. ➡️ When he arrived he was confronted by a top Employment Barrister as well as a Solicitor from a major Dublin law firm. ➡️The lawyers were acting for the school. ➡️ The presence of lawyers at such an appeal is contrary to law and to Department of Education procedures for dealing with appeals. ➡️ Enoch objected to the presence of these lawyers. ➡️ The Chair of the Disciplinary Appeals Panel, Claire Callanan said to Mr Burke: “We may be wrong and you may be right but we are going ahead nonetheless.” ➡️ When Enoch continued to object, he was removed by prison guards. ➡️ When members of his family who were present objected, they were removed by police. ➡️ Enoch Burke was taken back in a prison van to Castlerea prison. This is an utterly appalling and unbelievable travesty of justice.

BREAKING: Shocking scenes as Enoch Burke denied justice and forced out of Appeal Hearing by prison officers Enoch Burke’s mother Martina Burke and brother Dr Isaac Burke were also removed by police. At the start of the Disciplinary Appeal Panel hearing, which is by law an “informal” hearing, Enoch Burke objected to the presence of a top Employment Barrister as well as a Solicitor from a major Dublin law firm. Despite Enoch Burke’s repeated objections, the Chair of the Disciplinary Appeals Panel, Claire Callanan said to Mr Burke: “We may be wrong and you may be right but we are going ahead nonetheless.” Barrister Barra Faughnan BL and Solicitor Fiona Sheil of Mason Hayes & Curran Solicitors were acting for Wilson’s Hospital School at the hearing in Athlone today. The presence of lawyers at such an appeal is contrary to settled law and Department of Education procedures for dealing with appeals. Enoch Burke has now spent over 650 days behind bars after refusing to use they/them pronouns for a student. These are the third Disciplinary Appeal Panel proceedings in relation to Enoch Burke that have ended in shambles.
