Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig oraibh 🇮🇪☘️ With Toirleach & the Louth Disability Cycling Club for St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Dundalk Big shout out to the organisers - great event - ar fheabhas #dundalk

A great three points. Happy St Patrick's Day! ☘️☘️☘️

Government must act to reduce taxes on fuel. In the last week, they collected more than an extra €38 million in VAT due to rising fuel prices. The European Commission has called for each state to introduce lower fuel taxation supports. People need support with rising living costs right here, right now. Sinn Féin has produced legislation to scrap the planned carbon tax increase, reduce taxes on petrol, diesel and home heating oil and deliver for workers and families. Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael need to stop dithering and pass this legislation without delay. We need leadership and we need action now. They cannot keep ignoring the warnings from Irish hauliers and the growing pressure soaring fuel prices are putting on workers, families and small businesses. Government must stop this ‘wait and see’ approach and intervene now: scrap the planned carbon tax increase, reduce taxes on petrol, diesel and home heating oil during this crisis, and bring forward a cost of living package with real support for workers and families. An emergency cost of disability payment is needed also. #CostOfLivingCrisis #FuelPrices

🚨ANNOUNCEMENT! Sinn Féin will move emergency legislation to provide people with immediate relief from soaring fuel prices. It would scrap the planned carbon tax increase and reduce taxes on petrol, diesel and home heating oil. Up to 65% of what people pay at the pumps goes to the government in taxes. So, they have considerable room to help. Sinn Féin’s Bill is real action! Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael need to pass it without delay.

Incredible! The cost of home heating oil has almost doubled in the last few days and Mícheál Martin is still going ahead with Fianna Fáil Fine Gael’s Carbon Tax hikes. This will push prices up further. He needs to do his job and stop this blatant price gouging and scrap carbon tax hikes. We need real action to end the rip off and make life affordable.

Minister Higgins’ tone-deaf video on cost of disability survey will only fuel anger of people with disabilities – @ROMurchu "People with disabilities are not looking for another survey. They want respect and action. They want support in the here and now – not next year." sinnfein.ie/news/minister-…

Well done Joanna Byrne standing firm and with the people of Palestine. sinnfein.ie/news/joanna-by…

Joanna Byrne TD responds to attempts to remove her as Chairperson of Drogheda United "This unwarranted action was taken after my public statement that Ireland should not play Israel while a genocide against the Palestinian people continues." sinnfein.ie/news/joanna-by…

🛑 Stop SNA cuts! A pause to the Fianna Fáil-Fine Gael plan for widespread SNA cuts is not good enough. Micheál Martin saying “schools are well used to appealing” is insulting. Devastating for children with special education needs. Parents racked with worry. Schools left with real uncertainty. The only thing they need to hear from the Taoiseach is that this cruel plan will be completely scrapped.
