🇪🇺“Driving Europe forward”
Taoiseach Micheál Martin discussed investment for a vibrant European economy and quality jobs with other European leaders and social partners at the Tripartite Social Summit in Brussels this afternoon.
What a legend, Cillian . One of Mayo’s greatest ever players and a huge part of so many special days for Ballintubber and Mayo.
You led by example, always put the team first and never shirked responsibility. When Mayo needed someone to step up, you were always there.
A brilliant teammate, a fierce competitor and a great friend. It was a privilege to play alongside you.
Thanks for the memories, Cillian. Enjoy the next chapter.💚❤️
This Budget is about helping people who work hard to get ahead, not just get by.
We want people to feel the benefit of hard work in their own pay packet by rewarding hard work and cutting the costs of everyday life, childcare, and energy.
A strong Budget 2027 for a cleaner, more sustainable Ireland. 🌱
