The Northside of Dublin needs and deserves the MetroLink. The young workers of Swords, Donabate, Lusk, Rush etc are fuelling our economy. They can’t wait - Fintan O'Toole: Dublin 4’s version of Marie Antoinette’s ‘let them eat cake’? Let them get the bus irishtimes.com/opinion/2026/…

Outrageous statements being made by the representative of the sun bed industry on @morningireland right now, particularly re HRT. Sun beds need to be banned. They are harmful. I support @JenMurnaneOConn and her public health policy of banning sun beds in Ireland

A float in the St Patrick's Day parade in Ballinrobe, Co Mayo that featured people mimicking the rape of children and carrying a sign reading "Esptein Files" has been condemned by the Rape Crisis Centre for trivialising sexual assault.

Irish left wing loons and @pb4p were calling for Ukrainians to take to the streets to protest at their government.
Meanwhile Russian soldiers were marauding, murdering, raping and pillaging their way across Ukraine.
Never forget which side the hard left were on in this war.

It's very clear that Jim Gavin's experience of being a peacekeeper in the field gives him a far greater insight on this issue than the other two candidates #TonightVMTV
I am proud to support Jim Gavin for @fiannafailparty nomination to contest the upcoming presidential election. Jim has led with distinction all his life — from his service in the Defence Forces and on UN peacekeeping missions, to guiding Dublin football to historic success.
Beyond sport, he has shown real civic commitment, chairing a Citizens’ Assembly with fairness and respect and Chairing the North East Inner City Initiative Board. Jim’s experience, integrity, humility and vision make him the kind of leader who can bring people together& represent

Charlemagne in @TheEconomist says pronunciation of Gaeilge word ‘Taoiseach’ is ‘unfathomable’. I can’t imagine the magazine saying this about the languages of many other countries it covers…it’s fine with Irish though, they won’t complain – at Fingal, Ireland

Irish people are among the longest living in the world today: we live 83 years on average (men 81, women 85). It's astonishing progress. In 1925, the average Irish person died aged 57. We've added a whole generation to our lives. 🇮🇪👵👴

Delighted to see Ireland leading the way on education, with over 52% of adults aged 25–64 having a bachelor’s degree or higher.
Investment in education has been the key foundation stone for societal and economic development in Ireland.

Ireland is the most highly educated country in the world, according to @CBRE. We are the only nation listed in which a majority of adults aged 25–64 have a bachelor’s degree or higher. Education has transformed our country's fortunes for the better. 🇮🇪👍
