Incredibly sad that the memory of D/Garda Colm Horkan, murdered on duty 6 years ago is now associated with this controversy…it must be very difficult for his family who deserve answers …May we always remember those brave Gardai gone before us & who died in service to this State
The family of Detective Colm Horkan who was shot dead in the line of duty in Castlerea, Co Roscommon six years ago have called for a public inquiry

Remembering today @gardainfo Garda Tony Golden who was murdered on duty on this day in 2015 while attending a domestic incident in Omeath, Co. Louth. May we always remember those brave Gardai gone before us and who made the ultimate sacrifice & died in the service to this State.
there is no doubt that @DIYSOSIRELAND is a fantastic programme …huge credit to all those in the @CIF_Ireland who volunteer to finish the house and to @bazashmawy whose empathy and fun makes him a fantastic host... all good wishes to Raymona and Odhran for their future
Absolutely shocking news that an elected representative @MHealyRae is hospitalised after being assaulted in Dublin this afternoon…irrespective of any political views this type of behaviour is unacceptable in a democratic society…good wishes to him for a speedy recovery
Independent TD Michael Healy-Rae is recovering in hospital after he was assaulted in Dublin this afternoon

As @gardainfo begins one of its biggest policing & security operations that the State has seen we hope all those Gardaí & @IRLDeptDefence & @defenceforces working for the next few days and nights will be safe and the operation will pass peacefully
Gardaí said 'significant policing and security operation' is under way in Co Clare for US President Donald Trump's visit to Doonbeg for the Amgen Irish Open rte.ie/b/1591175
Gardaí spending their time peering at NCT disks is one symptom of a wider problem

Very sad news to hear that @gardainfo Sgt Brendan Breen in Waterford has passed away…condolences to his family, friends and colleagues…many in the Organisation would have known Brendan well and served with him and enjoyed his company along the way, May he Rest In Eternal Peace
May he rest in peace

A piece proposing that @gardainfo and @OCallaghanJim consider a voluntary re-joiner scheme for the Garda Organisation similar to models successfully used in UK police forces…worthy of exploration and no doubt there will be as many interested as disinterested in it

A Garda Car was rammed head on by a stolen car driving on the wrong side of the road in the early hours of this morning in County Cork…clearly this type of crime goes on despite recent events..Well done to @gardainfo members for the arrests carried out in this incident

Interesting to see that electronic tagging of some offenders will begin this year after @OCallaghanJim signed a contract for its use…prison overcrowding seems to be the catalyst for it’s introduction
Electronic tagging of some offenders will begin by the end of this year.
Justice Minister Jim O'Callaghan has signed a contract that allows for the implementation of electronic monitoring for specific categories of offenders jrnl.ie/7140304
Condolences to all in @ClevelandPolFed & @CLEpolice on the death of two of their colleagues killed in the line of duty when a car which drove the wrong way down the A66 collided with their police car which was driving in the right direction at the time of the incident.

And so they should appear before the @OireachtasNews Committee…the EU Digital Services Act allows these social media companies to operate in the EU including Ireland…as I said previously much more is needed from @CNaM_ie who have a regulatory responsibility here!
Social media giant TikTok has been invited to appear before an Oireachtas media committee meeting as soon as possible to address growing concerns over videos which "glorify illegal activity" on the platform rte.ie/news/2026/0819/158850…
A chat on @rte “I think urgent response from Government is needed so that the public,who do obey the rule of law,can have confidence that if they're just driving up the motorway to go on a holiday that their whole family lives won't be changed forever,"she said on @drivetimerte
New offence of wrong-way driving to be considered and gardaí to receive pursuit training this year, minister says
