The plane that transported slapper detonators, used in bombs to kill thousands of Gazans, through Irish airspace on 18 February – covered in this morning’s Ditch report – again flew through Irish airspace yesterday on its journey from Tel Aviv (via Liège Airport) to New York
The Ditch can reveal that in April this year the European Investment Bank, the EU’s lending arm, signed off on a €4.5 million loan for Israel’s Sorek water plant.
Israel has been systematically ‘weaponising water’ supply to Gaza, according to an Oxfam report released today.
Hey @reformparty_uk are you ok with your supporters doing this?
@TonyTonyTx is using photos of dead pensioners to try and drum up support for you.
This is a vile tactic.

@talktoBOI Hello, I’m having issues with using my card, where online transactions and transfers are being rejected. I am currently abroad. Could you please help?
This is the equivalent of going to a restaurant, eating a meal and then being given a bill that includes the costs of the plate, cutlery, table and chair.
The assumptions in this report are nonsensical.
The real figure's less than €3bn.
Fianna Fáil senator Lisa Chambers – who spoke on RTÉ radio today about her no-no votes in the referenda and how she didn’t take part in the campaigns for either proposal – pictured just more than two weeks ago canvassing for yes-yes.
It is clear that much of the national burden has been heaped on the western side of our country for decades.
Areas already decimated by social issues are seeing unfair treatment.
Personally, I am in favour of refugees - but there needs to be a more equal distribution across the country.
Look at the discrepancy between Kerry and Dún Laoghaire (or Kildare).
Despite having a larger population, these “elite” areas are not sharing the responsibility.
A MotorCheck report shows that in 2022 the Taoiseach’s Garda car (Lexus) covered ~65k km. In 2021 it was ~52k km.
Niall Collins claimed €23k for 73,000km in 2022. We’re expected to believe that his ministerial duties involved more driving than a Cork-based Taoiseach.
In Ireland there’s 995km of motorways, 4,314km of national roads & 13,120km of secondary/regional roads. In one year Niall Collins claimed to drive the equivalent of every kilometre of every one of those roads FOUR times. Or more than twice what a full time taxi driver covers💰
