#DepositScam

@FineGael politicians just can't help themselves.

Almost €122 million of your money has now been accumulated by these Fucker's & this Fucker lobbied the Minister responsible 2 exempt these fuckers from paying VAT on your fucking Money

Smelly, Virus ridden Scam

[Nick Delehanty 🇮🇪 @Nick_Delehanty]

I hadn’t realised this.

Re-Turn is making bin charges more expensive.

Bin companies are losing €15m in revenue from aluminium cans and PET bottles. The cans are worth €800 - €1400 a tonne & bottles €500.

So we are paying twice!
Deposit charge + higher bin charge.

I think we need to start a Boycott.

[NewstalkFM @NewstalkFM]

🚮 Dublin City Council has said it now spends €500,000 on cleaning up after people who rummage through the bins, strewing waste on the pavement, searching for bottles and cans.

❓Should unclaimed cash from the DRS be spent on street cleaning?

Re-Turn:

Bin raiding is now a primary source of litter across Dublin, costing taxpayers an extra €500k+.

Medical experts have called for the introduction of “infection-control measures” because bottles are toxic.

Shops are being charged 2.2c per container. This fee is set to rise.

Meanwhile ReTurn sits on €100m cash.

5 key Management paid €1.1million.
12 Non-Executive directors share €600k

PR Budge: €4.6million
Operation Support: €1.4million
Office & Admin: €1.8million
IT costs: €2.8million

What is “operation support”??

On top of all this the board decided they needed to start a lobbying campaign to get VAT tax exemptions.

So they hired a Fine Gael councillor to lobby Fine Gael Ministers.

Take a minute to think about all of this.

This is quintessential Ireland 2026.

We are living through a lost decade of abundant wealth and surplus.

No new roads.
No public transport.
No schools, teachers, houses

Instead we get ReTurn.

We get ReThink, IHREC, IPAS, SEIC, Coimisiún na Meán & hundreds of NGOs

None of these entities are innovating or creating real productive employment.

American capitalism is fuelling Irish socialism.

[Nick Delehanty 🇮🇪 @Nick_Delehanty]

The audacity here is actually off the charts.

Return is a “Not-for-profit” funded by the public. They made €100m in year one.

This money stays on their balance sheet. It doesn’t go back to the State.

But €100m isn’t enough. They wanted tax exemptions too.

So using your money they hired a Fine Gael councillor to go and lobby his Fine Gael colleague who was Minister for State.

Both the councillor & Minister also paid entirely by you.

Throughout this chain of events Not a single extra euro in value was generated for the State.

No innovation,
No entrepreneurship
Just leeching & looting of the taxpayer.

Does anyone care ???

Things going from bad to worse at infamous Re-turn scheme.

A sitting FG councillor has been hired by Re-turn to lobby the FG Minister responsible for the Scheme.

This is a shocking conflict of interests. FG on both sides of the equation.

Electric Ireland is making super normal profits on behalf of the government.

Its now raising the price of electricity and gas on families who cannot afford to pay.

Its a semi state, who operate on the policy of this government.

The shameful politicians who voted against this will be on the public record. Share their names and photos and remember them when they need votes. They are complicit in aiding a genocidal regime. That’s what they’ll be remembered for.

On the Six One News Minister McEntee spoke about being horrified at the treatment of Irish citizens and called for sanctions on Israel.
Two hours later she voted against sanctions on Israel.
Enough said.
