RTE is funded from YOUR pocket to push the State's narrative, I am the only one not afraid to sit in front of them and call them out.

I could talk about the most shocking demographic change statistics all day long, but when I think about what is happening to Europe, I don’t think about numbers; I think about the fate of our people.
I think about Lisa († 17), Théo († 18), Jet († 17), Alex († 14), and all the other children who were betrayed by their governments, stabbed by immigrants, and then stabbed in the back again by our legal systems that let their murderers get away with it.
🚨BREAKING: The new Hungarian PM announces that from June 1st, he will END all non-European migrant work permits
"Their arrival will be reduced to zero. We want to work on returning ethnic Hungarians from Western Europe." 🇭🇺
Wow. This is powerful 👏
Time now for an Election
You sent the Dáil home for 20 days while people were struggling.
@MaryLouMcDonald condems the arrogance and lack of empathy from the Government towards the people of the country.
You threatened people - including threatening to send in the army.

Co leader of the Nationwide Farmer & Haulier protest Christopher Duffy has a message for the government of Ireland, after they have claimed the protests and blockades are over.
This has been sent to me if you are a injured party and pepper sprayed or pinned up against a fence by a Guard it seems you have a claim, Please listen to this video and seek legal advice, Also contact SIPO - Standards in Public Office Commission, Each one of these people need to be held Criminally and civilly culpable.
The protests in Ireland are not about just fuel! They are about the distance between Ireland on this graph and every other modern and developed economy. Ireland is second wealthiest but gets waaaaay less than any other country for that wealth. By a golden mile.
That visual gap in this graph? That’s what people are protesting. It’s a lack of infrastructure and the everyday enshittification of services, the economy, and the additional difficulty of trying to live, relative to peers in any other country. It also highlights why people don’t get uniformly listened to! - because there is no government architecture to engage meaningfully across this huge gap.
That gap is a three hour drive to work in traffic, a 14 month wait for an MRI, buses that don’t arrive, trains that don’t exist, schools that have no places for your kids, houses that are unaffordable, pubs that close before midnight, €12 sandwiches, expensive fuel.
People feel this gap, even if they can’t explain it precisely. And that builds into resentment, and ultimately protest. Fuel just happened to be the next thing that could be pointed to, today.
