@GaryHynds “We absolutely need competitive pay to attract top talent to politics” - Nobody working in Politics should be incentivised by money. What they were earning prior to the hike was already too much for what they are delivering,
@PCeee63@NHRacingGuide@donegal1973@BBCNewsNI Where are nurses travelling who work within hospitals? The vast majority do not drive for work purposes. Expenses from nurses are genuine. They can’t claim for lunches unless off site whilst MLA’s claim for everything. It’s hardly comparable to a nurse who is already underpaid.
@CaraHunterMLA@SDLPyouth@SDLPlive It’s such a pity however that opposing parties clearly don’t care about the issue e.g., Belfast City Council’s Dean McCullough failing to see how much of an issue violence against women is for NI’s men - “not the problem”🙄
Intervention should start with the males in “power”!
@KJ1981ya@irish_news Can’t necessarily scoop them up without any formal evidence of wrongdoing, regardless of suspicions. Likely long gone at this rate
@DannyDonnelly1 As usual, more pressure being placed upon voluntary sector to tackle child poverty rather than government action aimed at giving extra money & resource’s to families.
Food banks should be a short term solution, rather than somewhere you do your weekly shop.
@Rma13Fiona@Sineadmcgar@NaasGAA All fair points however from a legal and professional standpoint, he hasn’t been convicted of any offences. Therefore, he is well within his right to take up employment. However, foolish of the club/county to take on the baggage.
@annie_mcginley@kevinpbreslin The language used is “I bid”, “what I can do” is so self serving. Typical. I doubt he did everything himself, or very much at all. @gordonlyons1
@CaraHunterMLA Rather than jumping on the social media bandwagon calling for change, what have you done to prompt change, other than asking token gesture ministerial questions? In your view, what type of sentence should this offence have warranted?
@CregganDerry @JohnDoyle178942 @BBCNewsNI Then what happens when released? Best to restrict what he can do within the community from the earliest opportunity.
