“the backdrop of these negotiations is the reduction in purchasing power … somebody on the minimum wage is effectively losing €26 a week. So we have a huge problem. And it’s going to have to be resolved” - Patricia King

Another busy evening at the soup run. 350+ hot meals served tonight. A big shoutout to Safco Fine Foods and Brass Onion Bistro for their donation. We are very grateful to all of you for your kindness and support. Help us feed the homeless so they are not forgotten…

Days before my partner Paul died of AIDS at St Vincent's Hospital in '83 he sought confession. Chaplain refused to absolve him unless he'd guarantee never contemplating having sex with another man. Paul was distraught. I was furious. Public Hospital. Public Ownership #NMHSellOut

It was a sombre evening at the soup run - people were remembering Johnny. We are still shocked by the news of his passing away. There were many new faces at the soup run which goes to show how the need keeps growing. Lots of families were asking for help with baby items too.

Pat McCann was factually incorrect to claim this morning that elective sterilisations and terminations are currently done at St Vincent's

St Vincent's do sterilisations when they are "clinically required" but "not for the exclusive purpose of sterilisation"

This is serious 🧵

Hi Everyone, I hate asking, but my three sons have a terminal illness called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and are sadly dying. I am trying my best to save their lives.
Is there anyway you could all retweet this and follow us to help with awareness and funds? Thank you.

It was a lovely warm day at the Soup. We had 4 tables set up with 370 hot meals, sandwiches, pastries, cookies, scone, fruits, veg, chocolates, drinks etc. We also had sleeping bags. People are opting to sleep out in the street, rather than hostels where they feel its unsafe.

A @businessposthq / Red C poll indicates just how much the cost of living is biting;

🔴68% say quality of life has reduced
🔴63% have little to no disposable income
🔴73% are buying cheaper food
🔴50% are using savings to pay for everyday living

Likely unsurprising to most.
