The fundraiser for @CMRF_Crumlin & @CRYIre in Finn's name reached €15,000 over the weekend. 3 weeks ago the little guy fought so hard to stay with us. The staff of Crumlin @CHIatCrumlin and Tallaght @CHIatTallaght hospitals were amazing.
@simonmlewis Easily solved. But it's not ideologically permissable for a diehard neoliberal like McEntee to pay "wage slaves " their value or provide for their retirement.

@White_Chapel0@simonmlewis Most retired people who are availing of pensions never paid in either because they retired before the emergency measures after the 2008 crash.
I doubt that the secretaries and caretakers would object to contributing to their pensions on the same basis of their colleagues.

My consulting fee is €2.3billion. You will save money.

It's a housing emergency. My salary is still being garnished from the 2008 financial emergency.

Dr. King defeated racist government officials & ended segregation through disciplined non-violent resistance.
Defeating Trumpism, oligarchy & authoritarianism requires that same level of discipline.
Violent protests are counterproductive and play right into Trump’s playbook.
