@DuncanSmithTD is my friend and I’m proud to call him such. I’m proud of how over the past five years he’s stood up and spoken out for what is right. If you live in Fingal East, give your Number 1 vote to Duncan Smith. He will not let you down. #GE2024

We are calling for the restoration of supplementary pension for fast accrual pensions.

@labour @SocDems have given explicit commitments

@sinnfeinireland gave a commitment to examine it

Nothing from FF, FG, Green, PBP.

@DarraghOBrienTD ?

Survey finds 73% of uniformed services who joined after 2013 considering 'seeking a new job'

This is a huge retention issue across more than 50% of @defenceforces, ⁦@gardainfo⁩, ⁦@DubFireBrigade⁩ and ⁦@IrishPrisons⁩ members. 1/2 https://t.co/2tGKEfjnUY

One of my #GE24 takeaways is the amount of people not answering the door.

People are busy, I get that and the political system has let plenty of people down. We need to be better.

In the final stretch we will work to make sure more people open the door to change you can trust.

Will @DubCityCouncil commit to a new recruitment competition next year?

@theflophousepod @ElliottKalan Where can listeners send their suggestions for cinema meat that didn’t make the (ahem) cut?

[Geoff McEvoy @McEvoyGeoff]

Hmm… maybe entrusting all of our most important data and services to a handful of giant corporations wasn’t a great idea. 🤔

Lost in the noise of #LE24 is Labour winning 7 seats on Fingal County Council, marking their best result since 2009. The party has tied with Fine Gael and independents, who also got 7 candidates elected.

@KharloKong Don’t know what you mean. That’s the normal speolling.

Nothing like starting the day jealous of a piece of public art.

[Geoff McEvoy @McEvoyGeoff]

After ten plus years listening to @theflophousepod while walking/ ironing/ doing dishes etc how lovely it was to just sit and listen. I suppose I didn’t have to go to a live show to do that, but you get the point. @dankmccoy @flophousecat @ElliottKalan

An average work day for us is someone else’s worst nightmare.

Working past 55 might be an option for some, but it won’t be for everyone.

We want Government to #SecureOurFuture make sure there’s a fair pension for all in uniformed services.

The grim reality is 83% of SIPTU members surveyed working in public transport feel abuse and anti‐social behaviour is getting worse and is a live issue for them at work.
