@Rubberbandits how useful is the Seanad? What's her thoughts on previous Gov commitments to reform it?

[Seán McCárthaigh @seanmccarthaigh]

Nice to see my story on the latest clamping figures appear in a few publications today. Less nice is seeing the story replicated by @rte and @JOEdotie without any attribution (let alone payment) Freelancing ain't easy folks - don't make it more difficult

@davegibney One of the lads put this up in the WhatsApp group and this line was my first reaction. Tragic.

News subscriptions I pay:
@irishtimes
@nytimes
@DublinInquirer
@washingtonpost
@NewYorker
How about the govt allow people to claim news subs against tax? A neat way to support good journalism

Thousands of kids have no school bus spot as Govt says it can't afford it. If we taxed Facebook for data they mine from kids on Insta, we could do it. FB has a 20yr lease here, they won't leave if we tax them a tiny bit! The steam off their $44bn cash pile would do @TodaySOR

@boucherhayes Good man Philip. Your doing great work altogether. One of Ireland's finest journalists

What does Community Media say about hate speech? It says no to it, and yes to #respectwords and ethical journalism. Listen back to the series and read about the project here: https://t.co/7JP8VhyVfv

@Trickstersworld @Deliveroo_IE If only we had politicians the calibre of Edmund Blackadder in Leinster House

[Morgan O Reilly @Morgan_OReilly]

@Trickstersworld @Deliveroo_IE Sounds like cunning plan for Deliveroo to pay less tax!

Modernise here means formalise precarious employment. A @Deliveroo_IE courier is not the CEO of MyBike Enterprise.

In 1905, a royal decree was issued to Donald Trump’s grandfather ordering him to leave Bavaria and never come back after he failed to do military service.

IRES REIT, the biggest landlord in Ireland, this morning reported a 17.6% increase in net rental income to €22.7 million and an increase in EPRA earnings of 17.7% to €15.3 million. How's the housing crisis for you?

Ireland's under-20 basketball team beat Croatia last night to make the Euro semi-final and @enya_89 pulled off one of the cheekiest tricks of the year 👏🔥🔥

@DubMatchTracker If you hear of anyone with 2 (lower tier preferably) stand tickets looking for 2 Hill will you send them my way?! Older gent that can't stand for too long looking to swap his 2 x Hill tickets for stand tickets!
