🇮🇪 €29,000 FOR A ST PATRICK’S DAY TRIP, INCLUDING A PRIVATE-POOL SUITE
At a time when ordinary households are being told to watch every euro, questions are being raised over the cost of Minister Jack Chambers’ St Patrick’s Day trip to Senegal and Nigeria.
According to figures obtained by the Irish Examiner under Freedom of Information, the four-person delegation cost the taxpayer more than €29,000.
More than €13,000 was spent on flights, while around €6,400 was spent on four nights at two hotels in Nigeria**.
But one detail is particularly eye-catching.
Chambers reportedly spent one night in a double suite with its own private pool, costing just over €300 for the night, roughly twice the price of rooms occupied by members of his entourage.
The Government sends ministers around the world every St Patrick’s Day to promote Ireland, build diplomatic relationships and encourage trade. There can be genuine value in that.
The question is whether €29,000 for a four-person delegation represents value for taxpayers’ money.
When families are struggling with housing costs, food bills and energy prices, people are entitled to scrutinise every euro spent on ministerial travel.
Do you think €29,000 was justified for this trip, or should ministers and their entourages be expected to travel more economically when taxpayers are footing the bill?

I’ve seen both Cormac Lucey and now David McWilliams warn this week that bad news is coming for the Irish economy from the US.
At this stage, I welcome it.
Irish people are not benefiting from the massive amounts of corporation tax pouring into the State.
Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil are burning through it with no thought for the future and wasting it on everyone but the Irish.
Ireland isn't improving. Immigration, housing, healthcare, social cohesion. and infrastructure are all getting worse.
I'd accept a long, hard recession now to salvage what's left of Ireland. Because if we keep going like this, Irish people risk becoming a minority in a country plagued by housing, infrastructure and sectarian and culturally incompatible tensions between the native Irish and the "new Irish", many of who are culturally incompatible.
Economies can recover in time.
Demographic destruction is different. Once a population is fundamentally transformed, you cannot simply reverse it.
On my break yesterday I took a walk towards Talbot Street.
The porthole, a major tourist attraction, completely engulfed with Roma gypsy women and children.
Earl place, the little side street to the right. Hoards of Roma gypsy men, hanging around drinking beer.
Not a care in the world. Laughing at us, while we toil to pay for these filthy scumbags.
A certain Austrian man was absolutely spot of with what he said about these 'people '.
They are a scourge on this country.
Outrage in Germany after it became public that a Syrian migrant with 3 wives, 32 children and 25 grandchildren, with 70% of the entire family having a criminal record, receives €100,000 a year in welfare.
SIPO has launched a formal inquiry into The Ditch reports that Fianna Fáil junior minister Niall Collins voted to sell local authority land that was bought by his wife.
Last year only around two percent of all complaints proceeded to the inquiry stage.

🚨 𝗖𝗥𝗔𝗭𝗬 𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗧: Kvaratskhelia was only €70M and almost every European top club decided not to buy him.
PSG signed him, won the Champions League twice with him, and now he’s among the leading contenders for the Ballon d’Or. 💫
Roma Gypsies given a new free €475,000 4 bed house in Co Meath.
A very unhappy resident sent me this picture.
They went to the trouble of saving and getting a mortgage to buy one of these properties.
We are a living in a failed state.

Muslim man Khalid Ahmed, 23, who holds an Irish passport & was born in Amsterdam, pleaded guilty at the Old Bailey in London to possessing 10 firearms & ammunition ☪️
On March 26, Ahmed was stopped by counter-terrorism police after arriving in the UK from Calais, France.
There was material suggesting Ahmed had a "terrorist mindset" ☪️
Mr Khalif came to Ireland in February 2024 with no travel documents with just a phone and Swedish ID.
You have the dregs in the Dàil to thank for this.
Mary never open her mouth McDonald will you open your trap today in relation to this or will you spend your day talking about Andy the plank Burnham.

Nothing is too good for these ruthless, untalented Dail looters of the taxpayer. This guy gets paid more than even the British Prime Minister ffs.
They are way out of control and corrupt as hell. https://t.co/XnphDn2pU1
🚨 He’s 20 years old.
And he’s already living inside a security bubble because the world decided his last name is a target.
The NY Post reports Barron Trump is dealing with a wave of threats — including from Iran — while Secret Service stays locked in.
He also lived through Charlie Kirk’s assassination. He was close to Charlie.
He watched what political violence actually looks like.
This kid didn’t run for office.
He just wanted a life.
Protect him. Period. 🙏🏻
The UK is doomed.
