Munster Rugby, all rugby, cycling, all sports in general but not soccer.

When will they admit lockdown was a disastrous idea?

Grafton St used to be a haven free from this kind of behaviour.

Outside of increments and promotions (to a lot of newly created management positions) , public sector workers have had 14 negotiated pay rises since 2011. But Michael Martin and FF don't think that's enough ..

How can they find so much more money for civil servants and yet not seem able to cut tax by even a cent?

@MusgraveGroup My local Centra gets an all Indian crew dropped off by minibus in full uniform for stock takes, scanners out, doing the whole job.
Meanwhile schools are off, Irish teenagers are applying everywhere for summer/part time work and getting nowhere. Youth unemployment is running over 10% (CSO figures) while the same sector claims “labour shortages” and lobbies for more non EU visas.
Stop marketing yourselves as the “Irish community store” if you’re outsourcing to imported agency teams instead of giving local kids a start. Sort it out.

Ireland has 3 times more data centres per capita than Britain. Ireland has the highest (by far) electricity bills in Europe. You are financing the data centres that are destroying your environment AND you are paying carbon taxes for cooking your dinner & heating your home. They are robbing us blind.

@JayMcdz52850 @JulieCo64621732 Why is @SuperValuIRL lying? Irish teenagers can't get a job which they need to survive going to College! And this fecking company is looking to recruit from abroad?? Have they lost all moral values?? 🤬🤬🤬

Dublin now exhibits all the traits of the worst European cities.
“Diverse” gang fights in the streets, so common they are ignored by the locals, frequent stabbings, rows of dodgy foreign-owned shops, and Roma beggars everywhere. It is Marseille or Naples but with bad weather.

@DanielHussey2 Leinster could do with a tidy 45k seater Stadium

Has there ever been a bigger disconnect between a government and the people.

The government is now forcing their culture wars into schools.

3 June 2026 and FF justice minister Jim O'Callaghan has finally published his asylum report for the month of April 2026, and what another tale of woe it reveals!

The BACKLOG of failed asylum appeals at the International Protection Appeals Tribunal has now reached 20,469 that's up 726% in less than three years. It will NEVER be cleared unless there's an amnesty or... remigration. This figure, more than any in the report, encapsulates the chaos and incompetence at the heart of this Government - it has lost control, and the rules-based system is out the window.

There were 66 verified deportations in the month of April 2026 in keeping with the final six months under Helen McEntee in H2,2024 and down 50% from some of the monthly figures achieved in 2025. There have been 865 verified deportations in the past 12 months - charter flights and commercial flights with smaller groups. That is DOWN from 870 in the previous 12-month period. Jim's man-of-action image is just that, substance-free imagery.

Despite having the budget to hire 800 staff to process asylum applications, and Helen McEntee went from 362 in 2023 to 595 in Jan 2025 when Jim took over, since then it has stalled and there were 612 in processing roles in April 2026.

What today's report conceals is the number of judicial reviews by failed asylum seekers of decisions by the IPAT. We found out last week, there are 562 such applications at the High Court or superior PENDING and it will take decades to deal with them, or there'll be an amnesty, or there'll be remigration.

Today's report is available here.

@Independent_ie Irish Independent to ramp up articles pretending Jim O’Callaghan is tough on immigration ahead of EU presidency.

[Daniel Hussey @DanielHussey2]

Don’t like Cork surrounding referee at the end, their own fault for playing last free short.

We will never get the best people refereeing our Games if we keep allowing it.

Everyone on pitch today is an amateur so GAA should be different to other sports.

[Tony Stack @TonyStack1]

@Nick_Delehanty He has been useless so far , deportation levels are a joke.

[Tony Stack @TonyStack1]

@m_brosnan I doubt it

[Karl Brophy @KarlBrophy]

This is the most GAA thing I’ve ever seen in rugby.

Probably just as well they’re playing the final in Croker.

Don’t stop sharing this until the poor man is free and the police are made to face the consequences of their thuggery.
