Labour ties itself up in knots once more amid attempts to explain itself... as it now emerges leader Ivana Bacik repeated false story about Galway Mayor's arrival in Ireland after her husband's murder https://t.co/bZNkPvQlsZ
Today is first day of Ireland’s EU Presidency
Its going to cost the Irish taxpayer over €300m.
Thats 3x the amount Cyprus just spent, €95m
and 4x what Denmark spent, €80m.
Most of the money is going to:
Gardaí & security €125m
Dept of Foreign Affairs €65m
OPW will get €51m.
But what are they spending it on???
This E-Tender shows €131,000 will be spent on woollen scarf mementos for the 4,500 EU delegates.
6 months of waste & pageantry lie ahead.
New figures released to Aontú TD Paul Lawless show that the ESB reported after tax profits of €2.9 Billion between 2022 and 2025.
It comes as Electric Ireland is set to increase electricity prices by 8% tomorrow.

NIAMH UÍ BHRIAIN: The real reason why Gript is a "threat" is because we are doing what a media outlet is actually meant to do: ask the hard questions, push back against the establishment line, challenge the consensus.

Why are @rtenews not held accountable for misinformation.
The best available global research suggests that around 8 to 10 times more people die from cold-related causes than heat-related causes in a typical year. A study published in The Lancet, which analysed more than 74 million deaths across multiple countries, estimated that about 7.3% of deaths were associated with non-optimal cold temperatures.
About 0.4% of deaths were associated with non-optimal hot temperatures.
RTE are constantly catastrophising the warm weather and summer days.
More scaremongering. If fossil fuels are increasing the temperature in Ireland, as Trump would say ‘Drill baby drill’ .
These people seem to forget it was warmer in Ireland and the UK during the medieval period or maybe they just ignore that.
Consider the implication of this question: as an 18 year old, if you refuse to see patriarchy in the world, you may be marked down. Not having the correct political views may meaningfully harm your career and future.
This actually quite disturbing. They answered the same question from another journalist. They are just being rude, insulting and obnoxious to @Ben_Scallan . They may not agree with @griptmedia but they are still a credible news outlet.
Should I refuse to have the left on my radio show?
People Before Profit refuse to answer a Gript question about the Triple Lock, refusing to speak to @Ben_Scallan and dismissing the question through their press officer.
An Irish Times journalist then repeats Gript's question, which Paul Murphy immediately answers.
350 people claimed asylum in Ireland last week, official figures show – the highest number of weekly arrivals since September 2024.
Almost two-thirds were single males, and more than a third came from Somalia.

“What do you attribute that to?”: @Ben_Scallan asks Energy Minister Darragh O’Brien how he explains the fact that Ireland has the highest energy prices in the EU after over a decade of investing in renewables.
🚨Lies. Disinformation. Censorship. That was Fauci's playbook.
On her final day as DNI, @TulsiGabbard is executing POTUS’ priorities and taking on the Deep State, delivering on @HawleyMO’s COVID Origins Act of 2023 and exposing the truth the American people were denied under the previous administration.
NIAMH UÍ BHRIAIN: Back in 2010, the Council found that 60% of social housing was being allocated to foreign nationals. So why would Simon Harris oppose Kerry Cllrs who want data on the nationalities of those in receipt of social housing? Why the secrecy?

Dear @elonmusk
First of all the Irish government tried to blame you for an attempted beheading here in Ireland and not the deranged lunatic that actually did it a few weeks back
Next, they are about to ban your platform @x because they can’t control social media as it threatens their narratives that they pay the main stream media to push when really it’s just a way for them to push through a digital ID system
And now, guess what, they think you shouldn’t exist!!!
Meet @RuthCoppingerSP and after watching this clip I won’t blame you for being as bedazzled as most of us here in Ireland are as to how she got elected either
Women’s Coalition on Immigration meets at Dáil to discuss the impacts of the EU Migration pact, North-South border control, and the collection of ethnicity data regarding violent and sexual crimes.
