This is FALSE ❌

1. The Govt literally pays €30million+ to a private company, Didean Dochas, to buy houses across the midlands for asylum seekers.

This company owns the houses, rents them back to the State and routes all profits through Isle of Man.

2. Cluid Housing & other approved housing bodies pick and choose who gets which house in what area.

The idea that there is an orderly queue is a myth.

What am I missing?

To add another layer of incest, that lady who @Ben_Scallan calls out for being a state funded NGO advocating for social media censorship works for the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission.

Jean O'Mahony, wife of Ruadhán Mac Cormaic - the editor of the Irish Times and prime beneficiary of a social media clampdown - also works at the IHREC.

Both the IHREC and the Irish Times are now heavily subsidised by the Irish government and both call for X censorship. It's a small, incestuous and state funded bubble. All doing the bidding of the state for a few Euro more.

After hearing from my legal team, the Irish Times have been compelled to remove the word "misinformation" from their article in respect of me.

I don't expect a formal apology any time soon. However, at least people can see who's really guilty of "misinformation" 😀

Two things about Micheál Martin show how completely out of touch he is.

First, he thinks people would support a referendum to increase the size of Government. Astounding. They have no understanding of how badly they destroyed trust with the last referendum. They tried to delete our mothers from the Constitution. It was disgraceful. The Irish people will not trust this Government with the Constitution again, and rightly so.

Second, his answer is always bigger Government, more Ministers, more cost. Never reduce. Never reorganise. Never reallocate. If he wants another Minister, abolish one of the two Education Ministers or one of the two Finance Ministers and create the role from within.

The trial of Riad Bouchaker, the Algerian man who is accused of attempting to murder three small children outside a school on Parnell Square, Dublin, almost three years ago, is due to start this morning at the Central Criminal Court.

The audacity here is actually off the charts.

Return is a “Not-for-profit” funded by the public. They made €100m in year one.

This money stays on their balance sheet. It doesn’t go back to the State.

But €100m isn’t enough. They wanted tax exemptions too.

So using your money they hired a Fine Gael councillor to go and lobby his Fine Gael colleague who was Minister for State.

Both the councillor & Minister also paid entirely by you.

Throughout this chain of events Not a single extra euro in value was generated for the State.

No innovation,
No entrepreneurship
Just leeching & looting of the taxpayer.

Does anyone care ???

@MalachySteenson Good luck tomorrow Malachy. Hope you get it.

Government TDs say politics “is not working.”

They are the Government.

You cannot admit failure and still support the decisions causing it.

People are not protesting over communication.
They are protesting because life is unaffordable.

Ireland needs action, not statements.

Genuinely amazing contrast to how the Trump administration deploying the national guard to US cities was covered by Irish media compared to how they’re now covering the Irish govt deploying the army to deal with fuel protests. He who pays the piper calls the tune.

[DiarmaidOCon @DiarmaidOCon]

His party gave away Ireland's fishing rights in our waters. They outlawed exploration for oil & gas that we have, which led us here. They forced Ireland's youth to emigrate. They blew budget surplus' on vanity projects with a pension crisis coming..

That's national sabotage...

The EU's reparation loan to Ukraine is expected to cost Ireland €4.5bn. There has been no public discussion of this. Micheal Martin has looked into his heart and decided the interests of NATO and the Eu should come first. The poor will pay for Martin's largesse.

Using @albertdolan_’s new transparency database, we can now see that the company responsible for building the 14 steps in Mount Merrion, Actavo (formerly known as Siteserv), has received over €85 million in payments from the State.

The newly available breakdown shows that Dublin City Council is the company’s largest client, accounting for €32.5 million in spending, followed by the Dept of Education at €19.5 million.

This company does it all from roadworks, schools and even temporary accommodation.

State revenue figures are equally striking. After earning approximately €6 million in 2019, company revenues surged to €16.5 million in 2022 and €20 million in 2023, making those years particularly lucrative.

I have questions....

1. The Mount Merrion steps were front-page news in The Irish Times on Monday. Why has nobody bothered to dig into this? We had the same lack or reporting around the Bike shed & Sensori.

2. In light of this outrageous overspend, will it simply be business as usual for this company across other public contracts? How can there be any confidence the public is getting value for money. What "lessons will be learned"?

Thank you to Albert Dolan for making this information accessible.

Simon Harris, dropped out of college (Journalism and French) loved drama in school, went from school straight into politics, never worked or ran a business. He appointed himself the minister for finance while also the Tanaiste of Ireland.

Why would such an inexperienced and uneducated person want to take on an extremely important role in running Irelands finances?

More importantly why did Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael let him?

[Ewan MacKenna @EwanMacKenna]

The inevitability since Maidan nearly there.

Ukraine got blood and bankruptcy courtesy of own thieving elites.

The US got the resources courtesy of their foreign policy plan.

Russia got the east courtesy of victory and demographics.

The EU got the bill courtesy of stupidity.

Most people under-30 are now taking it for granted that they'll never be able to own a home, have a family or community. In other words they've accepted that they will never have a life. There's a deep sense of futility and hopelessness among the vast majority. I was talking to a younger guy about it today. It's an absolute catastrophe, but when you talk to older more well off people they kind of don't care. It actually gives them the ick. They'd rather talk about something more appropriate like Man United vs Liverpool or the weather. Wtf is wrong with us?

Denmark  has a population of 6 million. In 2025 from Jan to September there were only 1490 applications for asylum. Last year Denmark granted asylum in only 860 cases. 860! That needs to said again, only 860 people in Denmark in 2024 were granted asylum. 860 is a rounding error when it comes to the Republic’s numbers.
