Sad to see him go one of the most accessible politicians in ireland always remember him emailing me back personally ... meant a lot. I think the electorate made a mistake.
Thomas is an absolute gent to deal with and an incredible advocate for the people impacted in the Brandon case. Your voice will be missed in the Dáil Thomas.
Couldn’t be more in awe of my Dad @ThomasPringleTD whose 25 years of a political career is one of sincere decency & a massive personal belief in better for all. Donegal’s lost a brilliant progressive voice but his legacy of decency, respect & sheer integrity is undeniable. #GE24
Thomas was really one of the very good ones.
He was always on the right side - with the oppressed, the powerless and people - against the powerful.
He worked hard for the people he represented without any arrogance or ego.
A thoroughly decent man. He'll be missed in the Dáil.
@RTEDonegal HISTORY is going to be made in Donegal as it is almost now certain that the Fine Gael party will not elect a TD to the Dáil for the first time since the 1930s.
They have lost the seat won by Joe McHugh in 2020.

My thoughts are with Nikita Hand. Her courage in pursuing justice demonstrates remarkable strength. I hope she can now begin to heal.
I believe it’s appropriate to examine our justice system’s processes to ensure they best serve all members of our society
@wereontheditch It proves it is only about limiting the cost to the state not remediating homes. This is a problem the state caused by removing regulation on the construction industry, the state, us should now pay and make sure it doesn’t happen again
The attorney general suggested measures to reduce the number of applicants to the government's mica scheme, limit the state’s financial exposure and help ensure claims were kept as low as possible.
He said it would 'lead to significant abuses'.

You won’t get this information from Maria Walsh, Nina Carberry or Regina Doherty, You won’t hear from these 3 for the next 5 years, A small consolation I suppose.
The Palestinian flag will be flown in Leinster House next Tuesday, the day in which Ireland formally recognises the State of Palestine. The decision to fly the flag was confirmed by the Ceann Comhairle Seán O Fearghail following a question from TD Thomas Pringle.
Wrote in today’s Donegal Democrat about how Ireland isn’t full, how the future can only be found in our collective humanity and in all of us fighting for better for everyone. Everything is shit and scary but when fear wins what’s left of us? #RefugeesWelcome
Our motion has passed unopposed.The Seanad has called for the Occupied Territories Bill and the Illegal Israeli Settlements Bill to be passed,for an arms embargo on Israel and for an immediate suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement 🇵🇸

Donegal’s fishing communities, especially Killybegs, have been let down by Govts for too long! How long must we watch communities suffer before taking action?
It’s time to stand up for fair treatment, sustainable futures and unite around our fishermen.

Ireland's fishing industry is facing a grave threat. Iceland is seeking access to our valuable fish stocks without compensation. A gross injustice and it must be stopped.
The EU must not negotiate a deal that benefits Iceland at Ireland's expense!
