@roy_kinsella @HMcEntee this is on YOUR watch, get it fucking sorted.

[Conor Hogarty @ConorHogarty]

@roy_kinsella This is unacceptable and demonstrates a complete lack of respect for the @defenceforces its members and previous members.
Minister @HMcEntee
and the @IRLDeptDefence
Should impress upon @DubCityCouncil
how inappropriate and offensive the situation is.

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@Toibin1 Nonsense

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@DF_Sgt_Major @DubCityCouncil @TasteDublin @HMcEntee what do you have to say? This is a disgrace.

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@chrisandrews64 @FAIreland Any views on the Qatar match?

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@JohnJCarvill @MichealMartinTD @rtenews Do you have homework to do?

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@Toibin1 @SITARMS What are you on about? Clueless as usual…..

[South East Military Veterans @EastVeterans]

Will someone tell @HMcEntee that the National Memorial to members of the Defence Forces is being used as a bin site to some kind of hipster food festival...

[Don Lavery @donlav]

@ThomasByrneTD @EastVeterans @IRLDeptDefence When are you and your government going to prioritise Irish Defence and Security?
We are still defenceless, and still a laughing stock.
#LOA3 now at least - fund them adequately.

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@ThomasByrneTD @IrishDad16 @iiea @Deloitte Get a move on so. Very little progress since CoDF. Why the delay?

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@willieodeaLIVE Not needed. Legislation only required. We will still be neutral after removal of Triple Lock. As a former Defence Minister you should know this.

[Don Lavery @donlav]

@ConorHogarty @BarryAndrewsMEP @McNamara_Eoin @nytimes @meganspecia @EUCouncil @fiannafailparty @RenewEurope Barry, we were in a better position 10-15 years ago.
We had more personnel, a bigger Navy, more powerful armoured vehicles in the Scorpion/ AML-90 fleets, (not replaced),an anti aircraft regiment with L70 anti aircraft guns (not replaced).
No increase in capability post 2022.

[Conor Hogarty @ConorHogarty]

RTE news : EU again urges Govt to 'reinforce' defence spending.
🇮🇪 government likes to talk about defence. But practical delivery of capability improvements remains lethargic, at best.
It's time to fix defence.

@BarryAndrewsMEP @dmchammer1 @MichealMartinTD @fiannafailparty Why does the Taoiseach not mention Defence portfolio in relation to the proposed referendum?

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@JeremyGuscott Since Jacques came on board Leinster's performances/skill set have fallen off considerably.

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@LOCthedreamer2 This is baloney!

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@gearoidmurphy_ Triple Lock has nothing to do with Neutrality.

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@HMcEntee Any update on investment in our Defence Forces…..more haste please…..

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@wolfetones Do not agree.

[Paul Roche @proche1]

@cahillbooks @ciarancannon Well done Mairia. Always admired your work.
