One election candidate is referring to NGO funding as a "luxury idea" - I suspect people who rely on voluntary hospitals, disability services, public housing etc would not agree.
People are being misled by the Independent Ireland grouping.
They claim €6.2 billion is wasted on "NGOs" but that is going to voluntary hospitals, schools, universities, disability services and housing associations that just happen to be charities.
Is that all "waste"?

The Sultans of Ping* waited until this site was in its death throes before following me.
* I'm guessing this is not actually the Sultans of Ping FC as they're missing the "FC"
@garrethmcdaid No one mentioned Conor McGregor. We're talking about billionaires here. If you don't think billionaires have influence I don't know what to tell you.
If an election is called with polling on 29 November, the deadline for voter registration or updates will be Tuesday 12 November.
Don’t delay register now!

Only political take for today: if you see a conservative tweeting about what the Democrats should learn from defeat, make sure to check their history from 2020 so you can also enjoy their takes on what Republicans should learn from Trump's heavy loss in that election.
