Instead of giving criminals the death penalty just make them listen to Ian Garry for the rest of their lives. They’d cry out for the chair…

Daft Q2 report: average 3-bed semi now costs €580k in Dublin and €445k nationally. No amount of GDP fairy tales, international obligations or media spin can hide the truth. Politicians have destroyed the ability of ordinary people to own a home in their own country.

I have huge respect for passionate pundits, for me Donal Óg is superb but there was a huge level of disrespect shown to Joe Canning there.

Saying 'How many All Ireland Medals have you got' to one of greatest hurlers to ever play the game on live television is an embarrassment

[Ronan Sheehan @newryhurler1]

@Drip2themoon Look at the other people on the pitch already .....there is no defending that

[Ken O’Flynn TD @kenoflynnTD]

I am horrified by the attack which took place in Belfast last night.

The video footage circulating online appears to show an attempted beheading. If confirmed, this represents an act of barbaric violence that has no place anywhere in Ireland. A man remains in hospital with serious injuries and another man has been arrested.

This is not an isolated concern. In 2022, a man was beheaded in Sligo. More recently, a number of serious violent incidents in Dublin have dominated national headlines.

There is a serious law and order problem across Ireland which must be addressed. The public has a right to feel safe in their communities, and those responsible for acts of extreme violence must face the full force of the law.

My thoughts are with the victim, their family, and the emergency services who responded to this horrific incident.

[EireX @lastman3344]

Just over a year ago, I nearly became another statistic.

On 18 March 2025 in Waterford City, I was the victim of a serious knife assault.

Like many victims, I trusted that the criminal justice system would do its job. I believed that once someone was charged in connection with such serious violence, public safety would be the priority.

Today, another family is grieving the loss of a 21 year old man following a separate fatal stabbing incident that is now the subject of an active Garda investigation.

Out of respect for that investigation, I will not speculate on guilt, innocence, or outcomes. Those matters belong to the courts.

But I do believe there are questions that deserve answers.

How are individuals charged with serious violent offences monitored while on bail?

The individual charged in connection with the assault on me was arrested, charged, and subsequently released on bail with conditions that included not entering Waterford City, This was after months of him hiding in the UK and bragging about the attack on TikTok saying if he gets jail he gets jail so what.

THIS IS PUBLIC IMFORMATION AMD ARRESTS HAVE BEEN MADE AND COURT HAS BEEN ADJOURNED!

reports indicate these bail conditions were ALLEGEDLY breached on multiple occasions, including attendance at events in the city all posted on social media.

That same individual is now ALLEGEDLY main suspect in a separate murder investigation involving another stabbing, with investigations ongoing.

This raises serious questions about bail decisions and monitoring of individuals charged with violent knife crime, especially when multiple victims were stabbed in one night in the same city.

What happens when bail conditions are allegedly breached?

Are victims and the wider public being adequately protected from repeat violence?

These are not political questions.

They are public safety questions.

I know what it is like to be on the receiving end of serious violence. I know how quickly lives can be changed forever.

My thoughts today are with the family of the young man who lost his life, and with every victim of violent crime who has been left wondering whether more could have been done.

Ireland deserves a justice system that protects innocent people, supports victims, and takes violent offending seriously.

Public safety must remain the priority.

Tobin turns away thinking it can’t be stopped after connecting right on the money - a rocket of a shot going exactly where he wanted it to!

Just an incredible full length save from Mark Sheedy, an extraordinary piece of individual brilliance 🏆 https://t.co/sbI13s3jkv

Hey guys, why don’t they wanna talk about why I need a hotel in the first place?

Karen Bass let my home burn down.

@Nick_Delehanty One of the best shops in Dublin to be fair

[CM @CM5034961768505]

@Nick_Delehanty Don’t know why he’d hide this, would probably get more votes for saying he worked there, Dominic’s is a staple of that community and a lot of people in the area depend on that shop!

[Second Tier podcast @secondtierpod]

This is incredible for the Sheffield Wednesday fans.

Announcing this in the stadium, the reaction is just 👌

[Balls.ie @ballsdotie]

This is class from Joe Canning.

After doing radio commentary for the Kilkenny - Wexford yesterday, he stopped to be interviewed by young Wexford tik-toker Cormac Rowsome.

Answered every question with consideration and provided genuine insight when no doubt he was ready to head back home.

FIANNA Fáil backbenchers are 'unhappy' over the failure of the Coalition to nominate a iunior minister to replace Michael Healy-Rae. - ✍️John Drennan

Although the Government has yet to officially confirm this, one senior source said: Put bluntly the plan is to extinguish the ministry.'

Oi 😂😂😂

[James O'Connor TD @JamesOConnorTD]

Leo’s urban bias balaclava slips. He should do his Fine Gael colleagues a favour and go into the quiet night to enjoy his private life. It goes against the precedent of Iar Taoisigh by commenting so actively on government policy and social issues and is corrosive to his “legacy”.

Mo Salah starts on the bench for Liverpool tonight.

Over in Longford, Mo Salami of St Maur's is scoring screamers for the Dublin minors.

@LeoVaradkar You had *checks notes* thirteen years in government to make these graphs look different. Thankfully only one of us teaches economics. You wouldn’t even get into my class 💁🏼‍♀️
