@RadishHarmers Yeah but what about 4? That one's pretty cool

@ClareH57130 @thejournal_ie Pretty much anyone eligible who applies

@Michael_O_B In fairness to Verona, it does look like what they're doing is technically allowed. It shouldn't be and it's wrong but if they're not technically breaking a rule I don't see it as up to her to rectify.

@GrrlGhost I think you're reading the chart wrong. The average is where the main bar ends, slightly below the line for still water.

an insane side effect of current war discourses is slowly normalising the idea that it’s expected for countries to have a hard geographical border between ordinary people and the the state. imagine if the phone of anyone who worked in eg these two buildings suddenly blew up

It's a story about this guy

@Nenaghman Fair enough. What about your lack of trust in IPAS makes you think that site is unsuitable? What do you think they'll do that will have a negative impact? Are you worried they'll evict tenants like you mentioned happening in Borrisokane?

[Tom Brophy @tombrophy1]

@Nenaghman That estate is huge. A handful of additional units will make no noticeable difference to the traffic and not something I noticed you having a problem with before now. Is the problem with IPAS as an organisation or with the people they house?

[Tom Brophy @tombrophy1]

@Nenaghman Why isn't the site suitable?

[Tom Brophy @tombrophy1]

@Nenaghman I don't think that those people getting eviction notices means we should discourage IPAS in a suitable location though.

[Tom Brophy @tombrophy1]

@Nenaghman That's awful that those people have been served eviction notices. Do you know why they did it? Is it just to free up the accommodation for new tenants?

[Tom Brophy @tombrophy1]

@Nenaghman To be honest I'm not really sure what you mean by the trust is lost or taking people for granted. Nenagh seems to me a particularly good town for an IPAS centre given schools, transport, jobs, etc. Isn't it a good thing to use land lying idle to help those needing accommodation?

@CethanLeahy @Bubblenoma They did a whole TV show following up on him as an adult. Gets a bit dark at times.

@OConnorOisin It's really more accurate to say 77% fossil fuel vehicles. Self charging hybrids derive all their energy from fossil fuels. They're efficient but they're still petrol fueled vehicles.
