Passengers arriving into Ireland shouldn't be allowed to waltz through Dublin Airport without explaining how they intend to self-isolate. We need to protect the progress we've made against #COVID19

So impressed by the talent showcased at tonight's @yfg Great Debate! Well done to everyone who took part👏 Fair play to #YFGNC21 organisers. Not easy moving an entire conference online and keeping it interactive and engaging but you did exactly that. Enjoy the weekend folks!
