Nor was it on "the canal walkway" (per Garda statement) - so it was NOT interfering with any effort "to tidy the walkway". As pics clearly show, it was tucked in tight to the the base of the bridge and not causing any obstruction to anyone. 2/3... #homelessness

This what they wanted, folks. They are literally terrified of a United Ireland and what it might mean for them electorally. Not just the prospect of a resurgent 32C SF (not their target market anyway), but the very real future threat posed by the SDLP, Alliance and even UUP.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said he believes the prospect of a united Ireland is now further away than it was before, in the wake of this week's RIC commemoration controversy

For the record: I have no problem with our flag being lowered for the passing of foreign dignitaries. I do, however, have a major problem with the completely arbitrary nature of such decisions. If it's OK for King Abdullah & the queen's ma, why isn't it OK for Castro & Chavez? 🤷‍♂️

Paschal keeps banging on about Ireland being "the best country in the world to be a child". Thousands of homeless kids as well as tens of thousands of kids living in poverty and on years-long hospital waiting lists might beg to differ. What an absolute spoofer. 🤬🤬 #Budget2024

As I understand it, Waterways Ireland is responsible for this policy of removing tents from the canal banks. They may, on occasion, be supported by DCC & Gardai in their efforts, but make no mistake about it: blame for this callous action lies squarely with WI. #homelessness 3/3

If the Govt tries to claim credit for getting Tori out of Dubai (as they are already doing), don't let them away with it. They hadn't a clue about the case until @MaryLouMcDonald raised it in the Dail yesterday. All credit to SF, not Harris or Martin. Let's stay real, please.

The RTE 9 O'Clock News caught me at Tommie's funeral today. Wearing a "Love (Shamrock) Rovers, Hate Racism" t-shirt. He'd have appreciated that. 🥰 Over 34 years of friendship, the SRFC v SRFC banter & slagging between us was unending. 😉💚❤️ 1/4

RTÉ, the so-called Irish national broadcaster have "never seen anything like this" because they censored themselves and churned out anti-republican propaganda throughout the conflict. This is the funeral of Larry Marley in 1987. It took 3 days to get his coffin to the church

This was a doctor's surgery until very recently. There's an Insomnia coffee shop next door. I can see the dog abuser in this footage. An unvetted male from a long way away. Guards should baton the f**k out of him. This is NOT Ballybrack, this is NOT the Borough. Scumbags. 🤬🤬

Ballybrack in south Dublin this evening. Damage done to a building which protesters believe is being refurbished to house refugees. Large uniformed garda presence as well as members of the public order unit. Some well-known far-right activists in attendance.

Just spotted 9 teenagers out playing ball on the green near me. Non contact, from what I can see, but still. Can I get an Indo photographer & reporter down for a front-page splash? Who do I call?? 🙈🙈🙈
