From Tipperary Ireland, living in California. interest in politics and finance and coleslaw addict!

Jack Chambers’ budget looks good on paper — but raising the minimum wage again risks crushing small businesses already hit by VAT, energy & pension costs. Higher wages = higher prices = more inflation. Good politics, bad economics. 🇮🇪💶 #Budget2025 #Ireland


From a lifelong FF family—no more. Martin & Harris blocking Maria Steen is sickening. They’ve forced Ireland too far left. Time for real alternatives! #MariaSteenForPresident


Simon Harris is the definition of a career politician — never held a real job, yet making decisions for people whose struggles he’s never lived. The Harvey case shows why we need real checks & balances: performance-linked pay, accountability, and empathy in office. #ResignHarris

The war in Gaza started last October but these brave warriors of justice start their encampment now, just when the weather is getting nice n’ warm. Their commitment to a free Palestine is rather erm, seasonal.

Mattie's duty is to represent the voices of his constituency. Unfortunate for you that it falls outside what you want to hear instead Mairia.

Brilliant!

Bumped into an old mate who told me he’d never take a Covid vaccine “when we know so little about it”. The same lad used to take pills every weekend 20 years ago bought from Decko outside the Temple of Sound.

Beautifully edited piece to sum it all up. #BidenHarris2020 #BidenElectedPresident You’ll like this @Salina_Sells

We all know about Joe Biden’s love of Seamus Heaney. So myself and VT editors Meabh Kearney and Cliona Higgins put this together to wrap this historic day for @rtenews



***Breaking News*** I have just called the election, Biden wins!


Times have changed!

WATCH: The last time a one term President lost George H. W. Bush conceding to Bill Clinton “we respect the majesty of the democratic system... and America must always come first and we will get behind this new president and wish him well.”

My long read on how Borrisokane changed its mind on asylum seekers. "Justin Barrett was trying to hijack it. But that was the turning point. When his supporters turned up on Saturday they were told by several people, ‘Get out.’ We don’t want this.” irishtimes.com/news/social-af…
