“…that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

Irish Examiner Political Editor makes a fool of herself again. A little research would have led her to the knowledge that roads melted in Ireland during the 1970s, 80s and 90s. But I guess she doesn’t let the truth get in the way of a bad story.

Who would believe anybody could destroy a country in five short years. Who are they working for?


Aontú disagrees with Independent Ireland. We won't be supporting Holohan's bid to be president for many reasons, not least because of the actions of NPHET and because of Cervical Check. irishtimes.com/ireland/2025/0…
Boris Johnson once dubbed Keir Starmer a "Pointless Human Bollard," and he’d likely slap the same label on our pothole-peddling duo, Dumb & Dumber. One’s an ex-history teacher who thinks “Irish Sovereignity” is a craft beer, and the other you wouldn’t trust to water a cactus.…
We have a Taoiseach and Tánaiste who are drunk at the wheel of state (on their perception of their own power). In the meantime Ireland is careening towards the precipice of another recession with signs that the domestic economy is already in that state. It is time for them to go.
"Have these politicians lost their f**kin minds when it comes to what their job is?" John compares the stories affecting Irish people this week to the diaries of our political leaders. PODCAST: youtu.be/RRV6HRjrURI?si…

Beneath the shadow of Golgotha, as the storm clouds raged and the earth trembled, stood a Roman centurion, a man of war, duty, and hardened steel. His name was Longinus, a soldier sworn to Rome, but destined for something far greater. The Sanctification of Longinus - a 🧵✝️
This is the kind of utter nonsense @malcolmbyrne engages in, while people in his constituency are dealing with his party’s complete failure in health, homelessness, housing and the cost of living crisis. Unfortunately there is no recall option for the people in Wicklow-Wexford.
Is this really a priority in the Wicklow-Wexford constituency? The fading of a rainbow crossing? Not the housing crisis? The cost of living scandal? The interminable hospital waiting lists? No? Get your priorities straight @malcolmbyrne you absolute clown. Can you hear…

When individuals who arrive here possess greater rights than those of us who are residents, it is appropriate to consider withdrawing from the jurisdiction of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in matters pertaining to Justice and Home Affairs. #OptOutECJ
€1 million will be spent on the Taoiseach's 8 political and media advisers this year. "This is 3 times the cost of the bicycle shed and it's ongoing, it's happening every single year". Peadar Tóibín TD breakingnews.ie/ireland/spend-…
The EU is giving the Irish government two fingers on the upcoming trade tariff war.
This lady is deluded. When you’re so far to the left, the actual left seem right. Positioning of Irish political parties on the left/right access based of last GE policies.
And they would like her to be president of Ireland? Really?
Congratulations @vonderleyen on your re-election as President of @EU_Commission! Setting the stage today for a successful second term, to build a stronger Europe over the next five years 🇪🇺
I am telling you now that this current government have single-handedly destroyed the amazing Irish American relationship that we’ve enjoyed for decades. It will take some doing to restore it. Irish tourism and hospitality can turn off the lights if American tourists stop coming…

The Government repeatedly desecrates our national monuments. Enough is enough. #aontú #aontúaccountability #gpo
This is absolute madness! I do a regular Garda background check to continue to be allowed to enter the school I’m retired from. But if I wish to open and direct an IPAS centre no worries, no checks just cheques for € millions.
THE Government has paid millions to a company for asylum seeker accommodation owned by a man who the Criminal Assets Bureau have linked to the Drogheda gang feud. - Eamon Dillon Ben O`Brien resigned in May as director of Secure Accommodation, which has been paid €10.2 million…
They didn’t! Wait until you see the new Irish Children’s Hospital.
Why did humans stop building like this?
In a hundred years time when our alien overlords scroll through the archives, when they find the tweet of the authorities telling us NOT to hang out our washing in the sunny days, they will have all the proof they need that this truly was the dumbest generation in the history of…
