Lemass wasn’t the absolute worst (as FF Taoisigh go) but he did introduce the 1935 Conditions of Employment Act which restricted women’s access to the workplace. His biographer says he was sexist & regarded women’s employment as ‘contrary to the Irish way of life’, so that’s a no from me. #speirgorm

This house tax pretending is making me more insane than usual because as a renter I’ve had to move every 1-3 years just as standard because rents always rise. And no one cares. House owners get a tiny fraction of that precarity and suddenly it’s the worst thing that’s ever happened

Today going home from work at a Luas & pedestrian crossing with a green light for pedestrians 6 cars broke their red light and sped through the pedestrian crossing in case they got stuck waiting for the luas to cross and 2 minutes got added to their commute.
This happens Every. Single. Day.

Today, I saw a driver overtake a stopped bus and plough through a pedestrian crossing. He beeped three times as he sped though. The beeping was to warn people because, as he had overtaken a bus, he had zero visibility of who was about to step out onto the crossing.
But sure, more hi-vis, everyone

The importance of visibility on our roads cannot be understated, particularly for vulnerable road users including pedestrians, cyclists, e-scooter drivers and motorcyclists.

You can't actually cap migration into Ireland without:
1. Dismantling the Common Travel Area
2. Leaving the EU
3. Placing a hard border between the Republic and the North
This "population growth" argument the self-declared sensible people have come up with is in reality really extreme

The new rules and regulations will not affect tenants that have been in place before March 1 and after that date, they will see a six-year tenancy agreement put in place
Renters could be facing an even more uncertain market in the months ahead of new tenancy rules that are coming into effect

The undersea cables being discussed here are the private property of tech multinationals. Maybe they should be paying for the defence of their property instead of expecting Irish taxpayers to pony up.
When it comes to modern war, Ireland is a high-value target: its waters on the western fringe of Europe contain three-quarters of all undersea cables in the northern hemisphere. Despite this, is unprotected and unprepared.
