I have to say, “I read books, meet deadlines and been successful so I can’t have ADHD” is a mad take. I’m surprised to see it from someone educated in the area and highlights the need for anyone who’s gone for a diagnoses and been denied, to get a second opinion. www.independent.ie/comment/opin...

This video is muddled tbh. I created oireachtas-explorer.ie but I don’t track any lobbying or spending data. Just the open data in the Oireachtas api. It looks like they made a video about another site oireachtasconnect.ie which actually does track lobbying data.
