Haha. What ta fuck was Chambers thinking anyway? Says he won't talk to the unions about the thing they want to talk about and then on the 11th hour asks for a meeting to consider talking about the thing they want to talk about. His hand gets weaker by the day. Clearly a fan of the 'Art of the Deal'

Jack Chambers has written to the leaders of the public sector trade unions, saying pay issues can be dealt with “as a priority” in any prospective talks on a new deal, and invited those unions to “intensive engagement” at the WRC tomorrow - all in a bid to avert Wednesday’s proposed strike action

Would like to see a journalist ask the 7 of Ireland's 14 MEPs (3 FG, 3 FF, 1 II) who just voted to: -endorse burqa bans -call "hatred of Israel" a sign of "Islamist influence" -identify European Muslim communities as potential tools of "malign foreign actors" to justify themselves
Believes that the practice of concealing the face in public spaces and premises open to the public poses an unacceptable challenge to public security, identification and effective law enforcement; supports, therefore, all national measures aimed at prohibiting full-face coverings (niqab or burqa) in public spaces and premises open to the public as a necessary step to ensure social cohesion, public safety and the protection of the rights and freedoms of others, in particular womenwhereas separatist narratives, systematic victimhood, antisemitism, anti-Christian hatred, hatred of Israel, conspiracy narratives, challenges to secularism, the use of religion as a tool of social control or the contestation of equality between women and men may constitute markers of ideological radicalisation or Islamist influence;whereas the ongoing investigations into suspected electoral fraud in Borlänge and Järva, Sweden, illustrate the particular vulnerability of diaspora communities to organised attempts at electoral influence; whereas such vulnerabilities may be exploited by malign foreign actors or transnational ideological networks pursuing covert agendas

If you went into a bank and asked for a loan, saying you’d put the proceeds into a savings account, they’d think you were a bit cracked. On a macro scale, that’s what Ireland is doing. This week’s column for @thejournal.ie:
jrnl.ie
€7.8 billion set aside for Ireland’s future in Budget 2027 means we're borrowing to save money
As the dust settles on the budget, isn’t it notable that Ireland is putting billions into long-term funds while borrowing money to pay the bills?

As someone who will probably "benefit" from this in the next few weeks, this is a bad idea. I'm not being "helped to buy". Taxes I've already paid, and that could've gone to funding basic services, will instead be funneled to the wealthy developer of an overvalued property.
