OFFICALS in the DPER recommended annual growth of 5.7% for the Government's spending plan up to 2030. Gov opted to go with an average of 6% and frontload this in 2026 and 2027. Compared to a smooth 5.7% growth rate this amounts to an extra €12bn! 💰💰 extra.ie/2026/02/24/n...

We’ve added more great acts today 🌚🌞

My column in today’s Irish Daily Mail about the scandal of physiologists without HSE mandated qualifications being employed in Irish hospitals.

The body tasked with ensuring diagnostic staff have recognised qualifications have paused their relationship with the @hselive.bsky.social The HSE can’t say who will do the checks now 🤷

🚨 Hospitals are hiring medics who are not qualified to work here, Mail investigation reveals. extra.ie/2026/01/28/n...

Officials in the Department of Foreign Affairs advised against claiming that providing enhanced funding to the World Bank would lead to an ‘enhanced national reputation’ for Ireland. extra.ie/2026/01/13/n...

🚨 Home building targets are set to be missed for every year of the lifetime of the Government with a warning delivery could “drop below current levels” in the coming years, internal documents reveal in today’s Irish Daily Mail.

Looking forward to the IMRO awards at the end of the month 🌑🌞

This letter which I reported on a few weeks ago will dog the current government for a while longer as they struggle to shake off the accusation they didn’t mislead the electorate.

We added some more great acts to the @nightdayfest.bsky.social lineup yesterday 🌑☀️

The Regional Independents have agreed to facilitate not being afforded speaking rights for TODAY to allow the Taoiseach to be nominated, but it is unclear if this will appease the Opposition.

No resolution, party whips meeting AGAIN… we could face the prospect of TDs being thrown out of the chamber if they refuse to allow business to proceed. My god.

A now deleted tweet…

A huddle among the Opposition Business Committee members and party leaders has formed inside the chamber, as they plot their next move. Will they go tika taka, or just launch it up to Big Duncan Smith? If the Ceann Comhraile ever comes back into the chamber (20 mins overdue) we might find out.

Quite the chaotic scenes in the Dail chamber this morning, with the House twice being suspended (yet to resume) as the row over speaking rights delays, for how long we don’t know, the election of Micheal Martin as Taoiseach. 🍿

Cost of new ministries set to cost €1m during the lifetime of the new Government 💰💸💶

Incoming junior ministers will receive thousands of euro in new accommodation expenses, the Irish Daily Mail can reveal. extra.ie/2025/01/16/n...

What is it that makes Ireland such an attractive location for foreign businesses? According to this client survey obtained by @righttoknow.bsky.social, and which the IDA withheld from release for almost a year and a half, it's still the corporate tax environment: www.thestory.ie/2024/12/31/c...

Senior civil servants advised AGAINST introducing another round of universal energy credits.

The housing crisis will get worse for the next four years… at least! extra.ie/2024/12/30/n...

Newly elected Ceann Comhraile Verona Murphy agreed a €50,000 gagging order preventing an alleged bully complaint against her by an older female member of staff being made public.

Verona Murphy has been elected as the Ceann Comhraile, becoming the first woman to occupy the role. The new (almost anointed) gov survives its first scare.

In comments that are likely to further to inflame our country’s diplomatic spat with Israel outgoing Ceann Comhraile Sean O’Fearghail likened Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with Putin and “other dictators”.

In his speech urging TDs to elect him as Ceann Comhraile John McGuinness has a swipe at input from TDs in Government stating that sometimes “the government” equates to simply the leaders of the coalition parties.

Coming in hot with @antonsavage.bsky.social

I’ll be on @rteradio.bsky.social for The Gathering with Claire Byrne at 11:30 to discuss the week’s events 📻

My response to having my journalistic integrity called into question by Gary Gannon over my pursuit of the Eoin Hayes story. extra.ie/2024/12/12/n...

I’ll be on @drivetime.bsky.social at 4:30 talking about Eoin Hayes and the attack on my journalistic integrity…

Last week I was being told that this wasn’t a story… today Eoin Hayes was suspended from the Soc Dems with slim chance of being let back in.

Eoin Hayes suspended from the Soc Dems with immediate effect.

There we have it… Eoin Hayes received €199,000 pre-tax when he divested his shares in Palantir in JULY of this year. This is despite telling journalists earlier he did so before entering politics. Soc Dems now reviewing the issue.

For 20 minutes newly elected Soc Dems TD Eoin Hayes refused to answer: 1) When he divested his shares in Palantir (Cian O’Callaghan said last week it was “this year”) 2) How much he received from the shares 3) If he will be donating any of it to Palestinian causes.

I wonder how the Social Democrats will be able to continue to say they stand with the people of Gaza? #GE24
