People are dying needlessly in our emergency departments. Niamh could have been one of them.

She was told she was 'very lucky'-but people shouldn't have to rely on luck. Our hospitals should be properly staffed & resourced. Gov must lift the HSE recruitment embargo without delay

The Govt does not have a democratic mandate to dismantle Irish military neutrality. If they wish to change this policy they need to go to the people and seek their democratic permission to do so.

Ever since I have known Kellie, she has been a passionate, straight talking person…

Stopped by Hanna Hats in Donegal Town to get kitted out ahead of the election campaigns with Chris MacManus MEP, and Cllr Noel Jordan. Very impressive family business with a proud history and an international reach.

Fact Check: ‘We therefore rate Fine Gael’s claim as FALSE’

Government’s spin is exposed again. Simon Harris attempts to deflect from broken promises, trolley counts, and waiting lists by attacking Sinn Féin are proven FALSE!

It’s time for change!

FactCheck: Did SF really propose spending €500m less on health than the Govt?

Conclusion: We therefore rate FGs claim as FALSE…this means the claim is inaccurate.

An honest Taoiseach would correct the Dáil record. What will ⁦Simon Harris TD⁩ do? thejournal.ie/factcheck-sinn…
