Nope, she really is giving back 32k euro.

IF she stays a TD for 4 years! By the way, do you have a link to that claim?

Even if she didn't 8k in itself is a fair whack

Compared to other TD's who fleece us faking they were in work.

I know. It's a disgrace.

But the point was about her handing back the 32k euro to the public coffers.

I say she is praying that FF and FG form a government. Otherwise it’ll be back to the ballot box and bye bye to the TDs wage and pension as she wouldn’t get in if there was a do over.

Here we have one handing back her 8k raise.

Fair play to her.

Did she? Really?
I'd rather she took her wage and paid her debts.

(As opposed to tokenism and refusing to pay whats legitimately owed. To a charity.)

I don’t understand what ‘deceleration’ means in this context. Can you clarify please?

Depends.

If the they put up the same lads who were voting while not in work and fleecing us for falsely claimed expenses.

Not great options really.

What’s your honest opinion on how An Taoiseach and his ministers are handling the current situation?

It’ll go some way to paying for her former party colleagues pensions.

“ Sinn Féin has defended its approach to pensions as it emerged that four of its TDs will retire from the Dáil with pension pots varying from €495,000 to €1.72 million.” https://www.irishtimes.com/news/politics/sinn-f%C3%A9in-pledges-to-cut-salaries-of-tds-and-ministers-if-elected-1.4148214

Which part?

Not wanting to call off the parade?

Spending 40m on un-usuable PPE gear?

Begging bono for money?

Dublin pubs having to source PPE?

Giving 100 people the wrong test results?

Can you be bit more specific on "handling"

I know it is standard SF just to put down someone elses work while doing nothing yourself


But tell me some of the good SF have done since the crisis started? I dont count slagging people off on facebook as good work

Also I dont count talking to the press as good work!!! that should be a given but with SF they seem to think it is brillant just to shoot off mouth to press

I must have missed something.

SF are not in government.

The question was regarding the current government.

Well according to most on here SF "won" the election. So they should have some power


Wasn't Mary Lou invited to daily briefing with the stand in government?


Tell you what, instead of throwing mud, come back when SF actually do something good....I might pay some attention to your ranting and raving then...


Oh yeah, paying money someone robbed from a Charity is not good either, thats just what any decent person would do, sorry any decent person wouldnt rob it in the first place

limnam

What I'm hearing is

Stop pointing out all the things the current government do wrong.

Please point out what the party not in government are doing!!

It's a bizarre stance.

If someone asks an opinion on current government actions. Don't get all childish when it's answered.

It's not a bizarre stance. Well it might be from a mud slinging SF point of view......


It's a simple question, what good have SF done since the start of the crisis? Your failure to answer the question tells me all I need to know...

The current balls up is from the current government.

Has she given back the money she robbed?


Also she isn't giving back anything. She is not taking it, but is entitled to it so in two months time she could take it, its a PR exercise

It was Maryanne84 that brought up current government actions.

I'm just answering the questions.

Dublin pubs sourcing PPE.

Embarrassing.

I'm not aware of any stolen money.

If you're referring to rental arrears. Mail her and ask.

Would you agree that it is civil servants that procure PPE?

If reading Irish media it would seem you get a minister to beg a musican.

The one good thing to come from this pandemic is the good people doing all they can to support their fellow countrymen and women. From young people joining local volunteers and delivering groceries and other supplies to vulnerable, housebound neighbors. To pubs and clubs fundraising for vital supplies that the whole World are trying to source. Nothing embarrassing in that. The opposite, in fact. Honest, decent citizens using unexpected and unwanted free time to help their fellow citizens through uncharted waters. I, for one am proud of them and more proud to serve alongside them.
