I see Mr Chambers on rte spewing out the same old shite about what they are going to build in the next few years, 40k ramping up to 90k per year. And not a word about the 100k plus apartments around the country that contravene current building regs which he is fully aware of. Not to mention who is going to do all the remedial works, if the current contractors are busy trying to meet his targets. I dont know how the majority of voters believe this bullshit and keep voting the same clowns in. We get what we vote for, morons.

How he has a career after Micheal Lowry running rings around him in government negociations is beyond me.....scary to think he is sent overseas to represent the country

The government have zero intention of ever sorting those apartments or building even half the houses required to solve this issue.....they have politically absorbed the cost and are happy to leave it fester now into a disaster zone like the health service

Mutter, mutter something about the Gubbermint. Grumble, grumble it's all the Leftists fault.

Delta airways flight crash lands in Toronto , ends up upside down with all of the passengers and crew alive.(1 in critical condition).

Looks like the right wing came off somehow, and not sure how exactly the plane ended up upside down. Very little fire damage and the fuselage doesn’t look too damaged.

Stroke of luck

People voted for the triple lock as part of Lisbon treaty,it's time to start unraveling our extremist integration into Europe and walking away from the rest of European treaties....the establishment have opened the door to us to leave Europe and begin process of dismantling European treaties implicated on us.....if they can dismantle the add-on to Lisbon treaty any and all future governments elected here can begin to dismantle our relationship with EU,it's long since time we're better off alone,than let the clowns in Leinster house dispatch our army to be slaughtered for the EU and nato

After decades of fighting and being the first to hold the line and push Isis back, including having many Irish in its ranks then (could never forgive yanks for screwing em over),the PKK have stood down the militant wing


Not forgetting that girl from Waterford who got caught up in a bus bombing by them either ..... hopefully they'll get a country of their own in any peace settlement

Questioned by John Hayden SC, defending, the garda confirmed that there was no evidence that he had not distributed the material.

This is twisted!
How the heck can anyone produce evidence of something that did not happen?

Multiculturalism is going well in Europe,every culture is allowed except ours


What's the point of all this?,why are the establishment here so determined to run us closer and closer to Europe who won't allow our language to be spoken

It's trying to increase it usage and relevance is needed,not enmesh us into a political system that wants it banned,what was point of driving the English out of the 26 only to end up with an establishment bent on serving a Europe that deosnt want us

In 1721 Danish-Norwegian missionary Hans Egede launched an expedition to Greenland, and established a Danish presence on the island.
From then to today it has been Danish.

Of course there were Inuit there but no one cared about them!

I just find it very hypocritical,the Danes critising the yanks,when they done exact same,in Faroe islands,Iceland and greenland.....it was like the Brits critising Russia for occupying crimea,while visiting Belfast and clinging onto the north,such open hypocrisy that media ignore to challenge trumpism,leads to rightful distrust of the media


Greenland should be a country of its own imo

Of course the USians did similar to the natives in North America ...... after French and British had their input!

There is no one without a blot in their history.

Irish establishment heading for an awakening,wanting army and gaurds to team up,is going to lead to questions as to why the army have refused to do checkpoints with the gaurds,special branch in particular,since December 1983

Profitable day for Irelands oligarchs,wonder is this a payout to Lowry for the government

[Setanta]

I remember being slated for saying the government is corrupt and would use housing situation to funnel money to associates


So they've appointed a new individual paid three times the amount the US president is to oversee this theft of public money
