If your plans where to spoil your vote, please don't now switch to voting for 'Jim Gavin', who remains on the ballot. His votes and transfers will still be counted. Voting for him will send a signal you were not aware of him withdrawing from it. Thanks

#Speirgorm ๐งต Just read Pascal Donohoe said #Budget2026 will "invest in our future while also securing current jobs, prosperity & stability" I wonder if he asked ppl with #disabilities & on other social welfare payments if they feel stable or prosperous or if they even have the capacity to consider

What the newspaper and its editorial staff did not say is that the scoop was handed on a plate to them by Gavinโs tenant who happens to be a fellow colleague in Mediahuis, owner of the Indo and various titles, including the Sunday World. That former tenant is the deputy editor of the World, Niall Donald.

I was one of the leaders of Scrap The Green Paper because I & my friends were suicidal after learning proposals for ~84% of disabled to be pushed into work
I've not recovered from pushing myself to fight it, nor my friends
I'm so broken & Humphreys wants a house in the park on our backs
#รกras25
Don't even want to think about that fight let alone speak about it, but she should have to resign based on what I learned about that Green Paper from civil servants behind the scenes
They knew the paper was a mess and they pushed it anyway
They did damage to disabled people
