The moment when you discover the new dress you thought didn't have pockets, actually does. And not those awful micro pockets, proper deep fit a phone inside pockets and 2 of them!!

I know we have become scandal fatigued, but this is a major scandal uncovered by the The Ditch - children enduring un-necessary surgery for financial gain.😯 Why are RTÉ News ignoring it? They had the Tanaiste Simon Harris TD, the former Health Minister on This Week RTÉ

*Job Fairy* For the last 6 months I've worked as the Ed Officer. They are wonderfully supportive and understand work life balance. I'm moving to another role within Swim Ireland, so my role is now vacant. It's full time hybrid with a really great team. Pop in a CV if interested

Taoiseach talks about public inquiries not working & costing too much but has it dawned on him that establishing effective & efficient inquiries is a function of govt, & if they haven’t worked up to now - a highly debatable proposition - responsibility for that lies with govt!

More families with children coming forward. Following the Publication of the HIQA report into CHI, which was damning and outlined a litany of management, clinical, ethical , informed consent failures. This wasn't just about the use of the unauthorised, non-medical use Springs

Framing this as an issue about giving children constitutional access to an education as inconvenient to revenue and making it seem like their fault is unconscionable. Its not disabled children vs other children; the fight should be against the government

None of the people complaining about women being 'unable' to use the loos have ever complained about the lack of disabled loos and disabled women being forced to go home just to have a wee But we don't count, do we?

So was flicking thru channels to watch something. Saw the eurovision and we love it, Ava especially, the cheese, the costumes, the music. But instead of watching it, we will watch Eurovision, the story of fire saga, because we get all the best bits without the genocide supporters

Helen is not happy with attendances in school and is launching an info campaign to tackle the problem, but what about those children with needs who want to attend school but can’t get school place? Silence! #SchoolEquality independent.ie/irish-news/hug… ‘

When did the National Therapy Service start ? According to Department of Education and Youth, as recently as Nov 24 it never heard tell of Dept therapists in schools and had no plans to recruit any! So from Nov w/ the election and the speaking rights issue, WHEN precisely was this set up ?

Fact Check Norma Foley T.D There was never a requirement you had to have an Assessment of Need to get DCA or a social house. EVER! So please correct this and avoid the temptation to distract and divert from the very serious issues and challenges that exist for children and

Three previous Taoisigh made promises to her. 😌 Presumably, that's Micheál Martin Simon Harris TD & Leo Varadkar - a 14-year-old child sleeping outside tonight, for disability services lads. That's your politics !

Just some of the children that are locked out of the Irish education system. Please join today, 2pm at the Garden of Remembrance to support them and show the government that we won't allow children with additional needs to be forgotten.
