This poll is very significant. The left parties must cop on, come together & propose a Government not lead by FF or FG but by a progressive alliance of Sinn Fein, Greens, Labour etc -who's combined support of 40% dwarfs either of tweeddle dum or dee. #GeneralElection2020 #GE2020 pic.twitter.com/H5KEU6Clw5

I really wish we would stop using the term "social housing" and use the term "public housing" instead.
It captures much better the role of the state in providing this crucial part of societal infrastructure.
No one says "social education" or "social transport". #GE2020

Mass Immigration is hurting Irish citizens. "Refugees" brought here under the IRPP wait on average 185 days for social housing. The average wait for an Irish citizen is 7 years. Remember this when the establishment come knocking. #GE2020 pic.twitter.com/L6pxyN6lpO
