@petealexharris The #UK wants to be increasingly friendly with the European Union #EU. The EU includes the Republic of Ireland. The Republic of Ireland could, through the EU, make refusing a #BorderPoll extremely costly for the UK.
However, that would depend on the Irish government really wanting a #UnitedIreland, which, even though #SinnFein are currently in power, just ain't necessarily so.

This is very sloppy stuff from #RTE.
Yeah, the bike sheds were way too expensive, but the RTE report is a complete mess.
It's like Micheal Lehane was only half-listening to what was being said.RTE report: https://www.rte.ie/news/2024/0924/1471750-bike-shelter-leinster-house/

In recent weeks, we've seen our Minister for Justice appease the right by restricting access for asylum seekers, far right protestors taunt the Gardaí with "we didn't start the fire" and now prominent left activists are arrested while protesting.
We expect Gardaí to police everyone equally, and hope that recent arrests at a pro-Palestine march are an isolated incident, rather than a targeted campaign.
