I would rather 50 people got benefits they didn't need than 1 went without food or shelter.
Hot take maybe but I actually don’t give a shit about benefit fraud.
I give a shit about multimillionaires and billionaires existing and not paying tax on their actual wealth.

If you live in Ireland, remember that in recent memory a single rugby-loving bank CEO cost the taxpayer more than every single welfare recipient in the state COMBINED. #SpeirGorm

This is my 6th year posting this same message. Black Friday is a nonsense with often pretend discounts on stuff you probably don’t need. We’ll do as we always do at this time and increase the 1% of all income we give to Women’s Aid to 10% on web sales over the weekend. Fuck Black Friday. #speirgorm

Watching the new BBC drama Prisoner 951, and I am so tense. This is terrifying. (It's based on the true story of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe).

I live in (what I think I'm correct in saying is) the most diverse constituency in the whole country - Dublin Central, D1 - *and* I'm old enough to remember what this place was like before significant immigration, and the idea that immigration hasn't been good for this country is fucking laughable

Empire with David Olusoga has been very interesting. It's barely mentioned Ireland, though - you could almost imagine that the "British Empire" was something which only happened far away. Not right next door.

It really has to be said that Caoimhin Kelleher played as important a role today as Troy Parrott did. A lesser keeper and 3 goals wouldn’t have been enough to win that game #speirghorm #coybig

Is Oliver Callan going to have Parrott's Mam back on the radio tomorrow? That was a lovely touch, so Irish (complimentary).
