"You have to be a citizen to get social housing" Disinformation again by @MichealMartinTD here Remember when he lied to Gav Reilly, Richard Chambers & Zara King during #ge24 claiming in that VM group chat they were on 40,000 homes built that year? Real figure 30,000 homes

I’d like to see Ben Scallan sit down with @michaeldorgan @FoxNews and go through the claims point by point. @thejournal_ie, Ben has set you a challenge. You champion transparency and fact-checking apparently 🤭, so will you accept and put the claims to the test? 👀😉

How refreshing to see professional journalism. Well done Gript for addressing domestic issues, not a poxy game of football. This clip highlights two politicians who are lying or wholly incompetent, either way they’re not fit for office. What other lies are being told to us?

Happy that you question the Taoiseach any chance you get - but your questions are mad long - short and to the point is mucho better

Micheal skirting around the facts by launching chaff and flare countermeasure like an F16 pilot evading a missile.
