"LESSONS LEARNED": Ben Scallan takes a deep dive into the fundamental waste and inefficiency at the heart of the Irish State going back decades.

#Ireland needs an audit. Every single government department, every NGO. Imagine the waste and fraud that's going on.

Terrific reporting. Now that’s what we want from proper investigative journalists 👏👏👏

Waste.. "Lesson learned." More waste.. "Lesson learned." Yet more waste.. "Ah here, c'mon..?!?" If you haven't learned by now.. you're either beyond stupid or deliberately wasteful. When it comes to TDs, it seems they never learn & always waste.

One of your Gold Standard productions Ben. Well done. "Lessons will be learned" has become a joke, Yet the people keep voting them in, although not so sure about the last election.

The bigger the failure, the more certain people profit, but the taxpayer pays the piper in the end.

Sterling work as always Ben! Funny how QuaNGOs just morphed into NGOs. Most of them are just mechanisms for the puppeteers to use our own money against us

We need DOGE on steroids with serious powers to reprimand, fire and prosecute public finance waste, ineptitude, inappropriate practices and fraud

Excellent. More like this please. What you’re describing with the lack of accountability is nothing less than a Racket that has contempt for the people and protects its own. Ireland has become the comic opera version of Tammany Hall. But until you change the electoral system and make it possible to actually throw the bums out. Nothing will change.

€99 million worth of covid jabs and antigen tests they overstocked and went in the bin because they were out of date

@Ben_Scallan Ireland has a wild notion that the 33 000 NGOs are "independent" and not money laundering establishment influence peddlers. Change comes when the State stops funding the NGOs, and transparency and public audit is introduced. Until then it's all a rigged mugs game.
