Today is my last day as a TD. I later hope to pass the baton on to the next generation. It has been a huge honour and privilege to represent the people of Kerry and West Limerick since 2002.Onwards and upwards to that certain day. #GeneralElection2020

Over 12000 Gaels in Ulster have now endorsed our letter to An Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD which to date he has ignored. We are inviting Gaels across Leinster, Munster & Connaught to join us and play your part. Sign here: gaelslettertotaoiseach.ie/ it’s time to plan! #gaelsletter

Let’s be clear, this shire of bastards are using everyone of us in some form of twisted medical experiment. Do you honestly believe the rest of Europe is wrong & this balloon and his ilk are right. If you are not angry it’s time to get angry, we are on the brink of disaster!

The public need assurances that the plans in place are adequate to contain the Coronavirus and to deal with this public health emergency. I have contacted @LeoVaradkar to urgently convene a meeting of party leaders to assess the situation. #coronavirus

And an absolute gentleman with it.
"Lovely to make friendship again with the Frewen Cup" 83 year old Con McCarthy gets his hands on the @Munsterpps Frewen Cup 66 years after he won it with @thegreencbs in 1954. #GAA

David, that’s the @JOEdotie tagline not mine. I simply retweeted the article. Surprised you’d make such a rookie mistake.

What is the big deal about the SF rallies? I recall huge rallies held by the now defunct PDs in the 1980s. It is called politics!

We have always said we want ordinary people's voices heard in the corridors of power. No amount of hysterics from FF/FG will stop us talking to and listening to ordinary members of the public. Come along to one of our public meetings and see for yourself @PearseDoherty

From the crowd that literally broke the state.
Don't treat people as fools @EOBroin. Right out of the Trump playbook. Any right-minded person knows what you & your SF colleagues are at. You won't "break the state" and you won't be allowed to do so.

My mother is 85 years old. What sort of idiot thinks my party is involved in a ‘ruse’ to get the PSNI to visit her at 11pm on a Friday night to warn her about the threat of a bomb attack on her home. @JohnMooneyST and his security ‘sources’ should go hang their heads in shame.
Lots of talk about threats to @sinnfeinireland by the New IRA on #RTE. No one in the security services believes there is any substance to them. #Saoradh also issued a statement denying the same and suggested it might be a ruse to detract from Paul Quinn controversy #sinnfein

To those criticising SF for holding rallies on Govt formation I have to ask: What is so wrong about including voters in the conversation? Must our engagement with voters stop after polling day? If you want to be part of the conversation then come along & help shape the future.

I have written to the Presidents of UCD, DCU, NUIG, NUM, UL, TCD & UCC requesting meetings to discuss proposed on-campus student rent increases. High rents are a barrier to education. There has to be a better solution to financing of student accommodation. @TheUSI

This from journalist who didn’t bother to attend the actual press conference to ask any questions. I’m for a free press. I believe office seekers should be scrutinised. But I also think journalists should do the job they are paid for. Next time turn up John. #Scarlet4Ya
