Want to know how much former Taoisigh, Ministers, and Presidents are paid in pension by the Dept of Finance??? Tough, you can’t anymore. That’s the latest decision by the Information Commissioner overturning a decade of transparency around publication of political pensions: pic.twitter.com/Lu81qkbg8B

Right to Know CLG and Department of Public Expenditure and Reform (Right To Know)
Meanwhile…
Today, the Information Commissioner has ruled that a minister’s special adviser – paid out of public funds – can do constituency work for that minister & you can’t know a thing about it. Even while using departmental resources, email addresses, and phones: https://t.co/roMB3Iw8xV

Yesterday.
Good times.
C’mon Bodger you’re just poking a sharp stick into our collective cage here.
Tis grand Lads sure we’re the Irish ,nothing bad would become of those “moderate” loop holes, all in this together,great community/communism.
Let’s talk about trump and Boris and how bruton,Bertie and Cowan are better,could be worse fallacy.
Speaking of cages, an Irish man was stuck in a cage with a hungry cheetah,an Englishman stuck in a cage with a hungry polar bear and “yank” was stuck in a cage with a hungry lion, the Irish thought it was grand because the cheetah is only small and the English and yanks have it worse.
Papa Doc is alive and well and thriving in Ireland
Name those underlying conditions, anyone.
Do we as the paymasters not have a right to know.
