This afternoon.
Dublin Castle, Dublin 2.
Taoiseach Micheál Martin and cabinet members leave a meeting where a ‘brief’ discussion on easing rona restrictions was held.
Via RTÉ:
The Government decision on easing Covid-19 restrictions next week is now most likely to be taken on Friday.
A further cabinet meeting is expected to take place on Friday.
It will be preceded by a meeting of the National Public Health Emergency Team tomorrow and possibly a meeting of the Covid-19 Cabinet sub-committee on Thursday.
Meanwhile…
The key point that must be finalised is when restaurants and gastro pubs reopen and what guidelines might need to be issued to allow for indoor dining.
The prospect of pubs that do not serve food opening this year is said to be diminishing all the time.
Ministers must also decide on when exactly inter-country travel will be permitted in the days leading up to Christmas.

Have they asked Dennis what’s story with the g5 install or broadband.
The nurses have taken over the country,locked up like filthy animals.
Dennis is overly fond of an unfair advantage,hence,hiring and overpaying Matt, leaking it.
Why would a morbidly obese resident of that russian crime infested cesspool Malta,be buying the ass out of irish private healthcare ,he’s broke?
That bet so far is working out very nicely for Dennis,is g5 install behind schedule…
Where is he getting the money for all this-FG and FF ?
Every single nurse on tv and before the dail is/was will be getting their beaks wet with Dennis and Beacon-why.

Great pic of Varadkar leaving there on RTE.ie
He’s just putting on his mask as he leaves the building for the cameras

Hillarious!
But sure sitting in the centre socially distanced while wearing masks is all theatre- especially McDonald because she is friggen immune.
Where are the masks in the English House of Parliament broadcasts?
But is she immune? How long does it last?????
Speaking of the UK – is Boris still hiding?
Enlarge him and it’s creepy.
Keep an eye on the covid figures at the end of this latest lockdown. It will have made no difference.
Sure 55% of people who died in Ireland weren’t even hospitalised – Table 7

Unfortunately, they were on the way out already – that’s the only reason you don’t go to hospital :(
