This morning.
Blanchardstown, Dublin 15
Taoiseach Leo Varadkar officially opens the Acute Stroke Unit in the Rowan Ward of Connolly Hospital.
Cute stroke unit more like.
Pause.
I’ll get my scrubs.
Meanwhile...
Mr Varadkar’s personal popularity has taken a major hit and Fine Gael has also slumped in the latest public survey.
Fine Gael (32pc) is now just five points ahead of Michael Martin’s Fianna Fail (27pc).
Meanwhile, public satisfaction with Mr Varadkar has dropped a significant seven points to 49pc since April while dissatisfaction in his leadership increased four points to 38pc.
Poll: Public becoming increasingly dissatisfied with Varadkar and Fine Gael (Indpendent.ie)
Meanwhile…
Incomes up, poverty and deprivation down again. 4th year in a row. Making progress. More to do. https://t.co/Wur7fsjGlY

Doesn’t it just boil your blood when politicians turn up for these launches, openings and turning the sod to claim credit for spending some of our money? No? Not even when they get a permanent plaque commemorating their greatness for giving back some of our money?

It’s in his constituency …
The honeymoon period is over. Personally, I do not like the style over substance angle this government has taken with handling matters. They are more concerned with handling the optics of any problem and dealing with it.
But then again what is the alternative? Sinn Fein and Labour are laughing stocks, parties on the far done away with when they welcomed stroke Fahy back with open arms in Galway. I guarantee you by next year the Galway races tent the up and running!
But he doesn’t have the time to sign off on extending the Siteserv inquiry.

Did anyone watch the Late Late Show Interview?
Tubridy mentioned Triple H
Housing
Homeless crisis
Hospital Trolleys
Varadker could not give a solution to these matters
Woeful
his hatred of the poor and the homeless will come back to haunt him..
Mimicking that boo boo Bertie’s “A lot done, more to do” election slogan.
All Leo does is stroll around trying to smile a genuine smile. What a disappointing Taoiseach.
