Fianna Fáil General Election HQ, Dublin

Fianna Fail Spokesperson on Finance Michael McGrath and Spokesperson on Business, Enterprise & Innovation Robert Troy outline the Party’s proposals to tackle high insurance costs…

Fianna Fáil has pledged to increase penalties for fraudulent insurance claims and to force fraudulent claimants pay the legal expenses for defendants.

The party began the third week of the general election campaign by outlining its plans to tackle insurance costs.

Finance spokesman Michael McGrath said that Fianna Fáil would immediately call a “crisis summit” if it is in the next government and would attempt to introduce legislation to cap payouts. If this is not successful or possible the party says it would call a referendum to allow payouts to be capped.

Hmm.

*cough*

Behold: UGC 2885, also known as Rubin’s Galaxy, about 232 million light-years from us. Those bright spiky stars are actually in the foreground, toward the northern constellation Perseus, well within our own Milky Way galaxy. Rubin’s galaxy – over 200 million light years further away – is vast. To wit:

Some 800,000 light-years across compared to the Milky Way’s diameter of 100,000 light-years or so, it has around 1 trillion stars. That’s about 10 times as many stars as the Milky Way. Part of a current investigation to understand how galaxies can grow to such enormous sizes, UGC 2885 was also part of astronomer Vera Rubin’s pioneering study of the rotation of spiral galaxies. Her work was the first to convincingly demonstrate the dominating presence of dark matter in our universe.
