It is very hard to understand this - is it really possible that the Taoiseach is unaware of the work done & Report produced by Citizens Assembly on Drugs? And the work done & Report produced by Oireachtas Committee on Drugs of which Fine Gael was a member?

If multi-millionaire Michael O'Leary is asking people to vote FG and transfer FF, what does that tell you? They are the parties that represent the multi-millionaires. We need to #VoteLeftTransferLeft to get them out and fight for a Left government that represents workers.

Having experienced homelessness and listening to this amazing mother share her experiences of being homeless with kids the last 4 years, I am filled with rage. @fiannafailparty and @FineGael have created these conditions. Vote them out for a better Ireland.

Heartbreaking How anyone can listen to this women's experience of homelessness and vote #FFg in this election is beyond me. This is going on almost a decade, it's shameful. They've been forgotten & abandoned #RteUpfront #HousingCrisis #HopeForAChange
