Richard Boyd Barrett TD | Eighth Amendment referendum was a victory for people power

Posted in:News, Pro Choice / Repeal the 8th

Great protest in Stillorgan today demanding re-opening of Glenalbyn swimming pool. Disgraceful that Government, Shane Ross & DLR council fail to provide money for this much needed amenity! People power will deliver pool if we keep it up! @pb4p @IrishTimes @NewstalkFM @rtenews

I was on @LunchtimeLiveNT with @ciarakellydoc discussing #watercharges. Excessive use charges, proposed by the government and Irish Water, are the backdoor to full scale water charges and keep privatisation on the agenda. Listen back here-> https://t.co/lSxiVpc5sA

Will challenge @Paschald in Budget ctte today in #Dail over govt plans to increase & continue local property tax. LPT is a regressive tax that failed to deliver promised increased funding to local services or control property prices - it should go. Tax property vultures instead!
