#BlueSkyDays Sometimes the stars align so that your work day feels less ‘worky’ and you get to witness your pals showcasing their expertise at the ‘worky’ bit and then you ALSO get to have a lunchtime dander around the glorious walled garden with @alexadotm.bsky.social and Dr Ciara Fitzpatrick

I'm so grateful to @irishnews.com for letting me get these things off my chest, because while nobody should be threatening elected reps, nor should they be careless with their words about the rest of us.

Shocker! Media and political narrative rarely align with the evidence based facts. Most people want to work. Most people would like to be able to afford the basics for themselves and their families.
