Subsidies for Developers: Motion [Private Members] (18 May 2022)

Thomas Pringle: I am grateful for the opportunity to speak on this motion and I thank the Social Democrats for tabling it. I believe I speak for everyone when I say the Government's decision to gift €450 million to developers is a massive slap in the face for the many in this country who are struggling with the cost of housing. Why is it always the priority of this Government to put developers...

Recent Developments in Northern Ireland: Statements (25 May 2022)

Thomas Pringle: I thank the Leas-Cheann Comhairle for the opportunity to speak in this important debate. The legacy proposals put forward by the British Government in Westminster last week were a shocking attempt to cover up the wrongdoings carried out by the British state in the North and can only be described as an insult to the people of Northern Ireland. It is clear the proposals put forward on the...

Thomas Pringle: I had planned to raise a different issue today but instead I want to mention that when I had to go out for something earlier, I was shocked to see tents that are used by homeless people for shelter being removed from the area outside Agriculture House on Kildare Street.
