The latest work permits statistics from the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment once again indicate that the importation of employees from outside of the European Union and European Economic Area continues at only a slightly reduced scale compared to other years. A further 1,046 permits were issued in March, a fall of just 176 […]
The cost of renting in Dublin rose by 2.2 per cent in the last year, an effect of limited supply and business staff being sent to the capital by multinational companies according to the report.
The cries of “freedom to choose”, “bodily integrity” and “my body, my choice” were common refrains heard in the media up until two years ago, when politicians doubled down on their freedom and equality rhetoric at a time it was in vogue and trendy.
It’s getting hard to count the number of disasters the Minister for Health has been involved in this week, and its only Wednesday morning. At the present rate, it is entirely possible, if not likely, he’ll have single handedly bankrupted the state by Friday. First, this week, we learned what he was up to in […]
When I put this down on the list of things to write about, yesterday afternoon, the plan was simple enough: Point out how ludicrously insane this statement is, and question how in the world it ended up being allowed to go unchallenged on the national broadcaster. But then, last night, we heard that the Government […]
It’s tempting to say that London, in the video below, is “getting back to normal”. But that’s not quite right, is it? It’s standing room only in Soho this evening.

It is unlikely that many of the people taking part in the […]
Don’t expect those on the real gravy train to tackle anything other than mere trifles like social media accounts and “foreign interference”.
This weekend, in the name of safety, the Irish Government interned – without trial – a fully vaccinated man who had also provided a negative covid test, and fully intended to prevent him from going to see his dying father. The man took them to court, and, rather than allow the court to rule on […]
Professor Gerry Killeen will be familiar to readers of Gript, being, as he is, one of the leading lights in the Zero Covid campaign, and being the apparent owner of an access-all-areas pass for the RTÉ campus in Donnybrook, where he’s never off the air. Professor Killeen, like a lot of the Zero Covid types, […]
Despite the Irish elite’s fawning attitude to the American Democrats, it would seem that the Biden administration is paying them no heed.
