Great to see/hear from any TD/Party.

Spin it anyway you want. That's what she did

Which TD said they want more to work from home?

The list of names were not provided. Only that there will be no such policy allowance given to those who asked or for anyone else.

The neck of them.

So a SF TD has come out with some statement about not getting extra payment but not in response to anyone asking for payment?????

She's actually not giving 8k of her wages to the state. It has no impact on her and is not her decision.

Given that SF TD's take home only the average industrial wage (lets pretend that's true). Then the amount that she takes home is the same regardless of whether she returns 8k or 18k or 28k even.

This returning of money appears to be the case for all of the SF TDs. They have all coincidentally returned the same amount. The cynical person (read anyone with a tiny bit of cop on) might conclude that this was a party mandated decision.

Furthermore, given that she was elected apparently only as a result of being given a SF badge, she owes her salary and potential "political future" to them.
Should there be another election next month, and she was taken from the SF ticket for whatever reason, then my understanding is that her chances of getting elected as an independent (possibly running against a new SF candidate) are extremely low. So she has to play ball. She can't do a moany Claire Daly and do a runner after getting elected so as to not hand up her agreed share and expect to get elected again off her own bat.

Given that she apparently spent nearly all her 20's living on the dole and scrounging from the state, along with her partner similarly contributing, it is likely that she would not be able to match her "average industrial wage" off her own back. So she simply knows that she has to do what that central council tell her to do.

To reiterate my main point. Her giving back 8k or 16k or 0k has no actual impact on her one bit (unless of course the Shinners tell a few fibs about taking only the average industrial wage)

It would seem that not all follow the party line. https://www.irishexaminer.com/ireland/dessie-ellis-may-not-be-only-sf-td-keeping-93k-salary-471827.html

Fair play to her for handing back the money. I also think she should try make amends for her past actions. She is allowed do both.

The source is bloody SF.....its the typical propaganda s**t from them.....

Of course below the source is a lovely SF TD who just happened to be ready with a pre-written response.

Some people really need to wake up in Ireland....

I'm not even sure it can be blamed on a political party really. It's just filler. The examiner is finished.

They are making a big statement now about not taking it, nothing to stop them in 2 months time when the press has a story of going back in an getting it

Wasn't SF claiming expenses to go to Westminster while making a big statement about never going to Westminster?

She said that she’d pay rent and she didn’t. Her landlord had to go to court to get her and her family out after living rent free for years.

And if she doesn't rectify it. I'd be the first one on here to lash her out of it.

Lash away. She had no intention of ever rectifying it!

She says that she’s giving that to the State. What about her 6 years rent?

The point was she's made that deceleration. So there's no reason to think she won't stand by her word of rectifying the rent issue.

Have a little faith Mary.

How long are you going to give her?

Hard to have faith in someone who refuses to pay rent of €63 a week for 6 years?

I know but. You probably have faith in other TD's who are tearing the arse off you. You obviously give them a chance or turn a blind eye.

Why not her.

you have no problem with her thieving from a charity , depriving another more deserving family of a home and leeching off the state for her whole life yet this is the one time you ll go to town is it ? lol

you have no issue with the gemma o Doherty like crazy face book rants either ?

Can you explain how a TD or anyone could tear the arse off me?

Well it's a tricky one.

Do we know the total?

I'm not sure of her current outgoings etc.

There's a lots of ifs/buts/what have you's.

If I could ball park her current disposable income we could figure out how long it would take to save up

People are saying she's on minimum wage right?

Shefwedfan · 15-04-2020 07:15PM

Does this mean you will stop with the stupid statement about other TD looking for a raise?
