Delighted to welcome Min. @peterburkefg to the heart of European democracy in #Strasbourg tonight.
An important event to mark 50 years of Ireland’s membership of the EU - remembering the work of all 110 Irish MEPs over the last 50 years.

Great to meet up with the 🇮🇪 community in the EP to celebrate our nation’s 50 years of 🇪🇺 membership.
Bumped into former President of the @europarl_en Pat Cox & wonderful to discuss how much Ireland & the EU have transformed each other.
Ireland’s place is at the ❤️ of Europe

The escalation of war in #Ukraine is caused by Russia.
Blaming Ukraine for escalation when they are fighting for their families, homes, communities, country is bizarre.
The withdrawal of Russian troops voluntarily or by force is what is needed to de-escalate the conflict.

@Khayden2412 @fiannafailparty @RenewEurope The figure of c. €240m was revised down a number of years ago. Still, €10m a month is still a waste

@Khayden2412 @fiannafailparty @RenewEurope Hi Karl. It’s about €120 million annually - we go to Strasbourg 12 times per year so about €10 million/week. It’s a waste of money & @fiannafailparty MEPs repeatedly vote for having only one seat.
Unfortunately the Treaties stipulate the official seat is in Strasbourg.

Managing rare diseases requires a pan-EU approach. A #EuropeanHealthUnion will be an important part of supporting patients and their families.
