Always read beyond the headline.

I am passionate about Irish neutrality. Sinn Féin in government will seek to enshrine the principle in the constitution and within EU treaties.
FF & FG governments have clearly attempted to undermine that neutrality over the past 2 decades 1/3

ECB have announced another hike in interest rates, it will bring many struggling Irish families to the brink.
Meanwhile, FF & FG have rejected Sinn Féin’s proposals to support those families with mortgage interest relief.

Mortgage rates have risen 6 times since last July, & are due to rise again soon, causing huge distress to many families.
Tonight SF brought a motion to Dáil calling for introduction of mortgage interest relief to give those families a break.
Government opposed the proposal 🤷‍♂️
