I've witnessed first hand the outsized level of abuse and vitriol @hazechu has to endure on a daily basis, just for having the temerity to take part in politics. This is the reality of the #IrelandIsFull crowd, and the Ireland they envision- violent, aggressive and intimidatory.

While violence or abusive language is unacceptable, it's essential to underline that being in public office inherently invites scrutiny and demands accountability. The dissatisfaction with current immigration and environmental policies is palpable, and it's likely that the electorate's verdict will be clearly seen in the next election results. Ignoring or dismissing the concerns of a significant portion of the population, who feel increasingly marginalized, does a disservice to democratic dialogue. It’s imperative for political representatives to not only listen but also address the widespread concerns that exist beyond the echo chambers of policy circles.🤔
