RT @mickthehack: Ex-Dublin Bus mechanic syphoned €147 diesel from Dublin Bus into his van https://t.co/5jf2sR66Fg
What's crazy is that RTE even does this to the Independent.
It’s only because of The Ditch that details of rogue spinal operations on children emerged in 2023.

Shameful suppression of proper journalism. https://t.co/AS9jkCzlfk
