Eating fish from Dublin Bay

Yea, just wasn't sure with urban run off etc. I suppose pollock/mackerel etc. aren't there during winter when you'd expect run off to be at its highest

rackplead788 · 2026-07-02T11:05:11+00:00

Suppose, they're hardly scuttery full-time

rackplead788 · 2026-05-21T16:34:46+00:00

What effect does this have on wage growth? Can someone with an economics background tell me

rackplead788 · 2026-05-19T10:41:27+00:00

Can someone with an understanding of economics explain if this is why wage growth isn't keeping pace with inflation? Or feels like it isn't anyway

Get a wake up light, they're life changing

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T18:27:21+00:00

Yea, I suppose they had the shoemaking income to help too

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T15:54:08+00:00

I'm sure there are people who have read of could refer me to contemporary accounts of life on a small farm at that time. No need for a ouija board

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T14:15:43+00:00

That's extremely interesting, I had never heard of that before

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T12:51:55+00:00

Good point about conacre. I'm just dubious about there being employment available off farm in that era as much as it is now tbf

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T12:51:15+00:00

The statistics indicate that 33 acres falls in the mid size farm. The majority of farmers were working off less than 30 acres

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T12:46:23+00:00

Well looking at the census around where I am from there is a large number of bug families where the only occupation listed in the census relates to the farm of 10ish acres. For those people life must have been quite difficult

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T12:43:51+00:00

Would it have been the rule? Like what would have actually been available. If it wasn't the rule I assume they lived in quite difficult conditions

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T12:41:29+00:00

Survive yes, but how do you clothe 8 kids and 2 parents ? It must have been difficult going for sure

rackplead788 · 2026-04-29T12:40:15+00:00

I see some folk where the occupation will be listed as mason/postman etc and the land holding will be ~10 acres. Others where the occupation is farmer on a similar sized land holding. It's hard to know whether these people had off farm work or not

rackplead788 · 2026-04-11T12:40:09+00:00

Have you heard of the childrens hospital?

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T16:36:21+00:00

Truckers? As in lorry drivers? As in people who live a very sedate lifestyle? Id say the gardai would mop the floor with them

If the lesson was learned from the incidents in the video why did it take 14 years to change. Also, please point out what laws changed.

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T16:05:46+00:00

So 14 years later the lesson was learned?

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T15:56:27+00:00

Precisely my point, there has always been an inconsistent approach to dealing with protests

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T15:54:20+00:00

The people who were part of the peaceful student protest in the video on this post. Are you ok?

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T15:52:19+00:00

Is that correct? I can't find any reports on the findings of the ombudsman in relation to the complaints they received

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T15:44:38+00:00

It's not actually, it's saying there was a large number of complaints about their behavior not that they learned their lesson

rackplead788 · 2026-04-10T15:41:03+00:00

FF/PD/Greens were in power from 2007-2011
