https://www.uplift.ie/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/MyUplift-banner-politician-SVG.svg The current franchisee of the post office in Leixlip village relocates to another premises in Barnhall on 13th September, 1km away from the Village. An Post must give a commitment to appoint a postmaster and retain an operating Post Office in Leixlip Village to facilitate the town in the existing premesis. A New site in Confey could be considered to cater for the lar epopulaiton and the expected rise in population figures over the coming years.  Our Post Office has been established for decades. It is part of the social, economic and cultural heritage of Leixlip. It is a landmark site in our town centre, which creates footfall, vitality and viability at this location.  Leixlip registered the highest commercial vacancy rate in Kildare at 15.9%. A loss of a Post Office will fuel this rise in vacancy. An Post must support this village and the businesses investing in it.

My name is Ferry Ediagbonya. After seven years living in a direct provision centre in Co Meath, myself, my wife and our five children have recently received notice that we are going to be moved to another direct provision centre in Co Mayo. The distress this is causing to my wife and children is unbearable. I work in Dublin, and I will lose my job if we are relocated. Our five children will have to leave their schools and all of their friends behind.  I am pleading with Roderic O'Gorman, the Integration Minister, to do whatever he can to reverse this decision. My family's future and welfare is on the line. For the sake of our children, please don't make us leave our home and the community we know and love so well. 

Two companies called Turas Nua and Seetec have a state contract to help unemployed people find jobs. They have made millions in profit from this contract. The experiences of unemployed people referred to them via JobPath has not been good - something widely acknowledged. If the Minister for Employment Affairs & Social Protection Regina Doherty hears from hundreds of her tax paying constituents that we want action to scrap this sham of a programme, it could be enough to push her into seriously reviewing JobPath.
