Elsewhere, Fórsa took part in yesterday's social media campaign with Justice for Colombia, while Kevin Callinan pledged his support to the Moore Street Preservation Trust plan.
Tom McDonnell of the Nevin Economic Research Institute is the Congress nominee to the Government’s new Commission on Taxation which is to provide strategic advice to the Government, and look at new ways to raise sustainable revenue over the next 20 years.
In other Congress news, general secretary Patricia King has written to the Tánaiste to say "ICTU cannot and will not support the Government’s plans to cut the income of some of the lowest income workers in the State.

Zen
Your Zen moment is a tip in case the weather turns this weekend and you're looking for a bit of telly entertainment. The third and final season of The Kominsky Method is now available on Netflix. It reunites Kathleen Turner with Michael Douglas, and there's a clutch of great cameos in there for all tastes. It's warm and funny but biting and acerbic too. And Kathleen Turner swears in my favourite bit of the trailer. It's good stuff.
