A number of incidents over recent days of male impersonating a Garda. Householders didn't engage due to having received previous text alerts. Keep vigilant and report. Community Text Alert works if used effectively and collaboratively. Working together prevents crime.

I will get in trouble for saying this but all chatter from those that are not police officers about how we should police and getting heavy handed with those involved in anti social behaviour obviously haven't to consider their careers when looking down the barrell of a

I actually think all this rhetoric might be helping the @gardainfo recruitment campaign. #ItsAJobWorthDoing is truer more than it ever was. Policing has become more of a challenege and has become harder in the past 20 years. On another note Street Art when used in the right

Couldn't careless what may be said next but this madness within my organisation has to stop. The ego's reigned in and the militancy curtailed. Some have forgotten what policing is about through promotions while others forget that sticking to a rigid point is pointless. Let's

I'd rather drink a craft beer especially @Ballykilcavan than a certain Dutch beer that's overpriced and doesn't agree with me. Keep up the fight.

Ballykilcavan brewery is just 2.5km from the site of the Electric Picnic ( @EPfestival ), but we are not allowed to serve our beers there. The festival claims to be sustainable, but despite our three national sustainability awards, we're still not allowed in. Here's why.

So last night was the first night I wore our new Garda uniform and by god did it get a good testing. About 20 degrees at start of tour dropped to about 10 overnight with heavy rain. Be interested in views on it. Practical uniform. Think it shrunk in bag though😉🤭

As a serving Garda, I am yet again deeply angered by Paul Moody's actions. We strive for integrity, and he has failed us all. His actions cast a shadow over our commitment and tarnish the trust we work so hard to build. We must stand for better. #IntegrityMatters #GardaStandards

@Mick_Finnegan Public representation is probably one of the toughest gigs out there , and life is under a microscope . I would even go as far as to say it's a thankless job now. Local councillors to TD. Boundaries no longer exist, and society is so much more of a challenge. Think long and hard
