Australian PM ready to 'engage' with Musk on social media teen banNoneLONG-TIME TD Willie O’Dea keeps a firm grasp on his seat in the Dáil, as he is elected in the sixth count with X votes for Limerick City. The first candidate to be elected in the City constituency, the Farranshone man claimed victory at approximately 11:30pm this Saturday, November 30. Upon being elected, Mr O’Dea said: “I feel absolutely fantastic, it’s been a long count and it took six to reach the quota and I suppose that’s because of the multitude of candidates.” When asked if it would be his last time running for election, Mr O’Dea said he “never tries to anticipate the future”, but he did allude to writing a book, possibly on his life and fruitful career in politics.

He said: “In politics, it's always a very good day when you top the poll. “I canvassed from one end of the constituency to the other. I wasn't thinking of topping polls, I was just thinking of getting myself elected. “There are four seats, they all carry the same salary. I was just thinking of getting one of those. Naturally, it's the icing on the cake to top the poll.” If Mr O’Dea serves the next four and a half years of the new Dáil term, he will be the third-longest serving TD in the history of the state, surpassing former Taoiseagh Enda Kenny and Seán Lamass. Mr O’Dea represented Limerick East from 1982 to 2011 and Limerick City from 2011 to present, marking 42 years in politics. Three seats remain in the Limerick City constituency, with the seventh count getting underway on Sunday morning, as it is called a night here at Limerick Racecourse. It is predicted that Kieran O’Donnell of Fine Gael and Maurice Quinlivan of Sinn Féin will keep their seats and be re-elected, taking seats two and three of the constituency. No City candidate made the quota of 8,435 to be elected in the first count, unlike Patrick O’Donovan in Limerick County, who took back his seat with ease with a 178 surplus. One thing Mr O’Dea said that concerns him, however, was “the low turnout” of voters. “I am disappointed with it. Turnout nationally is down so far as I can ascertain. It's been slipping for the last 10 to 15 years. It shows an erosion in trust of democracy. It's a dangerous trend. “Politicians from all sides of the house will need to do their utmost to correct that trend.”casino live score 。

The US brokerage industry saw its first disruption in decades when Robinhood pioneered commission-free trading in 2013. NEW YORK - Robinhood Markets will expand into Asia next year, with its local headquarters to be in Singapore, chief executive officer Vlad Tenev said. “We plan to be serving customers across Asia soon,” Mr Tenev said on Dec 4 at the firm’s investor day in New York. The global expansion announcement comes on the heels of the US-based company entering the UK this year, offering some though not all of its trademark services to those customers. Mr Tenev also said the retail brokerage will expand its contracts offerings linked to specific events - potentially even to sports competitions - building on the firm’s success with those tied to this year’s US presidential race. Long dominated by high-profile names like Vanguard, Charles Schwab and Fidelity Investments, the US brokerage industry saw its first disruption in decades when Robinhood pioneered commission-free trading in 2013. It has been credited with bringing change to the US stock market industry by making trading of certain stocks and exchange-traded funds accessible by app 24 hours a day, five days a week. The 11-year-old trading app, which became synonymous with mom-and-pop investors in 2021, is now seeking to mature into a full-fledged financial services provider and compete with established brokerages that serve institutional investors. The company had 11.8 million monthly active users and 1.98 million premium customers, as of June 30. Robinhood’s shares climbed 3.5 per cent to $40 in New York on Dec 4. They have more than tripled this year. BLOOMBERG, REUTERS Join ST's WhatsApp Channel and get the latest news and must-reads. Read 3 articles and stand to win rewards Spin the wheel now
