Barry Heneghan TD has taken to deleting and negative comments on his social media, and blocking anyone who asks him questions about his policy and how he plans to achieve anything.

First off want to state I am not talking about any sort of abusive comments here, I am not trying to condone that, I am talking about general questions being commented about his decision to join the regional group and then the goverment talks.

Last night Heneghan posted a video of him responding to a comment, the comment saying something of the line of "I didnt vote for you to prop up FFG". His response was him stating "i can get more done in goverment thats why I did it, Im doing it for Dublin Bay North not me".

There was one comment from a women pretty much saying, you didnt run on this platform and I voted for you but you've gone back on this at the first opportunity, and pointing out the housing crisis FFG are reps. Now this comment had around 70 likes which was a lot of engagement for the post as it only had around 4-5 other comments at the time.

He was in the replies stating its his belief he can do more from goverment but would refuse to say how he would do it. A friend of mine then commented and asked again how does he plan to deal with the housing crisis and he got a generic "well I can do more from govermnent and infulence Fianna Fail and Fine Gael". My friend again asked how he planned to do this and why he thought that all of a suddent Fine Gael and Fianna Fail would change policy because Barry from Dublin Bay North said so.

Barry Heneghen then deleted the comment and stopped replying. At this stage there was about 10 comments about a 50/50 mix of people praising him (that if you look on their profiles they are being followed by him) and comments critical of his decision.

This followed with around 4 comments asking why he deleted the ladies post (the one with by far the most amount of likes that was critical of his decision to join the goverment). At this stage, having seen all the negative comments he was deleting I also commented to ask why he was deleting any comments that was questioning his decision.

I got a response notification on my phone but when I went to check it, he had blocked me from his page. I messaged my friend who had also commented and he said the same, blocked.

Now again I will stress none of these comments he is deleting are abusing or insulting, most of them were either asking him about his policy and or responding to his non answers about how he "will solve the issues that are facing Dublin Bay North" but rather than elobrate on this he just blocked people.

As someone originally from that area, I know a lot of people who voted for him running as a young independant on a platform of change. Hes pissed a serious amount of young people off by jumping into bed with the people who are diving the biggest issue in Dublin Bay North, lack of affordable housing and his claiming he can "infulence" parties on this sound like a load of shite.

And deleting and blocking anyone who disagrees with him, as a politican, really shows a massive lack of maturity & emotional intelligence.

Just editing this because people seem to think this is a post about him going into goverment thats another topic completly, its not its about the fact he is blocking and deleting any comments from people who are asking how he plans to deliver the goals he is stating are his reasons for going into goverment.
