EACH WEEKDAY EVENING, TheJournal.ie brings you five things you should know before you head out the door.

1. #ABORTION: As many politicians spent the day pouring over draft law that will legislate for the X Case there has been strong reaction from both sides of the debate with pro-life groups saying the proposals go too far and pro-choice groups saying draft does not go far enough. Meanwhile Enda Kenny has insisted that Fine Gael backbenchers will be expected to vote for the bill as one potential objector apologised for some “clumsy” comments about abortion earlier this week.

2. #SHOOTING: A man has died after a shooting at an industrial estate in south Dublin earlier today. The man in his 40s was pronounced dead at Tallaght Hospital after being shot at the Greenogue Industrial Estate in Rathcoole at 9.30am this morning.

3. #CORK: Two Cork city councillors were among a group of five people arrested this afternoon after they failed to leave a Bank of Ireland branch where they were protesting against household and water charges. Ted Tynan and Mick Barry were later released.

4. #UNEMPLOYMENT: Ireland’s unemployment rate remains at 14 per cent as just 100 fewer people signed on the Live Register last month compared to March according to CSO figures. In total 451,593 were signing on in April.
