Horrific news emerging from Sydney. A murderous attack on its Jewish community as they meet to celebrate Hanukkah Antisemitism is never acceptable in any form - this is unbridled hate at its absolute worst. Please hold the Jewish community in your thoughts and in your hearts.

Appeasing the Far Right by pleasing the Far Right never makes sense, but it now appears to be an approach favoured by Ireland whose foreign policy seems to be set by Dept of Justice: Starmer urges Europe’s leaders to curb ECHR to halt rise of far right

Elon Musk, a South African immigrant born in Africa who votes in Texas, is annoyed that Somali immigrants born in Africa get to vote in Minnesota. There's only one thing he doesn't have in common with his fellow African immigrants in Minnesota.

Irish government speaking out of both sides of its mouth on the ECHR. This is what the Tánaiste had to say in Oxford in September. Today the Minister for Justice aligned Ireland with a group of states seeking to diminish rights protections under the ECHR. Shameless duplicity.

I see some people wondering on here what happened to @editorialz (Edward White) who often posted racist, misogynistic and hate-filled content. He won't be posting for a while because today he was jailed for sexually assaulting a 9-year old girl.

Proud to stand with @labour colleagues and LGBTQ+ activists ahead of our motion on trans healthcare this morning. Ireland consistently ranks bottom of the pile of EU Member States on standards in trans healthcare. We can and must do better for our trans community. @labourlgbtq

I addressed the Irish Oireachtas. It is a great honor for me to stand here today – in a country that understands the price of freedom better than many in Europe, better than many in the world, and that shares our belief that every voice counts, every nation matters. Please

I come from what Michael here would call a “broken home”. I can assure you I’m much happier that my abusive parent left than my parents having a fully intact marriage. People like this valuing marriage over all else, including safety of children, is why they lost in 1995 and 2015
I’m, thankfully, a child of an intact family - can’t think of a single friend from a broken home who is happy about it, yet these ads ignore the victims of divorce.

Irfan is one of the nicest kids known in Tuam; he is extremely smart and really interested in science. It is absolutely horrendous to see him attacked like this. When his parents approached Gardai a few weeks ago following this attack, they didn't want to get involved. His
A Muslim schoolboy named Irfan Uddin Gazi was brutally assaulted by teenage boys on October 16th at St Jarlath’s Collage in Tuam, Count Galway, Ireland. Police are investigating the incident as a potential hate crime and the school has suspended the students involved.

How the media works: 6 people murdered in Ukraine (2 children) and headline leads rightly with children's deaths. 100 people murdered in Gaza (35 children) but the dozens of dead children are buried in article. This is continuous and deliberate - Palestinian children lesser..
