Test tweet for my very small number of followers. I have assembled a list of links to reports of Russian atrocities which can be posted to Russian embassy in London's and Mick Wallace's Twitter accounts etc in response to the outrageous (imho) things they tweet. Interested?

A direct and obvious and uncontrovertible war crime.
Russia has begun mobilising men aged 18 to 55 in all occupied territories of Ukraine.

How do you get blocked by people you have never encountered, with whom you have no history, and in whom you have no interest? 🤷

"The ROI has long been a freeloader off the security umbrella provided by the US, the UK, and other European states – spending scarcely over 0.2 per cent of GDP on defence and foregoing Nato membership in favour of its policy of military neutrality.”
Irish influence in the US is waning, says new report from influential think-tank

If Ukrainian territory is left under Russian occupation, fascist Russia will force as many of the Ukrainians there into its army as it can and prepare for more war. Allowing continued occupation, even if there is a ceasefire, just postpones war.
🤬 Russia has officially included the occupied territories of Ukraine in the Southern Military District and will begin to mobilize the population, — Natsprotiv Russia plans to mobilize 50-100 thousand people in the occupied territories for the war against Ukraine. The category

The official propagandist of the Russian Defense Ministry and VGTRK, Alexander Sladkov, writes that Russia is "re-educating" Ukrainians, and that to re-educate them "you have to kill, and kill a lot." According to him, Russia is doing this reluctantly, didn’t even want to

In what is another blatant War Crime, Moscow has now formally folded the occupied Ukrainian territories into its Southern Military District, and will start mobilising locals for its war machine - Ukraine’s National Resistance. The Kremlin plans to force 50,000��100,000 Ukrainians

Russian losses are staggering. For an entire year, russia has been trying to capture Pokrovsk — a Ukrainian city with a pre-war population of just 60,000. In the process, it has lost around 120,000 soldiers to take barely half of it. Anyone who still believes that russia is

Some people won't take the insidious nature of the Russian Empire seriously until they are the ones risking their lives installing nets across their roads so they are not murdered going about their daily lives. #RussiaIsATerroristState
Traveling in the frontline city of Kostyantynivka is dangerous due to constant Russian drone attacks. Ukrainian soldiers risk their lives installing anti-drone nets to protect key roads and logistical points. By @radiosvoboda

Not even trying to speak English now. Russian bot
@newryhurler1 @JaneMahony Indeed Again these people are positioning themselves to slow if they cannot stop reunification. And to be in a position to then own that reunification when it comes. Corralling us into an English centric & compliant sham. They need called out at every turn. 22 can’t happen again

Ireland is not neutral. We side with our NATO allies and with Ukraine. Ireland is cheap and lazy though. We're just like that drinking buddy that will knock back pints all night but never wants to pay for a round.

Heather Humphreys’ failed bid for the Irish presidency shows that Protestants and Orange culture will never be fully accepted as part of the Irish state.

Damm right Ukraine voted against Cuba - Cuba has sent mercenaries to fight with Russian forces illegally ocupying parts of Ukraine. In every single UN vote condemmninhg the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Cuba has sided with the Russians
When the left says Ukraine is being used to pursue US imperial interests, this is an example of what we mean.

After reading Dave's post I am reminded of the words of Peter Fouché when he said "I am ashamed to be a Westerner". There is still not enough being done to support Ukraine's frontline defenders. The orcs are still advancing and I see no prospect for their advance being stopped.
I have been avoiding "X" because the 🇺🇦 I am in is nothing like Twitter 🇺🇦! I am only seeing & hearing hardship, loss & need. Does anyone believe 30 pickups a day are going into 🇺🇦. I do not. With the loss of each vehicle their is the loss of life & equipment. I am not hearing

Great piece by Stephen Collins in todays @IrishTimes regarding neutrality and defence, and the decisions 🇮🇪 will have to make in the coming years regarding same. By investing in our @defenceforces and working with others, significant improvement can be made and are necessary.
