It's been 106 days since I have stepped foot in Harvey's room. It was the 1st thing I did when I got home this evening. I hugged his wheelchair and I cried. Yes, we will see #JusticeForHarvey and all of the innocent children failed by the state ✊

Our Coast Guard SAR crews risk their lives in the most dangerous conditions imaginable to save others at sea. They deserve proper protection, not loopholes and corner-cutting. https://t.co/OKMZW9JAEy

Miriam O’Callaghan’s claim that Gaeilgeoirí in the North were “weaponising” Irish reveals a deeper RTÉ mindset. It’s the establishment, not Irish speakers, that treats our language as something to fear. Read the full column: [ https://t.co/5CIfWNOky0] #RTE #Gaeilge

Just heard Fine Gael TD (and working barrister) Barry Ward on RTÉ Radio One - he gave a long Dáil speech on migration few weeks back, referencing migration law amongst other things and at no point disclosed that he was simultaneously acting in a criminal trial in that space

The logic of what FG are saying about Catherine Connolly’s work as a Barrister is that the current Minister for Justice should be accountable for the actions of clients he worked for as a barrister. @OCallaghanJim must explain if he agrees with this desperate line of attack.

Fine Gael must think people are stupid as they scrape the bottom of the barrel with their smears against Catherine Connolly. It’s Fine Gael who refused to build public housing as they rolled out the red carpet for vulture funds. It’s Fine Gael who pushed home ownership out of

SF has played a blinder. FF, FG & many in the media mocked Mary Lou McDonald for her “game-changer” announcement on the Irish presidential election. But the party's decision not to run & to back Catherine Connolly has been truly transformative.🧵(1/2) https://t.co/ky9vwcdOey

This do nothing government are doing all they can to block accountability in the Dáil next week ahead of the vote for President. They have cut our Dáil time in half with no votes that could embarrass them on Wednesday. A blatant attempt to silence the opposition, fooling no one.

Not every parent has the capacity or strength to take on the State — many are exhausted, dispirited and worn down. The Government is wearing them down, and that is shameful https://t.co/oQtrsJYurQ

🚨The reckless overfishing of mackerel has been rewarded by the European Union rather than punished again and again. Now our Irish fishing fleet who followed the rules and the science are facing ruin. This is a precious and shared resource that the EU has allowed to collapse 🚨

This is shocking! Fianna Fail’s Presidential candidate Jim Gavin says on Israel’s war crimes in Gaza, “It’s unconscionable that the bombing is still taking place when I believe that the military objectives have probably been reached for that military campaign.” This is a

Government take note: this strike will only be resolved by getting around the table. Lovely to have school secretaries and caretakers drop into my office today for a tea break while protesting in Dungarvan. Full support from me and @sinnfeinireland @forsa_union_ie

Germany’s support for Israel — despite genocide and mass civilian slaughter — is indefensible. Peaceful protestors, including an Irish citizen assaulted in Berlin, are being targeted for speaking out. My message to the German Ambassador: https://t.co/cJn30cvZBP

Solidarity with school secretaries & caretakers as they begin indefinite strike action ✊ FF/FG/Ind Govt offer only empty words while doing nothing - refusing even to talk. On the picket line in Cappoquin today with Cllr Donnchadh Mulcahy — Sinn Féin stands with these workers.
