In Purpose-Built Student Accommodation (PBSA), this effectively gets rid of the 2% annual increase limit, because students are always ‘willingly leaving’. Join the @CatuIreland protest on July 5th!
The student accommodation market is close to 90% private and grossly unaffordable for most people. This will have a disproportionate impact on already vulnerable students, with huge effects on mental health, student experience and education.

Housing minister James Browne concedes that, except for purpose-built student accommodation, it won’t be possible for students - or other short-term tenants like junior doctors on rotation - to have special protections from forthcoming rules on ‘rent resets’ @VirginMediaNews

I interrupted @SimonHarrisTD’s address to the Defending Freedoms conference in Dublin Castle. The minister raised the work done by Ireland for LGBT people, then I asked “what about the queer people in Gaza we facilitate the murder through Shannon Airport”

In Brussels to speak with MEP’s about protecting the right to protest - so naturally participated in the anti-fascist bloc in today’s national strike. We must demand a better world and accept nothing less.

Staff at RTÉ Dublin stood again today in solidarity with media workers under attack from Israel and in outrage at the resumed targeting and killing of Journalists in Gaza. End Israeli impunity. Killing journalists is killing truth & media freedom. #supportpalestinianjournalists

We must reject fascism in all its forms - great to see @tcddublin take a stand against this. We must go further however. Trinity must speak up for its students experiencing ongoing mistreatment at Columbia University.

Columbia University’s treatment of Trinity students must be condemned by the entire higher education sector without apology. We must not be afraid to challenge the status quo when that status quo is Fascism. @tcddublin @Columbia @emma_okelly

According to @Trinity_News, @tcddublin students in the University of Columbia have been sanctioned following pro-Palestine protests. I wrote to the Provost of Trinity College and the VP for Global Engagement to support students and reach out to @Columbia.

As the world celebrates rapists, we proudly tell them to be afraid. Support survivors, not rapists.

Support survivors not rapists. We must make rapists feel fear in every single room they enter.

TRINITY STUDENTS SPRAY PAINT CAMPANILE DEMANDING A RENT FREEZE. College refuses to commit to a rent freeze - we will escalate to the highest level if a commitment is not made. All @tcddublin students and researchers received a link to join - and over a hundred have already.

Confusing the tourists: now in Straith Pictúir form in the latest edition of the Pirhana
Today we targeted the Book of Kells. Almost every single sign, QR code and poster was targeted to confuse and frustrate tourists trying to find it Trinity must stop doing the same to the staff and students who need an accessible university Good luck finding them all @tcddublin
