Louise we here at ITA wish you well. We have had great support from the @irishexaminer in our quest for justice and closure on so many occasions by their great writers.
Some personal news! After a great few years at the Mirror, I am starting with the @irishexaminer as a Political Correspondent today. Looking forward to working with a great political team over what will be a busy few months . New email in bio and DMs, as ever, open.

The 40th anniversary of Live Aid reminds us that we Irish are unsurpassed at donating to charitable causes. So why do we leave so many injustices unresolved?

TO REMEMBER .IS TO CARE. Sadly Leigh Gath, Mum Peggy Murphy and now Jacqui Browne have been added to the Thalidomide Memorial Roll Call 2025. We will never truly know how many have been lost worldwide over 60 years. We remember all 🙏 and ask you to think of them too.

Our thalidomide family are grieving the loss of a great friend and campaigner Jacqui Browne. Trying to come to terms with it before we comment and wish to support Jacqui’s family at this sad time. But great to see others tell it like it is.

Sending our deepest respect and kind wishes to Catherine Corless, and all involved, as the excavations for dignity starts. And strength to those who will do this important work. Irelands shameful treatment of its children has left many broken. Portrait @PaulMacCormaic

Thalidomide Dads are fondly remembered today for all their work on the campaign in the 60’s and beyond. They wouldn’t believe the story still goes on. @fiannafailparty @FineGael @OireachtasNews

Birthday greetings to another great campaigner Ger Kilduff. Still waiting far too long to be acknowledged by the State. Ger was amazing on the Thalidomide documentary last year ❤️.
