Getting ready to march in the Budapest Pride parade. The Hungarian Government’s repeated violations of the rule of law and EU treaty principles is setting a dangerous precedent. Today we are here to send a clear message to @PM_ViktorOrban . #budapestpride 🌈🌈

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) comes into effect tomo, requiring businesses to make a wide range of products and services accessible to people with disabilities. Welcome it, but businesses need resources and funding to help them implement it.

Ní Mhurchú says politicians, farmers, and industry need to come together even more to work hard over the coming 6 months to secure Ireland’s nitrates derogation at EU level.

Reform of the Common Fisheries Policy cannot be forgotten in upcoming MFF discussions in Europe. Neither can our demand for a separate, strong, ring-fenced CAP budget. Let’s protect our food security and rural way of life. 🇪🇺🇮🇪 @NewsMurray @IFPOIreland .

I will be marching in the Budapest pride parade this coming Saturday. This is the EU, not Russia. #PrideMonth @GCNmag.
⚡️🌈Viktor Orbán’s justice minister tried to scare Western embassies from joining Saturday’s Budapest Pride, falsely claiming it’s a banned and illegal event. Organizers clarified it’s not. The minister’s letter I obtained was first reported by @viktoriaserdult for @hvg_hu. 🏳️🌈🇭🇺

"Ní Mhurchú has called for cross-party and cross-group action at EU level, to fight to retain Ireland’s nitrates derogation. According to the Fianna Fáil MEP, there is less than six months until a decision is made on the nitrates derogation.

Very important summit between the EU and Canada. The summit is an opportunity to enhance the EU-Canada strategic partnership and for leaders to reinforce their cooperation at different levels.
The summit between 🇪🇺 and 🇨🇦 has just started. The EU is Canada’s second-largest trading partner and trade in goods and services reached around €125 billion in 2024. More facts and figures 👇

Time for a strategic plan to deal with campervan tourism. We can no longer tolerate illegally parked vans at our beaches. We need facilities to cater for the growing number of campervan tourists .

Ill-judged and uninformed comments by our high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, Kaja Kallas. Disappointing.

I am deeply concerned about escalating Israeli military strikes on Iran and by Iranian attacks on Israel in response. Innocent lives are being lost – on top of the unlawful killed of 55,000 Palestinians so far. It is time for the EU, finally, to act. 🇵🇸

Today an impassioned, angry and lively debate took place in the Parliament in Strasbourg entitled :Stopping the genocide in Gaza: time for EU sanctions. This is the first time Israel's actions in Gaza have been described as "genocide".

This week in the European Parliament, I raised Waterford Airport, at the highest levels of the EU. It is time for action. I asked the EU Transport Commissioner to consider a new EU fund for regional airports.

Now, more than ever, good quality local journalism is vital to fight disinformation. We need continued funding for local media to fund court reports, investigative journalism, coverage of council meetings, & holding power to account.
