We are appalled by the government’s latest stunt of offering asylum seekers up to €10k to leave Ireland. If the government has such money, they should be spending it on legal for asylum seekers. Not surprising @MichealMartinTD @SimonHarrisTD

We pointed it out a while ago that it’s a criminal offence and they didn’t believe it.

Paul Laverty: https://t.co/lN5voKcVeO Terrific piece of work by KneeCap team on legal obligations under the Genocide Convention. Article 3 - on collusion - in a just world it would lead to the prosecution of British Cabinet.

We’ve previously made submissions to UN Committees highlighting this. 100s of asylum-seeking children have disappeared without a trace over the years and there is no urgency to address this at political leadership level. https://t.co/dq0zCGa0Cs

In the most recent inspection of the Tusla service, around 30 children were reported as missing and unaccounted for.

We're not turning a blind eye, we haven't stopped demanding sanctions on Israel for almost two years. But our government is refusing to enact the legislation, and won't end Ireland’s complicity in this genocide. That means you Tánaiste.
My statement on the #Madleen. The question we should be asking today is not the merits or otherwise of a flotilla but how the world is shamefully turning a blind eye to children starving in Gaza and to a humanitarian catastrophe

The real question you should be answering is what does Israel have to do (that they haven’t done already) for your government to impose sanctions against them?

Asylum seekers in Kilbride Army Camp Direct Provision Centre are threatened with eviction if they sign in every day. You’d think CA v Minister for Justice and Equality outlawed this practice.
