@skirteen @IrishRugby @PresidentIRL @VodafoneIreland @canterburyNZ She wasn't inaugurated until Nov 11th. Sport took second place to her commitment to prioritise visiting community care providers. Maybe next time. 😀

@SenSanders So, you finally got here, Mr. Saunders. Welcome, but I truly wish you had been braver much sooner. It might have saved lives.

Yes, the war in Gaza is a genocide.
I hope you’ll take a moment to read my op-ed here:

@ClareDalyIRL Trade Union leadership could shut down Shannon to US co-ordination of genocide in an instant. Syndicalist shibboleths!!

890 people have been arrested for demanding an end to genocide in Gaza.
To call them “terrorists” is beyond disgusting.
Shame on you and this Labour government for criminalising solidarity with the Palestinian people, while continuing to sell arms to Israel that fuel genocide.

Supporting Palestine and supporting a proscribed terrorist group are not the same thing. An honour to visit Sir Mark and @metpoliceuk to see them at work policing protests yesterday.

A reminder that 385 MP's voted for this & every LibDem, Plaid & SNP MP abstained. Only 22 MP's voted against.

The Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) is a proscribed terrorist group.
Yet its band marched through Belfast on 12 July 2025 without arrest.
Meanwhile, nearly 1,000 were detained yesterday for solidarity with Palestine Action.
The law is clearly not being applied evenly.

And again the newspapers (Sunday World) leave Catherine Connolly out of the picture. One of the two candidates officially running.

An aged lady who cannot believe there is a genocide going unanswered is arrested by 🇬🇧 police today.
Her crime. A placard saying:
“I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action"
Arrested under the Terrorism Act
A thousand people hold the same placard.

Big Ben striking 1pm in parliament square, hundreds of protesters sitting on the ground writing and unveiling signs that read quote: ‘I oppose genocide. I support Palestine action’ @novaramedia

And still not a thought for hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. How much worse it well get for this poor brutalised human being when that realisation dawns?.

@BowesChay For the English apologists, the reason why we remember is that the Cromwellian wars led to the deaths of 40% of the population through violence, famine, disease, deportation, mass land confiscation & the end of the Gaelic system, a cultural genocide, (Britain suffered a 3% loss)

All the best people turn up at agricultural shows. Great events and meeting places. Our future president is no exception and in first class company. Beir bua is beannacht.

@meganshead The countries of which they were already citizens and left, not because of oppression but because of the privileged position Zionism gave them in the territory they stole from Palestine.

What everyone needs to start asking is 'who will take 7 million Israelis in?'

Writer @MariamBarghouti describes Israel's growing military operations in the occupied West Bank, which have displaced at least 40,000 Palestinians so far. “What we are seeing is an intensified campaign aimed at annexation of the West Bank," she says.
