Duke of Devonshire's exclusive Mayfair bookshop occupied as fury grows over his decision to raise rents to Irish farmers from ยฃ500 to ยฃ5,000 His ancestors stole this land in 1753; this mad rent rise will force farmers off land that they have cultivated for hundreds of years







A few years ago, my husband โ a cycling enthusiast โ invested almost $300 in a โbuilt to lastโ balance bike from @LittleBigBikes for our kids, specifically because parts could be replaced over time. Today, as our youngest needs new pedals and brakes, the company refuses to ship to Israel. Not to a government โ to customers. Companies are, of course, free to take political positions. But refusing to serve individuals based solely on where they live is not a โpeace stance.โ Itโs collective exclusion and discrimination. People who oppose boycotts should know where this company stand.







Parts of Gaza, Lebanon and Iran are being flattened. Thousands of innocent children have been killed. Millions of people displaced. And before anyone says โBut, Hamas, HezbollahโโฆImagine if Britain had done the same to Ireland after the IRA bombings? You cannot justify this.


Abubaker Abed is a Palestinian refugee living in Ireland. Abed has used his newfound safety to urge Irish Muslims to support #Hamas, call for Israel and its citizens to be wiped out, and threaten Irish Jews with violence. Why is the Irish state protecting this genocidal jihadist?

United Nations (UN) report states that Hamas committed sexual violence, including rape, gang rape, and sexualized torture of women during the terror attacks on 7th October 2023 in Israel. Hamas terrorists also raped corpses (dead bodies).
