The women who had been resident and worked in the Magdalene laundries had been done a severe disservice by the state. They were women who were forced to work against their will and who were effectively detained against their will’ Peter Tyndall #ombudsman #irelandsdirtylaundry

I haven't done very much in life, how am I going to give my children an education that I haven't got? And then that started to really upset me And it was just one night, I just took a load of tablets I said they're better off without me Maureen # O’Sullivan #irelandsdirtylaundry

Part 2 of Ireland's Dirty Laundry on @RTEOne now! Tough but important watching #irelandsdirtylaundry

‘We're runners. We're always, always on the run. Security is not something that we know, being loved is not something that we know’ Deirdre Cadwell #irelandsdirtylaundry #lifetrauma

Part 2, @RTEOne tonight 9:35pm #IrelandsDirtyLaundry focuses on the story of the Magdalene Laundries, shedding light on one of the darkest parts of Ireland's recent history. Edit @nandoedit Dir @gearoidgregg Prod @NewDecadeFilms #Audiopost #Grade #Online #Finishing High Wire

‘I met a guy, we had a relationship He abused me anyway he could, but I didn't know thatcould have reported it to the police I just thought this was normal behavior. We all grew up with being walloped or slap. I just thought he was normal’ Gabrielle O’Gorman #irelandsdirtylaundry

#IrelandsDirtyLaundry the first time I have considered we were lucky to have England as a back door

The thing that shocked people about my story was that it was recent. It wasn't a different world. It was today's world and it was still happening. #IrelandsDirtyLaundry

‘My client was not at a position in her life where she had enough time and so she made the decision she would have to settle for what was on offer and move on with her life The state lives forever The victims of the Magdalene laundry will not’ Simon McGarr #irelandsdirtylajndry

You go to meet somebody that you've heard about but never met And you're also related to them in the most close way, there's so many perceptions you have in advance And they were all absolutely smashed when I walked in the door of the Gresham’ Samantha Long #irelandsdirtylaundry

This place to me was hell. My name is Theresa Doyle. #IrelandsDirtyLaundry

Some of them would get away free and some of them would be lifted. They'd be brought back. #IrelandsDirtyLaundry

‘I had a girl and things happened. She died like before I was really due. And in England then I lost twins. They were nearly due too. There's days I get up at home and I cry and I cry’ Betty Buckley #irelandsdirtylaundry #intheirownwords

‘I found that in England, I could be open and honest We were so broken at this stage that we just didn't care and all we wanted to do, me anyway, and a lot of the women, went to England just to get out of Ireland and get away from it all’ Maureen Sullivan #irelandsdirtylaundry

‘England for me was my savior. It was my freedom away from the Catholic church, the nuns and the state we had, no, we really were kind of very alienated from the Irish people’ Gabrielle O’Gorman #irelandsdirtylaundry #survivorstestimony

Was England good to me? Yes I've had ups and downs don't get me wrong, but I got an education. I did a degree. I was lucky. I married a good English man. My children were born in England, they're not Catholic And I'm very proud to say that’ Elizabeth Coppin #irelandsdirtylaundry

‘When I decided enough was enough, I asked my friend can I please stay with you? I'll do whatever I have to do… because I couldn't go back. I was suffocating. And if I'd stayed there much longer, I probably would've died there’ Deirdre Cadwell #irelandsdirtylaundry

‘Some Sundays we'd be allowed out to go walking And some of the girls would disappear and wouldn't come back Some of them get away free and some of them would be lifted like to be brought back. It was terrible to see them crying and everything’ Betty Buckley #irelandsdirtylaundry
