Fine Gael MEP Regina Doherty claimed in private messages that “Israeli settlements were conducted under international law” and expressed frustration that Hamas had asked the UN to look after Palestinian refugees instead of “their own bloody government”. ontheditch.com/fine-gael-mep-…

@sahouraxo Who in the world is going to stop these depraved Israeli Zionists? Trump is not interested while the UN is toothless! And Ireland is actually about to allow them play football in Dublin. Genocidal maniacs let loose by Netenyahu!

Israel destroyed the statue of Jesus Christ in the Christian village of Debel, South Lebanon. Now they’re bulldozing the solar panels that provide electricity and water. Not military targets. Critical infrastructure. This is the deliberate targeting of civilian life.

@18for0 @DeptCEE When will Ministers wake up to realise Wind is a commercial scam. The Irish Times accepts paid for Ads from the advocates of wind. Time to start looking at the possibilities for safe Nuclear energy and to start building now. Fossil fuel and gas are done. Trump has seen to that?

Will the @DeptCEE outline how Ireland's EU Presidency will support member states seeking to expand nuclear energy capacity within the Union's energy transition framework — or will the Government's own position on nuclear energy influence decisions taken during its Presidency?
Department of Climate, Energy and the Environment@DeptCEE

The first day of the WindEurope 2026 conference in Madrid offered an insight into the government's ambition and delivery on wind energy, as it prepares to take over the EU Presidency in the wake of a global energy crisis. 🌬️ 🍃 Read more here: bit.ly/4mDvue8

@Parodyjeffx They are the scum of the earth and my government still wants to trade with them. Also to allow their sports teams play with decent people in Dublin next month? It should not be allowed. You can't play with Israel while their IDF do this kind of shit! Wake up Michael Martin!

Imagine being a Palestinian running a small bakery in the West Bank. Then the Israeli IDF appears. They storm in, trash everything, drag you out, and disappear you. Your life erased in minutes.

@BrendanM56 Reminds me of two cases in the West of Ireland, where whistelblowers were punished. One involved overmedicating at a hospice!

This is a horrific story. Whistleblowers in Ireland are likely to be villified while wrongdoers are seldom held to account.
Julie Grace | #localgov | #whistleblower | #rights@celticjulie

@BarryLenihan @drivetimerte Absolutely disgraceful, disgusting and abusive treatment of a fair-minded and ethical #whistleblower in the Irish health service. Have you any humanity to intervene and help this situation, Minister @CarrollJennifer #abuseofpower #penalisation #victimisation #womeninpolitics

President Connolly’s first trip overseas has offered a signal of how she plans to use the presidency on the world stage. Her appearance at a left-leaning summit in Barcelona places Ireland among more outspoken global voices on war and international law jrnl.ie/7017225

@VillageMagIRE Catherine will continue to surprise, as she also did her stint in City Hall, Galway. Of course it is great to see her first visit is to Spain which has a PM unafraid to upset Trump, as our version continues to hide under a stone. His time is running out!

The insidious conservatism of the Irish Times. Uncritically reporting craven, anonymous mutterings of civil servants and unnamed sources in a government that was always hostile to, & was always going to be less radical than, this President & her mandate. irishtimes.com/politics/2026/…

@WestOnTrackIRL @Entirl @IrishExporters Scrap metal now exported through Galway Port, in the middle of our city, could be transfered to rail connected Foynes Port via railfreight which is right beside Galway Metals Depot located in Oranmore. Why waste diesel trucking it into the city when alternative is beside them???

Israel just blew up a public high school in Marwahin, South Lebanon. Not a military base. A school.

@BrendanM56 This woman once resigned from a very prominent position in RTE. That is why they have forgotten Lelias name. Shame on them for being the cowards they are!

@WestOnTrackIRL We now need the Gluas LRT to distribiute all the new passengers and visitors arriving in Galway, users of the expanded Ceannt Station who now need access to better public transport once they get off their train?

@JimmystaffordDJ @davidmcw And that is mostly in Dublin. If McWilliams looked to the West he would find much more government waste. Just look at Galways RR - more than 45m wasted on plans for a road that is to become Galways version of the M50. Uisce Eireann yet to start planning for long overdue 2nd WWTP?

This is a must read from @davidmcw “Is Ireland the worst run country in Europe?” The figures in this article are mind blowing . No accountability in the Senior echelons of Public Service. No wonder people are angry. #fuelprotests

@BrendanM56 Didn't do too much to advance cancer treatments when Minister for Health. But signed off on a chaotic National Childrens Hosp, with no budget, in the wrong location!

@thejournal_ie Why is M Martin not on the phone to Trump and Netenyahu to ask them to stop bombing innocent Iranians and Lebanonese people. Their war is responsible for our chaos,is not justified or is it legal!

@McNeillYeah Got that right Eh Fintan? The only thing wrong now is that Catherine is not in the Dail today to paste Mehole and Harris for their putrid support for Trump, in allowing his troops to use Shannon!

Iranians are forming human chains on bridges — standing together against threats of destruction. This is today on the White Bridge in Ahvaz, Iran. Trump and Israel’s criminal war has united all of Iranian society — every faith, every class — in defense of their homeland.

Says man helping enable said energy crisis by allowing Irish airspace and airports to be used by US military who caused the energy crisis in the first place by illegally bombing Iran. Meanwhile RTE just uncritically reports Simon Harris inane utterances. Utter madness.

It is painful to see what Israelis are doing to the Palestinians -soldiers, settlers, security, police, very tangibly. This is not a war. It is to torture a people: physically and psychologically. And it is part of their erasure.
Taoufiq TAHANI@TaoufiqTahani

Avec une cruauté inouïe, des soldats israéliens se relaient pour passer à tabac un jeune palestinien près du camp de « Qalandia », au nord de Jérusalem occupée. C'est ça la conception occidentale du "droit d'Israël à se défendre"

"Israel wants to live in peace with its neighbours" is the biggest lie of all time. This is the West Bank. No Hamas, no war, yet attacked like this daily by "settlers" backed by the IDF. A savagely violent Jewish supremacy armed by the EU/UK/US
