When you have an anti-immigrant protest but you didn't think it through.

@Independent_ie He also defends his threat to bring in the army on cost of living protesters. So remember, what they'll do to immigrants today they'll do to you tomorrow.

@kevintoconnor People Before Profit won't trade women's rights for a first, second or any other preference.

@paulmurphy_TD @PaulLaneLLM Don't become one of "them" especially when many SFers are talking about giving Eoghan Ó'Ceannabháinn a 2nd pref in Dublin Central.

Shamefully the Dáil votes to continue to force women in tragic circumstances to travel to access abortions. The vast majority of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael despite a free vote joined Aontú and Independent Ireland against abortion rights. Sinn Féin abstained on women's rights.

@MichealMartinTD @GovIE People with disabilities: We urgently need the €1400 you took off is in the budget. Martin: lol no. Let's have a summit.

Very important summit today on the Cost of Disability. Over 1,000 organisations have made submissions. We are committed to making progress in supporting people with disabilities across all strands of life.

You didnt think it was possible but it turns out Fianna Fáil could have had an even worse presidential election candidate. That's a strong bench of utter gobshites they've got there.

Bertie the bankers' man wants you to blame Africans for the problems Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael have created so that they can keep enriching their landlord and developer mates. Disgustingly transparent.

PBP byelection candidate Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin has submitted an ethics complaint about an alleged breach by Ray McAdam. It relates to McAdam's alleged use of an official car provided to him as lord mayor to attend an event as a byelection candidate. jrnl.ie/7037215f

Shook my entire belief system when I first heard it.

That's the angle, right there 👌

Huge numbers of people out for Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin in Dublin Central yesterday. There is now real momentum behind our campaign. More and more people are saying that they want to vote left and understand that the most effective left vote is 1 for Eoghan and transfer left.

@Keir_Starmer You embody this era of debased democracy.

It’s important that we reflect and respond to these results - we haven’t done enough to offer people hope for the future. In the coming days I’ll be setting out the path ahead.

Some great news! We've just heard back from RTÉ that we are now being included in the final debate of the campaign, the Radio 1 debate on Friday May 15th. Fair play to every single person who signed our petition and supported Eoghan getting on the debate.

Brought her coffee "in the wrong mug". Mood tense. More later.

So @rte devised the criterion for coverage of Dublin Central by-election candidates in a way that includes filthy racist misogynist Steenson in radio & TV debates but excludes People before Profit candidate Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin. I signed this petition: pbp.ie/petition-launc…

This would be €2,200 a month to rent in Rathmines

The decision to exclude Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin from the Dublin Central debates just doesn’t make sense. In Galway West, 9 candidates are going head to head in debates, while in Dublin Central only 8 are being given a chance to put forward their perspective.

Once again Collison brothers' "think tank" driving policy in Ireland.

Fianna Fáil Nua.

We are appealing to RTÉ to reverse the decision to exclude Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin from all RTÉ debates during their coverage of the Dublin Central By-Election. All of the other eight viable candidates are included in at least one debate, yet Eoghan is excluded from all three.
