Govs advised of legal risk of investing in settlements as they exist on stolen land. This complaint makes this a reality. This is an int'l warning to banks lawyers & accountants who have strict “due diligence” obligations to identify whether clients are handling proceeds of crime

Today @GLAN_LAW @alhaq_org & @SadakaIreland made a first complaint of its kind under proceeds of crime law to Ireland’s Criminal Assets Bureau over Ireland Strategic Investment Fund’s (ISIF) investments in companies supporting Israeli war crimes: glanlaw.org/proceeds-israe…

I'm very proud of the work @ChristianAidIrl does standing up for Palestinian rights. Our work with partners in IOPT to highlight & challenge injustice isn't going to be deterred - and I'm glad this case is finally out in the open. Onwards. 🇵🇸 theguardian.com/global-develop…

@verapauw Incredible strength. There is no "what I failed to do", but only power in your sharing of this torture. Fingers crossed you get the accountability you absolutely deserve. Legend Vera

This has been the toughest thing in my life but, finally, I'm ready to move on and be proud of who I am Vera 💚

Congratulations to @BradfieldPaul @NUIMerrionSq and to @nmagugliani @IrishResearch on PhD conferring @IrishCentreHR - in person celebrations will follow soon I hope @NUIGLaw

Tánaiste @LeoVaradkar makes a claim here that warrants addressing. Dismissing the Occupied Territories Bill, he suggests bias: "there are other occupied territories in the world, but people have so little to say about them. It's remarkable." @GaryGannonTD twitter.com/GaryGannonTD/s…

@BHRIblog @GLAN_LAW @IrishCentreHR @NUIGLaw Thanks Shane, appreciate the invitation and really enjoyed the Q&A after!

The orders were only following orders according to @ArchbishopEamon rte.ie/news/mother-an…

@DonalkCoffey @rtenews @eoinmauricedaly @LaurCah @dkennytcd @TomHickeyDCU Many thanks @DonalkCoffey. Surely if a Min were to positively mislead the Cabinet as to (non-)existence of other applications, that'd frustrate ability to act as collective authority. Is knowingly withholding such info from Taoiseach/majority of Mins much different. Fascinating!

@gerry_liston @rtenews @eoinmauricedaly @LaurCah @dkennytcd @TomHickeyDCU Hi Gerry, we had a conversation about this a couple of days ago: twitter.com/LaurCah/status…

Taoiseach Micheál Martin says he was satisfied with Seamus Woulfe’s appointment to the Supreme Court when the relevant authorities deemed him suitable for the role. | Read more #politics: bit.ly/3pGftpR

@LaurCah How can the Cabinet, acting as a collective authority, properly discharge its function of advising the Pres as to appointment of SC judge when Taoiseach/most of Cabinet unaware of expressions of interest from existing judges? Is validity of SW appointment in doubt?

What about asking the Tánaiste to answer questions on it - since he was involved since the beginning of the timeline? McEntee seems to have been involved only at a very late stage.

For more context to this @IrishTimes article, see my analysis on @SadakaIreland website here: sadaka.ie/BRIEFING-Sadak… There must now be a clear commitment to enacting the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill in the #Prog4Govt @MichealMartinTD @EamonRyan @simoncoveney irishtimes.com/news/politics/…

Delighted to see this case getting off the ground yesterday. Shocking that we have to take a case to stop Europe incentivising trade in goods produced with #forcedlabour. Find out more below and please support our crowdfund here: crowdjustice.com/case/uzbekcott…

Wondering is it legal for Ireland to ban trade with illegal Israeli settlements? Well read the legal arguments in this excellent letter to the @IrishTimes from @gerry_liston of @SadakaIreland #Palestine #SettlementGoods @frances_black irishtimes.com/opinion/letter…

Attacks Causing Grave Civilian Harm – a new series of open-source investigations by @Bellingcat into Saudi/UAE airstrikes in Yemen. All of the incidents, which occurred between 2015 and 2019, caused civilian casualties - often in very high numbers bellingcat.com/news/mena/2019… 1/9
