What kind of weirdo is taking photos of school toilets?
Estelle Birdy Booky Thingies@BirdyBooky
These are the toilets in Harold’s Cross Educate Together Secondary School. Fully open to the corridor and with male and female symbols on every single door. The school has, helpfully, laminate a couple of pieces of paper with arrows written on them saying ‘Male’ and ‘Female’. The only sinks are in the middle of the floor with no wall between them. I suppose the laminated signs are the school’s attempt at a compromise as there was uproar from the students a couple of months ago when plans revealed that every single toilet block and cubicle is mixed sex. Only people who are completely oblivious to the needs and desires of teenage girls especially, for privacy and dignity would make teenage girls share toilet facilities with teenage boys like this. It’s either ignorance or something more sinister - a complete disregard for the rights of half of the population. Educate Together my arse. What about girls and boys from countries, cultures and religious backgrounds for whom these shared facilities will be entirely unacceptable? They will self-exclude from schools like this. Everywhere where mixed sex facilities have been imposed on teenagers like this, girls have ended up physically ill because they will stop drinking water during the day because they won’t use these facilities. @hcetss @Education_Ire @1Hildegarde Why have exclusionary toilet facilities been adopted in this publicly funded school?

The idea that Bruno Fernandes wins PFA Player of Year over @_DeclanRice is preposterous. Rice should win the Ballon d’Or too, he’s been the best player in Europe.

Ray McAdam Accused of Blocking Hundreds on Social Media.
Dublin Lord Mayor and Fine Gael candidate Ray McAdam is facing criticism for allegedly blocking hundreds of users on X, including many constituents from Dublin Central and his North Inner City ward.
Critics claim the blocks target people questioning Fine Gael’s record on housing and the cost of living crisis, as well as McAdam’s taxpayer funded luxury trips such as business-class flights to San Jose and stays at high end hotels in Antibes.
The issue has intensified during his campaign for the May 22, 2026, Dublin Central by-election.
Opponents accuse him of avoiding accountability, with some calling him a “coward” for silencing critics. McAdam’s account remains active with positive posts on local issues, but he has not publicly addressed the blocking allegations.
Supporters view the complaints as typical election- year partisan attacks no doubt.
The controversy adds to ongoing scrutiny over his use of public funds.

Why don’t you say what party you represent? Because you know the people have turned on them. You are vying for votes hoping people don’t realise who you really represent.

If a foreigner does this in your country, it’s not only a show of force, but he’s expecting you to accept and adopt his culture. He’s not a refugee. By definition, he’s an invader. People should wake up!

When I was 21, three guys beat up my bf for being a fucking gay/'qu*re'/'pedo' etc when we left a pub. They didn't touch me. Turns out one of the guys was one of my sister's boyfriend and another my cousin.
My parents did the 'right thing' by ringing social services as that...

5 years?
According to the CSO the average foreign homebuyer has been living in Ireland for 6 years. So your proposal will change literally nothing.
Well done @AontuIE you sucked up the right wing energy and are using to be more centrist.
