It is despicable to take the credit for the work of the volunteers. Those volunteers diligently trawled through the records to create the boards with the names of the #Bessboro missing babies. Credit to @danielmloftus & @Project_Infant

I don’t intend to create squabbles but I can’t let the work of my volunteers at @Project_Infant not be highlighted. Only for them would those boards (and extra 74 names) have been found and created. Please give credit where credit is due. Video: Corruption Awareness Ireland

I think the hardest part of this venture (and being in the area of advocacy in general) was the feeling of hope, the feeling that some form of change might happen. And then it's extinguished like a flame... #Bessborough needs an investigation.

🧵1/6 In October 2025 I on behalf of myself & @danielmloftus met with @FergalDennehy & @McGrathSeamus with a proposal for an independent investigation of the remaining 60 acres at #Bessborough Our stance has always been about finding the missing babies.

you should. Daniel, who is a college student in his early twenties does all this work for no fee; he is extremely helpful in situations where oldies like me become stuck. He should receive a #NationalAward for providing support so generously while in third level studies.

Daniel has a direct family history to the #Bessborough #MotherAndBabyHome which he has spoken of. It is the mark of this young man that he chose not to dwell on Bessboro alone but on all sites where vulnerable citizens lost their lives. If you’re not already following 3/4

In June 2023 I invited Daniel to open our Conference titled “Grave Injustices” dealing with the scandal of #MotherAndBabyHomes in recognition of the wonderful work he was undertaking. Make no mistake, this is what the State with endless resources should be doing. 2/4

1/4. The State owes a debt of gratitude to @danielmloftus and team who have to-date recorded the names of thousands of infants, babies, children and mothers who died in Ireland’s Institutions. Daniel titled the website “Project Infant”

Dear @HeatherH, Can I just say you sound so adamant along with many other TDs that everything with Ireland’s institutions doesn’t matter now. I’m also working on giving those children their names back that your Government didn’t do when you had *every* opportunity to do it.

Car crash interview by Heather who says “It doesn’t really matter now at this stage” about sealing Mother & Baby Homes survivor testimony for 30 years. Heather: “I don’t know exactly what is sealed and what isn’t sealed” John Morley (host): “You voted for this!” @Galwaybayfmnews

I’d be interested to find the return for EVERY institution out there to see exactly how many were there. For instance, 729 students for Artane Industrial School in 1901, going up to 807 in 1911. I imagine it would be quite a large figure when we do get to finally have a look…

A thread... @ExpGlasnevin is the burial place for 3,097 of these children. I have been corresponding / trying to get through to them since August, to get access to the records to find where they are buried. They have now stonewalled me entirely. [1/5]

This should be raising alarm bells in itself. If Industrial School survivors are still fighting the Government for what they were promised 26 years ago, what kind of precedent is that setting for any other institutional survivor trying to get their basic entitlements?

It is times like this that I wish I had the power to expand @Project_Infant to include the names of those who died in the UK’s institutions too. Being a dual citizen of both countries & one half of my family in each country — it hurts that I’m not able to help with the UK front.
