Charitable Irish Society

The Charitable Irish Society is the oldest Irish society in the Americas. Founded in Boston in 1737 to welcome & support Irish immigrants.

It’s crazy how, in hindsight, Austria-Hungary is ridiculed as an outdated state, even though it’s almost reminiscent of the modern EU: The Prime Minister was Polish, the Emperor was German, the sailors in its navy were largely Italian and later Croatian, Muslims from Bosnia guarded the War Ministry in Vienna, and as a member of parliament in Vienna, you could deliver your speeches in Ukrainian.

[The Irish News @irish_news]

"It should not - must not - be forgotten that many of those who served and died in that most horrible of wars were Irish nationalists. They were fighting not for England, but for Ireland, and a belief that once the war was over it would achieve Home Rule.

"Uncomfortable still as this thought must be for some, they laid down their lives for our future, not for king and country."

It was an honour, as Taoiseach, to represent the Government and lay a wreath at the Remembrance Day ceremonies in Enniskillen.

A deeply moving event to remember those who have fallen in past wars, and remembering all those who lost their lives in the Enniskillen bombing atrocity

For the full statement, please see the link below. In response to the governor’s decision to oppose an effort to uphold the dignity of all human life in Massachusetts, Archbishop Henning and the Catholic Bishops of Massachusetts shared a statement this evening calling for greater support for mothers, children, and families in crisis. https://t.co/9nTVvF4QNj
