Just a reminder that the West destroyed Iran’s progressive democracy in 1953, deposing a leader beloved of the people, and installed a dictatorship in his place. The US and UK have been terrorising that country for as long as any of us have been alive. It’s sick.
We launched our first motion of this Dáil term today - calling for better public transport for all.
Here's what we are calling for:
💶 20% fare cut – and keep fares low
🚌 Passenger Experience Office
🌐 Local Link in every village, every hour
🏗️ €10bn more investment
The EBU just got a scary insight into how allowing a rigged televote every year & being complicit in genocide has the potential to end this contest for good. Austria may have saved this year like Switzerland did last year but this issue will not go away.

Irish & UK journalists protested Israel’s ongoing targeting and killing of media workers in Gaza at our NUJ DM in Blackpool. Around 200+ killed and counting. Already double the number killed over the entire Vietnam war. It’s an outrage #SupportPalestinianJournalists
Sinn Fein should be ashamed of themselves. Here, their chief whip describes our transgender friends & neighbours as “a difficult issue” and endorses Trumpworld and Conor McGregor’s definition of men & women. Rotten. Absolutely rotten.
#TonightVMTV does Daniel Mcconnell know he's on camera? Smirking and laughing when a non govt TD talks, but listening intently when a govt TD rambles on? He's beyond parody
Venn diagram of Irish people getting horny for the British supreme court dictates to be magically imposed in Ireland while waving Ivory Coast flags at Ireland for the Irish demos.
Inclusion Ireland who were not paid 13 million, produced an easy to read guide in two days that the Farrelly Commission could not produce after 8 years. #Grace
I was genuinely hoping that David Cullinane’s transphobic statement two days ago was representative of him alone.
But Pádraig Mac Lochlainn has made it patently clear here that transphobic rhetoric is becoming increasingly more popular, and accepted, within Sinn Féin presently.
