@irish_news@AlexKane221b feels the deep anxiety of those who live a life as an "expat" in colonial mode - permanent fear/hate of the indigenous culture that leads to excessively brutal attempts to destroy & eliminate it, knowing that one day there will be change. Time to embrace Irishness.
"Today belongs to the victims of the Springhill/Westrock massacre, to their families, and to the people of West Belfast who stood shoulder to shoulder with them throughout this long and hard journey." - Sinn Féin First Minister Michelle O'Neill
@irish_news UK PM Starmer apologizes to families of Springhill massacre but An Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD has never visited the memorials to those Irish citizens of Belfast mowed down by British Soldiers in places like Springhill or Ballymurphy. @fiannafailparty the republican party.

“What I’m asking for is the fulfillment of my democratic right to a referendum that was set out very clearly in the Good Friday Agreement.” - Sinn Féin First Minister Michelle O’Neil
“The border poll provision in the Good Friday Agreement was included because it is a legitimate aspiration. It is time that we were given the choice about whether to stay linked to Brexit Britain or to help build a New Ireland within the EU.” - Ben Collins

@businessposthq Business Post conducted a poll. Sinn Féin remains top party choice. Mary Lou gets best party leader vote from supporters, FF FG are in the also rans, yet their headline is what?
This evening, six new Sinn Féin Mayors and Chairs were elected across councils in the North.
In Antrim and Newtownabbey, history was made with the election of the council’s first ever Sinn Féin Mayor, reflecting the positive change taking place across our society.
Each Mayor and Chair will work tirelessly to represent all communities, create better opportunities for people, and have the backs of families through these difficult times with the cost-of-living crisis.
I look forward to working together with all incoming Mayors and Chairs across every council to build a better future for all who call this place home.
Unionist parties never cease to demonstrate their perverse ideas of ethics.
They claimed that they pushed out @BeattieDoug for his offensive behaviour but ignored his bloodthirsty account of his Afghanistan invasion.
Sinn Féin is bringing forward a Dáil motion on Tuesday 9th June to support calls to ‘Stop the Game’ between Ireland and Israel.
It is unthinkable for Ireland to play Israel at home or away while Israel is engaging in genocide, occupation and apartheid against the Palestinian people. Israel cannot continue to act with impunity. Israel must be sanctioned.
Ireland has to take a stand. The FAI has to take a stand. The Irish government has to take a stand. #stopthegame
“It doesn’t have to be this way. The reason why homlessness is rising is because the govt is allowing it to happen & until that changes the crisis will get worse.” - Sinn Fein TD Eoin Ó Broin launching 12 -point emergency homeless plan. See plan here: https://t.co/uouGXnoSj6
Comhghairdeas mór le Róis-Máire Donnelly. An chéad Ard-Mhéara eile ar Bhéal Feirste.
Huge congratulations to Róis-Máire Donnelly. The next Lord Mayor of Belfast.
@HMcEntee@defenceforces@IRLDeptDefence My biggest takeaway from my time in Lebanon with the army was how much they drank. I couldn't believe reading the papers when I came home, the impression they give of what they do overseas vs what they actually do. We were only a token presence pretending. It was a handy 6 months
@HMcEntee@defenceforces@IRLDeptDefence They look great in those sun tans risking their lives with melanoma. Micheál Martin ensured that Israel knew where their loyalties lay. The actual Óghlaigh na hÉireann fought the SAS, The Paras, the RUC and the UDR.
