“We are the largest party of the working class. I don’t need anyone to define my politics. I’m an Irish republican. I come from a working class constituency. I’m a United Irelander. I believe in fairness, I believe in justice and I have an ambition for this country. What I want is a government without Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael… and I’m prepared to work to make it a reality”

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
Based on her interview on Morning Ireland, Ivana Bacik's slogan for the next Dáil election will be Vote Labour, Keep Fine Gael.
Appalling, but not at all surprising stuff from the party that delivered the cruelest parts of austerity against those most in need. #neverfoget
@MarkAgitprop@linny55 Also fails to mention that Soc Dems got bulk of Mark's transfers, maybe Labour got less because SF voters still remember the record of Labour in Government with FG 🤷🏻♀️
“What you’re suggesting is what we’ve seen in the past, it’s not new and it’s not change, it’s where Labour & others act as a mudguard for Fine Gael”
Ivana Bacik letting cat out of the bag. She wants to exclude Sinn Féin and PBP from a left alliance in order to prop up FF/FG
@paulmurphy_TD Genuine question just out of confusion, how did the committee lead by the PBP-Ind technical group turn to a FF chairperson just the other day
That lot aren’t left wing enough for me.(Translation: They actually represent working class communities Labour abandoned for austerity). ✅
Goes on Morning Ireland with come-and-get-me plea to the Blueshirts. (Reminder: We’re still living with the consequences of the last FG/Lab government). ✅
People across Dublin Central are under real pressure with the rising cost of living and they need support now.
That’s why this by-election matters. People deserve a strong voice in the Dáil who will stand up for workers and families and fight for an emergency budget to make life more affordable.
On May 22nd, vótáil Janice Boylan No. 1 and send this government a message that enough is enough.
Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil are serial wasters of taxpayer money, while they tell ordinary workers and families to tighten their belts and wait. This can't continue.
We need an emergency budget to help people in the here and now who are struggling with the cost of living.
That's why this by-election is so important. People need someone who will go in the Dáil to speak up for them and who has listened intently to what they have to say.
On Friday May 22nd, Vótáil Janice Boylan No. 1 to put maximum pressure on this disgraceful government. Enough is enough.
Fine Gael's Dublin Central byelection candidate Ray McAdam travelled to an election event last week in the official car provided to him as lord mayor. It’s unclear whether McAdam or the required official driver drove the car.

“What people in London like to refer to, rather patronisingly, as the Celtic Fringe is about to become centre stage”.
@JohnSwinney says Scotland, Wales & NI will all have first ministers committed to constitutional change.
Mary Lou McDonald and I have spoken today with SNP leader John Swinney and Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth.
The momentum for constitutional change across these islands is now greater than ever.
People in Ireland, Scotland and Wales are looking towards a future beyond the Union, where we have full control over our own affairs.
We discussed the enormous significance of this week’s election results, and the historic potential of having three nationalist, pro-independence First Ministers.
We agreed to continue working together to strengthen the friendship between our nations, and to stand up for the democratic right of our people to self-determination.
@borderofmordor Typically these constituency level polls have big margin of error due to small sample sizes, however idk how many are polled for this evenings
Government must end years of neglect and fund regeneration of Dublin flat complexes – Janice Boylan
"The refusal by the Minister for Housing James Browne to fund the regeneration of flat complexes is a reckless decision that undermines years of engagement."

Housing and the cost of living, two of the greatest failures of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil. I will always stand up for workers and families in Dublin Central who have been so let down by this government, put to the pin of their collar and whose voices have been ignored for far too long.
You can send the strongest possible message to this government that you've had enough and they must take real action now.
Vótáil Sinn Féin's Janice Boylan No. 1 on Friday May 22nd.
