25 yrs ago a young man in Cork died by asphyxiation after being dragged into a nightclub and restrained by security staff. The DPP declined to prosecute & none of the staff faced charges after the killing. When lethal violence is excused further deaths are certain to follow.

I'm not going to repost the image but I can't help being reminded of George Floyd when seeing what happened to that man in Dublin.
We do not have a death penalty here, we sure as hell don't have one for alleged shoplifting.
Nobody had a right to kill him!

Met Gala chatter hits a little differently when you have friends who work in the Costume Institute and people are saying no they should be unemployed actually.

Are you fucking listening now?

Nothing for the average person, the country is being held hostage by racist, bullying arseholes who are only looking for a handout for themselves

[Eoin Daly @eoinmauricedaly]

For those of you gormless enough to think they’re ‘doing it for all of us’, they’re demanding price controls on… agricultural fuel, specifically. Some of you are honestly fit to have your wallets inspected.

[Derek # 🐶🦊 @Database2000]

Why the hell is this horrible racist, homophobic , person , who mocks People with disabilities and has openly declared his delight in a women being ra-pp-ed being given a platform ??? WTF??

There's only one class that thinks there's no such thing as class in Ireland

Irish craft and trade workers earn 42% on average of the hourly earnings of Irish Professionals. The largest disparity of any high income EU member.

In Denmark it's 84.4%

[Quine At The Discotheque. @EXECUTIVESTEVE]

When a few dozen women occupied the back entrance of Debenham's only a few hundred yards away (and who'd shut their doors without warning owing them all months in unpaid wages) the Gardaí were in there with batons and riot vans.

[Quine At The Discotheque. @EXECUTIVESTEVE]

Delighted to see the Gardaí out laughing and joking with the owners and operators of the heavy machinery blocking the city off. Presume this means that Palestinian solidarity marchers and climate protesters need no longer fear the pepperspray and the water cannons going forward.

[Shrill by Mouth @Iskesullas]

The 'academic/poltical scientist' having a go at the President is, you've guessed it, Dessie O'Malley's, son 😂. The Irish capitalist class aren't sending their brightest to defend their system. But I suppose for decades they had the Church do all their thinking for them.

[Quine At The Discotheque. @EXECUTIVESTEVE]

Good fucking LUCK with that.

I'm glad people are talking about violence against women and girls in Northern Ireland but some of you went to Washington the other week to shake hands with a rapist who has also been credibly accused of raping children

[Dr. Jessica Taylor @DrJessTaylor]

This is now the THIRD time I’ve covered a story where a woman has been put on antipsychotic medication for saying that someone was living in her house - and each time the woman was right - and each time a man was eventually arrested and found to be living in her loft.

1 case in Australia
2 cases in UK.

This is of course absolutely atrocious - but also serves to prove that there is ZERO science to a psychiatric disorder diagnosis. This young woman was put on heavy antipsychotics that made her feel like a zombie - for trying to report that someone was living in her loft.

What scientific or clinical process led to the diagnosis that she was psychotic and delusional? NOTHING.

What rationale was there for the antipsychotics? NOTHING.

In cases like this, women are disproportionately represented. Women try to report abuse, violence, concerns - and are still being chalked up as ‘mad’ with no evidence whatsoever.

I have been working really hard behind the scenes for months now to build something that can step in when this kind of thing happens - and I will explain more soon. There has to be a way to stop this from happening. Women like Chloe are everywhere, in every country - being gaslit and medicated for no reason when they try to report concerns.

Pathologisation is rife - and it must end.
Psychiatric diagnosis and medication has no basis in science.
She deserves compensation and to have all of this struck from her medical record immediately @LBC

The Irish journalist credited with bringing state broadcasting to Ireland – who chaired the first RTÉ board after a spell working in Britain – spent three weeks at Louis Mountbatten’s Sligo home while the royal was being monitored by British intelligence.
