[Trans & Intersex Pride Dublin 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈 @DubTrans]

Coming in last and absolutely shocking no one is Ireland! Trans healthcare in Ireland is only getting worse with a 6+ year waiting list for Loughlinstown, no care for under 18s and forcing trans adults through an invasive and humiliating assessment. The NGS goes against

In my defence, you’d forget you’re being filmed on a radio program.

When will enough be enough?

[AlcoholActionIreland @AlcoholIreland]

We believe that the alcohol industry's access to our schools, and a facilitation of a corporate social responsibility strategy that exposes children to the ambiguous messaging of ‘responsible’ alcohol use, is simply unacceptable.

This may be my favorite thread ever.

@TENI_Tweets @KarSugrue Not for everyone. @TENI_Tweets said, some equality is better than none. We will fight for non binary rights after we get trans binary rights....7 years on....

🤯I can read this.

[🌟Cheshire Cat ᓚᘏᗢ, @autismsupsoc]

Can you easily read the pictured text?
It is upside down and backwards so start at the arrow in the bottom left corner.
The next tweet has black text on white if that is easier for you to look at.

[Billie @QueerBillie]

@autismsupsoc I read it relatively easily but it may be because I used to write backwards upside down and mirrored letters to my friend for fun

[Amanullah De Sondy @desondy]

It is unacceptable for Garda to tell me that my emotions might be running high and in a day or two I might not want to pursue this.

It is unacceptable for Garda to tell me that as I’m a head of a department this might be why I’m getting this response.

[HSE Drugs.ie @drugsdotie]

Drug trend update:
We're currently concerned about cannabis market drug trends in Ireland.

We are aware that there have been a number of synthetic cannabinoids appearing across herbal, vape and edible products which may impact on a number of different types of user groups.

[Billie @QueerBillie]

Myself and @ancaminescu had one agenda: conduct a seriously good piece of research together for the department of justice and the people of Ireland.

[Billie @QueerBillie]

.When i started this project it was because we (Ireland) did not know how much street sex workers knew about the law affecting them or how they organised their work. (thread) https://t.co/6sP1nWstic

[Billie @QueerBillie]

I am not sure what to think about some responses to this research, but I can state with certainty, I have not personally benefitted from being involved, the research was conducted ethically, diligently and with consideration for purity of findings.

[Billie @QueerBillie]

When the findings and recommendations are questioned what is it that is being questioned? The purity of the data? The truth of the data? The analysis of the data? The diligence and professionalism of the teams involved?

[Billie @QueerBillie]

One question was key: "If you could not work, or didn't want to, what would you do"? Everyone, without hesitation said they wouldn't work. None of our participants were forced or coerced which is why we can stand over the use of the term 'sex worker'.
