The community of the Garvaghy Road has stood firm and resolute and has the delivered the only viable solution, which is no orange, sectarian march on their road.

28 years of peace and progress has been protected.

Sinn Féin was proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Garvaghy Road community.

People from every background and every corner of Ireland have delivered a clear and unambiguous message: our society will not be dragged back into the past.

There Is No Going Back.

Not Now. Not Ever!

[Ruairí Ó Murchú @ROMurchu]

I want to commend the community of the Garvaghy Road for their courage, for their resilience against what we hope is one of the last pangs of Orange supremacy & triumphalism.

THANK YOU FOR A BRILLIANT YEAR ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[Louth GAA @louthgaa]

Louth GAA would like to acknowledge the mammoth service Colm Corrigan has given to our great county, as he finishes up his Monday to Friday role with LMFM, tomorrow after 34 years of service.

The job Colm has done for LMFM and the wider region over the last 34 years has been simply incredible.

When Colm made his first broadcast in 1992, nobody could have imagined the impact he would go on to have. Through dedication, professionalism, warmth and an unwavering commitment to listeners, Colm has become one of the defining voices of our local games and a trusted companion to generations of people.

To spend 34 years at the heart of LMFM is an achievement in itself. To do so while consistently informing, entertaining and connecting with audiences’ day after day is truly remarkable. The mark Colm has made on Louth people; LMFM listeners and the wider community will endure for many years to come.

It has been a privilege for all of us in Louth GAA to work alongside Colm and witness the passion, knowledge and care he has brought to every commentary and broadcast. As a valued member of the Louth GAA Communications Committee, Colm has also given generously of his time, experience and expertise behind the scenes. His support, guidance and wise counsel have been invaluable to so many of us, and his willingness to help, encourage and advise has made a lasting difference to our organisation.

Like so many Louth Gaels, we are gutted that this chapter is coming to an end, but after 34 years of outstanding service, Colm leaves with the hearts of a county.

The memories, the moments and the connection he has built with audiences over more than three decades will never be forgotten.

Thank you, Colm, for your commitment, your friendship, your professionalism and your remarkable service.
We wish you every happiness and success in the years ahead .

Go raibh míle maith agat, Colm. ❤️🤍

Sinn Féin to move Dáil motion at earliest opportunity calling on government to Stop The Game – Joanna Byrne and Lynn Boylan

"The Ireland national team, under our tricolour, simply cannot be used as a prop in Israeli sportswashing during a genocide."

[Ruairí Ó Murchú @ROMurchu]

Dublin Central & Galway West have the opportunity to send a clear message to government that workers & families demand real action on cost of living to make life more affordable

The best way to do that is by voting @sinnfeinireland

This is the next step in getting rid of them altogether.

[Mary Lou McDonald @MaryLouMcDonald]

For fifty-two years, families who lost loved ones and survivors of the Dublin and Monaghan Bombings have courageously campaigned for truth and justice. Today, we send them love, support and solidarity.

The government must intensify efforts to ensure British State agencies release all information and documents in relation to the bombings.

These heartbroken families have been stonewalled for more than five decades. They deserve answers. They will never give up and we will stand with them as they continue their brave fight.

Supporting ambulance staff on the picket line in Louth this morning

Supporting ambulance staff on the picket line in Louth this morning.

Frontline workers who save lives every day and have been left waiting years for fair recognition, proper staffing, and the implementation of the 2020 review recommendations.

This strike could and should have been averted with goodwill from Government, the HSE and NAS management.

Paramedics need a properly funded workforce and a government willing to intervene, show leadership, and resolve this long-standing dispute.

We will always stand with our ambulance service workers in their fight for respect, fair pay and safe staffing.

Lack of planning by Government and HSE on disability care services leaves families in fear – @ROMurchu

"There needs to be a sea-change from the Minister and the HSE, they are not planning properly and are stripping the humanity out of the system."

In Louth this morning myself and Ruairí Ó Murchú met with farmers, hauliers, agricultural contractors and bus drivers. People under huge pressure as this government refuses to listen. Their handling of the fuel and cost of living crisis has been disastrous. The bare minimum and half measures are not good enough. We need maximum reductions in fuel prices now!

[Mary Lou McDonald @MaryLouMcDonald]

🔥 Watch this! Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael refuse to listen to people. Arrogant and incompetent. Half measures don’t cut it. We need to see the maximum reduction in fuel prices at the pumps. The people have no confidence in this useless government. They should back their bags and go.

[Ruairí Ó Murchú @ROMurchu]

The government only moved because of public pressure - and even then, they fell short. The pressure must now intensify. We will bring forward our motion of no confidence in the government this week. They have to go.

This government clearly aren’t listening to the people. They haven’t taken the necessary action to make fuel affordable at the pumps. What they announced this evening fell far short. Working people left behind again. The solutions are there. They could have cut diesel by the maximum amount to prevent it being wiped out within days. They could have cut petrol further. They could have scrapped excise on home heating oil.

People have no confidence in this government. They have failed to take responsibility for a crisis that they allowed to spiral out of control. They are out of touch with the cost of living reality facing ordinary workers and families, with carers and disabled people.

In Dundalk for #FuelProtest

[Ruairí Ó Murchú @ROMurchu]

Farmers, farm contractors, hauliers, bus operators are continuing to protest to get a reasonable break from the excessive cost of fuel for themselves & all those under severe pressure.

They are demanding government action to cut fuel taxes & deliver real support for workers, families & local businesses.

People are more determined than ever to have their voices heard & need to see action & respect from the Irish government that has been disgraceful through this crisis.

@sinnfeinireland will keep standing with you. We will fight your corner until ordinary people are put first.

[Ruairí Ó Murchú @ROMurchu]

UPDATE: Fuel protesters were turned away from the meeting

Madness from government

It’s like they don’t want the protests to end

Something has to change.
