After a lot of hard work and many meetings, it's great to see the launch of @PWO_Ireland.
The terrible treatment of postgrads in Ireland needs to end, and we're better equipped now more than ever to make it happen!
Two weeks ago, PGWA and PCAU opened our recruitment drive as the launch of the Postgraduate Workers Organisation.
From this week you will find us under the new PWO name. The names and logos have changed but we continue our fight for fair and equal treatment of PGRs in Ireland.
Spend to end the HSE pay and numbers strategy, to slash wait lists, to ease pressure on health workers and deliver the best services possible.
Forget about military hardware and joining the rest of the West as they posture for war.
Welfare not warfare!
Article about the origin of the PWO, the challenges faced and gains made so far, and the road ahead of us. Out today in @Rundale_Media!

Cowardly capitulation to the US and Zionist bs, accepting a definition of anti-Semitism that conflates Judaism and Zionism.
Knows damn well that the Irish support for Palestine has always been about opposing Israeli apartheid, colonialism, oppression and now genocide.
Today I have announced Ireland’s endorsement of the non-legally binding Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s non-legally binding working definition of antisemitism.
My disabled daughter is 26. I have been using every bone in my body to try and get supported housing for her over the last 8/9 yrs. I'm getting nowhere. When myself and my husband are no longer fit to care for her, and it's when, not if, she also could end up in a nursing home
A total farce from start to finish, the largest housing development in Dublin at the moment and largest on Northside in years
DCC should have gone out to tender to builders with our own plan and stayed away from Glenveagh. We are paying the price for missing this opportunity now
Our motion did not make the clár for tonight but there will be discussion with statements from management and opportunities for cllrs to speak and ask questions.
Myself and @HazelPBP will keep on top of this, working with volunteers from soup runs across our city
“Almost every study or observation on Ireland shows we are one of the least antisemitic countries in Europe.”
Jacob Woolf, a member of the Jewish community in Ireland, says despite isolated incidents, Ireland is not an antisemitic country.

Comhghairdeas mór le @Taiwo_Oifigiuil on winning Activist of the Year at the Black and Irish awards recently.

Coinnigh ort a Dharragh!
It's wild how effective branding is. Despite 5 years of climate failures, opening dosens of new data centres, missing every climate target set and laying the ground work for a new LNG terminal there is still a deluded 45% who trust the @greenparty_ie on climate
“The private sector is simple not capable of delivering houses that are affordable so 60 to 70% of ordinary working people are completely priced out of ever buying their own home”
@RBoydBarrett tells @KatieGHannon#rteupfront@rtenews@rteone
"Tenant's Rights" - you lifted the no fault eviction ban leading a massive increase in homelessness
We've had weapons for genocide pass through the country unchallenged, you lifted a ban on data centre, you passed the LNG terminal... The list goes on, your party's a joke.
I took this photo on 1st June 2020 early in the government negotiations. I wrote down some of the main things I wanted to get on the programme.
Now on the last day of this Dáil, I can see that we got most of these things done but of course we also achieved things we hadn’t foreseen like half price youth travel.
I want to thank my colleagues in the greens, our coalition partners, but also the opposition for always pushing me to go further.
This woman is very brave. Not unlike Gisele Pelicot, it’s a courageous thing to waive anonymity. The shame shouldn’t be Nikita’s, no matter how much she drank or what she took. We still have such misplaced ideas about perceived “less-innocent” victims. Brave girl.
