Today, joined by Stephen Bowen, Amnesty Ireland, we delivered letters to Taoiseach Micháel Martin & Tánaiste and Minister for Finance Simon Harris, demanding that the government stop the Central Bank facilitating apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians #StopFundingGenocide
The Irish Minister of justice Jim O Callaghan is blocking students from Gaza studying in Ireland for the following reasons
There are gaps in their education
They can’t provide bank statements
They can’t prove they’ll return to Gaza.
Still silent?
Please sign and share this petition calling on Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan to approve visas for students from Gaza who have been granted scholarships to Irish universities. This is crucial. #FreePalestine

Here's Billy a few years back calling for all sporting organisations in Ireland to have autonomy in deciding whether they should compete against Russian teams and sports people ;" Consistant Bill" is his motto.@RTE_PrimeTime
Fair play to Eoghan & Denman, and all the members, supporters, and volunteers who contributed their hard work in the run up to the by-election.
We'll continue our campaigning and work in our communities now, but the by-election has made clear just how unpopular FF & FG are.
Only one party and it's supporters take "vote left transfer left " seriously and in the coming years that's the only way to stop the far right and the neo liberal order .
Shameful! FF, FG & Ind government publicly condemn Israeli regime for kidnap and abuse of Gaza flotilla on tv & radio,then vote(77-62) against the bill to sanction Israel that flotilla activists asked them to support. Media has a public service obligation to expose this duplicity
What a joke.
Less than 12 hours ago, his government voted down a proposal to ban trade with Israel.
His government has spent 8 years delaying and watering down and trying to avoid a ban on Israeli settlement products.
If you are so "appalled and shocked" by the treatment of the flotilla activists why did the government walk into the Dáil after issuing this statement and vote against sanctioning Israel when the same flotilla activists had explicitly called on you to support the sanctions bill?
As climate change effects become clearer and harder to ignore, the far right and co who denied it will just switch to various conspiracy theories to explain it away ;https://t.co/x108k3hjBt
Israel executed Hadi, Ali, and Moussa today in Deb’al, South Lebanon.

Three paramedics on the front lines — assassinated while saving lives.
