Thanks to Niamh and Aedín Hassett for the excellent history talks, and to Deborah Ryan, Kathleen Maher and @betaburns for the often times uncomfortable yet vital discussions around homelessness, domestic violence and disability.
Ócáid den scoth.
Ní Saoirse go Saoirse na mBan!
Great event today to mark #IWD2020 and raise some much deserved funds for @novasireland & @ascendservices.
Brilliant discussions and great engagement from the floor.
We need a change of policy urgently FF and FG have agreed the last 4 budgets..the situation for patients and staff is consistently getting worse If you want change you have to vote for it More of the same is failing patients and staff
I remember vividly driving home after both referenda feeling elated until that sinking realisation hit once I crossed the border.
My heart is so full this morning!!
Thinking of those who suffered under those archaic laws.
Never again. 🌈 ♥️
#TheNorthIsTODAY#Equality
As of midnight, the North has taken a huge step forward in LGBT+ and women's rights.
I want to commend all those that have campaigned over the decades for these fundamental rights.
Let's continue to build an inclusive and just society that cherishes all its citizens equally.
Millions of tonnes of munitions & chemical weapons were dumped by the MoD in the sea off the UK coast up until the 1990s...
The MoD now admits it's not even routinely monitoring these "sea dump" sites.
🚨 N.B. Belgian sea dump sites started leaking WWI mustard gas in May... 😬

Fianna Fail's Jackie Cahill has been heavily criticised at a farmers protest against the Mercosur deal over his Government's ongoing agreement with Fine Gael. "There is no more Fianna Fail," one irate farmer shouted. #iestaff

Judicial Council Bill containing Sinn Féin proposals on Sentencing passed through the Dáil last week.
The public deserves to know that offenders will receive a sentence that fits the crime and that they can have faith in the institutions to deliver justice.
@TippFM@tippmidwest
Seriously? Joan Burton doubled poverty for working lone parents and closed work as a gateway out of poverty for thousands of our families and you have the gall there to pretend you care about child poverty?
Great to get out and about in Thurles this afternoon with Sinn Féin local election candidate @ciara_new . Lovey warm welcome from the people on the streets. Post Office, housing, cost of living all big issues.
