The people (who told their stories of how the 8th amendment affected them) won Repeal.

"Fuck off" to anyone else that "claims" the victory

You didn't do it

@shinyshona @ItsSarahCreed @ailbhes @gragriffin @GanglyMac I have a note in my diary to message Sarah next week x

[Everyday Stories @es_irl]

YOU won this for us.
You won this for Ireland.
For the women of Ireland.
For the women of the world, who didn't even know on 25.05.18 they needed fighting for.
You are warriors.
And you are goddesses.
Each and every one of you.

And we bow at your feet and worship you.
Thank you

[Everyday Stories @es_irl]

One year on and all we have for every single person who told their story, to get Ireland to this place... in world history...is still complete and utter admiration.

[Everyday Stories @es_irl]

You told your story to us.
You trusted us to tell it to others via art installations, written text and audio recordings.
You went on local, regional, national and international media to share your stories.
You did so selflessly so that others won't have to tell similar stories.

Earlier this week I meet with 2 survivors of Mesh and heard their stories. They were heart breaking. And outrageous.
Next Weds Nov 28 , 12pm there is a protest at Leinster House to draw attention to this absolute scandal.
We support this protest and all in @meshsurvivorire

[Everyday Stories @es_irl]

The CMO report was released today confirming high complication rates, with Simon Harris praising women for sharing their private stories.
Many women need to travel to the UK to have the Mesh removed with surgery costing ~£10k. #meshscandal #mesh

[Everyday Stories @es_irl]

But mainly, THANK YOU to everyone who #repealedthe8th in any way.

I'm getting ready now to march at the #ARCMarch18 to ensure the government legislates properly and that no one gets left behind.

Hope to see many of you there!
