Why hasn't Humphreys faced questions about her time working for Ulster Bank from 1978, and as Assistant Manager of one branch between 1991-1999? She worked for the banks for far longer than she worked for the Credit Union.
Today I went back to northern #Gaza trying to reach my hometown #Jabalia Camp. But I couldn’t. The Israeli tanks were firing directly at anyone who tried to get close !
Then I went to Gaza City… Honestly I couldn’t handle the massive destruction I saw. Thousands of homes are completely destroyed
The destruction is beyond words 💔
Truly heartwarming to meet these bright Palestinian students who were awarded scholarships @ucddublin many of whom came directly from Gaza
They are so proud of their Palestinian culture and so full of life and excitement, eager to learn and embrace this next chapter in their education.
Ambassador Dr Jilan Wahba Abdalmajid was delighted to share this special occasion with them - hearing all about their experiences, their plans, and sharing our own experience of working in Ireland for the Palestinian people 🇵🇸🇮🇪
Raffle closes at midnight tonight
Despite all your kind shares/posts/texts there’s only 6 entrants so your odds of winning are good!

The lines out from the coastlines on this map are very important. They indicate territorial waters and they show that Israel, under maritime law, has no jurisdiction over Gaza's waters. Media spouts the lie of 'Israeli waters' but the flotilla will never enter Israeli waters
@KathMcNally@Education_Ire And that's why @Education_Ire@roinnslainte strongly advocate against teachers testing so most parents remain willingly oblivious & teachers can go about infecting kids knowing they are just 'following the guidelines'. Morals it appears have no place in modern education.
As Irish hospitals are at crisis point & we learn #longcovid has overtaken asthma as the most prevalent chronic disease in children, i'm faced with the decision tomorrow to send my IC child into class with an actively positive teacher because @Education_Ire guidelines say it ok.
We are approaching a ‘huge concentration’ of vessels and are preparing for interception in the next hour or so.
Novara Media will be streaming live on Youtube.
I’ll also be live on Instagram.
My colleague @CharlottEngland will be posting updates here.
🚨HORRIBLE: infant Mostafa was just 9 days old when an Israeli quadcopter shot him in the head.
"We asked 50 doctors and nurses who served on medical missions in Gaza: Did you see children brought to the hospital with gunshot wounds to the head?
35 of them said YES‼️"
“They’re saying we’re going to free 1,700 Palestinians taken since October 7th, including all women and children. And, you know, first of all, why doesn’t anyone ever talk about this?… Why is Israel holding children?… Israel is holding hundreds of dead bodies of Palestinians… For each Israeli body that they’re going to return, Israel would give 15 Palestinian bodies. They’re holding Palestinians in numbered freezers… in graves marked only by numbers. There are hundreds of Palestinian bodies being held by that sick society right now… They are holding unknown numbers of children. There are as many as 15,000 or more Palestinians held captive right now in Israel.”
Scahill explains that while the deal promises 1,700 detainees and 250 lifers, Israel intends to veto figures like Marwan Barghouti of Fatah or Ahmad Sa’adat of the PFLP. He says the exchange reveals Israel’s vast system of mass detention, where children, bodies, and symbolic leaders are held as leverage.

The US/Israeli so called 'peace plan' says more aid will enter Gaza, an admission that Israel has been using starvation as a weapon of war
Chris McIntosh from Oxfam makes the point that humanitarian aid is not meant to be dangled in front of a population as part of a peace deal
