"Self-government is our right, a thing born in us at birth; a thing no more to be doled out to us or withheld from us by another people than the right to life itself."

Roger Casement

We think particularly of the people from Fermanagh, from both sides of the community, who took part and struck a blow for Irish freedom at Easter 1916.

Remember them, as we do, with pride. Honour them by wearing an Easter Lily 🇮🇪

History can be made today. It's long past time that Irish Unity was a priority for the Dublin government. @MichealMartinTD comments this week are disgusting, offensive, but sadly not surprising. We are asking all our friends to do the right thing and vote for change. #GE24

[Mary Lou McDonald @MaryLouMcDonald]

Today you can make history.

By voting Sinn Féin, you can change the government.

We can do this! Change can happen.

But only if you stand up and make it happen.

Vote for change today. Vótáil Sinn Féin.

“The fact that we’re now the largest party of local government, the largest party of the Assembly, and the largest party of Westminster - speaks to the fact, I think, that it’s time for change…” - @MONeillSF

#OTD in 1918, a general election was held, which saw Sinn Féin win a landslide victory – 73/105 seats, incl. Constance Markievicz, the 1st woman elected to the British parliament. This election also marked the 1st time Irish women could vote. More info: https://t.co/ba0hFOXZHC

British gov should scrap cruel & callous legacy bill that deny access to truth.

Yesterday #BillOfShame was passed at Westminster. Denying truth to the families of Louis Leonard, Jim Murphy, Micheal Leonard and countless others. We stand beside these families in #NeverGivingUp

[Chris Hazzard MP @ChrisHazzardSF]

It is said that justice is what love looks like in public; today is yet another cruel illustration that the British state has no love for the people of Ireland

The British legacy bill is opposed by all political parties & every victims group - this is not the end #NeverGivingUp

[Fermanagh 1916 Historical Association @Fermanagh1916]

Michael's family been seeking truth & justice for 50 yrs. RUC, knowing they had murdered in cold-blood, covered it up. @papertrailpro have found more evidence & admission by top-ranking Brit army that they helped.

The attorney general must grant a fresh inquest.
#TimeForTruth

[Paper Trail @papertrailpro]

Breaking news: The British Ministry of Defence has admitted that the General Officer Commanding the British Army in Northern Ireland was informed that the RUC deliberately targeted and killed Irish civilian, Michael Leonard, the day after the murder https://t.co/BM73CCC78e

Phenomenal work being done to bring alive a history long suppressed!

[Fermanagh 1916 Historical Association @Fermanagh1916]

An absolute disgrace from the Metro!

Michael Barrett, from Fermanagh, was falsely accused and hung for it.

At the same time the Brits were blowing up forts and looting Ethiopia.

#FactsMatter

[Terence MacSwiney Committee (London) @MacSwineyCCLdn]

This notice in today’s Metro been brought to our attention. Disgraceful to see Barrett labelled as “terrorist”. Not only was he falsely accused but ‘one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter’. We note it lists nothing about what butchery the Empire carried out on this day.
