Delighted to meet Mary Dowling Maher today. She played no small part in my life.
Taught me in Crumlin CBS, later guided me to the Trinity Access Programme. Past ASTI president, staunch trade unionist.
Dungarvan friend of the Conway family. Sure, it’s only an island we live on.

22 January.

This day last year: stage three kidney cancer.

One hell of a year later — I’m still here.

Good days. Bad days.

But my God, I’m glad to be here.

Seize the day.

Here’s to the future

Fair play and well said @HMcEntee here. What is going on in Iran is just awful. The people there are rising up after nearly 50 years of religious tyranny. What comes next m, who knows, but it has to be better than what exists currently.

[Helen McEntee TD @HMcEntee]

I am deeply concerned by developments in Iran and reports of the repression of peaceful protesters.

Freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and access to information must be fully respected.

[Gary Honer @garyphoner]

I have to say it’s very disheartening to see the lack of commentary from our government in regard to what is going on in Iran. The people of Iran, ordinary people, are organised and stating firmly that enough is enough. This religious dictatorship is coming to an end.

[Mona @Mona_Nez]

We need Irish government to publicly support our revolution:
@HMcEntee, @SimonHarrisTD, @MichealMartinTD, @OCallaghanJim
and @CarrollJennifer
We need your support now.
The Islamic Republic Regime is mass killing our people and silencing us with an internet blackout.
Please see us.
Please don’t look away.

Just want to take the opportunity to wish everyone here a very Happy Christmas & all the best for 2026. However, I’m also aware that for many, Christmas can be a tough time. Make sure to reach out to get help if you need it as it’s ok not to be ok. Take care of yourselves.
