Charity of the Day! Ciudiú which provides support and education to parents. Annual income of around €150,000 with 1/3 coming from the taxpayer. Very bare accounts, can't even see a breakdown of costs, let alone staff costs. Can't even see its CEO, but it is probably Paula Taheny.

Currently embroiled in another "chestfeeding" (men "feeding" babies with a chemically induced discharge, technically called "galactorrhea", from their nipples) controversy. Frontpage of Irish Daily Mail today, free to read here...

@_louise__ @IrishWineCoop I'm glad you have thrived and each to their own. However, it doesn't change the prehistory of human kind who thrived because, in general, they became meat eaters. There's no vit B12 in veg. Vit 12 is critical for the brain.

@leakylike @sjholmesirl @Ardilaungalway @genspect @wicklowwomen4w1 Thank you. In recent years, I have been getting an education, even from certain childrens books, that I would much rather have done without. I am horrified for my little grandchild.

@SamaHoole Check out Astley Warehouse Action Group, Zoe Bread and Wigan Council to see how a council can literally destroy peoples lives.

@nevpatt Sadly, that didnt work for me. Now Minday afternoon and still no internet. And I cant access 'Customer Support'. The ultimate insult is having to listen to 'Tobi' telling me what to do which doesnt work😤.

@EoinLenihan @fazzer2024 @BanTarleton36 Or corruption? I cannot fathom why they are doing this to us. What's in it for them? Their daughters and granddaughters?

@IrelandMeda Hi I get your reasoning re the change. May I suggest another idea? We will speak is in the future. "Irish Women Speak" is in the present, now, speaking. Regardless, it is an excellent initiative...thank you.

@thats_it1cemore @sjholmesirl @HSELive Interesting! That explains why I couldnt find anyone either when I looked them up. Sarah Holmes has done excellent work here.

@rhiannonkhan17 @BSIC_XX @sjholmesirl @Ardilaungalway @genspect @wicklowwomen4w1 I think its important to distinguish between the event at which he was only one of the presenters, and himself encouraging and endorsing child abuse.

[Uishabeg @GeraldineC72008]

@DavidWalshEire @sjholmesirl @Ardilaungalway @genspect @wicklowwomen4w1 Agreed. My point is that abusive calls to the hotel are not in the spirit of free speech. Neither are calls to cancel the whole event. But informing the hotel, as Jana Lunden did, in a courteous way, addressing the issues of that presenter and its implications are different.

[Uishabeg @GeraldineC72008]

@leakylike @sjholmesirl @Ardilaungalway @genspect @wicklowwomen4w1 I dont know who/what those groups are. But if its adult to adult, then free speech applies.

[Uishabeg @GeraldineC72008]

@sjholmesirl @Ardilaungalway @genspect @wicklowwomen4w1 Yes. I would. Jana Lunden had a respectful conversation with the manager about that presenter only and the implications for children's and women's protection and dignity. But I know that the hotel received abusive calls too. That, imo, is unacceptable.

@SuzieD755164 @JudgeJudgyJudge @HSELive Its only 'paused'.

[Uishabeg @GeraldineC72008]

@niall6002 @LOCthedreamer2 But who voted for her? That is the really depressing part!

[Uishabeg @GeraldineC72008]

@LOCthedreamer2 Millions of tonnes of beef have been imported from Brazil and stockpiled. That will go into our food chain for the next 2 years or more.

[Uishabeg @GeraldineC72008]

@Ferng6Ferng @Jklunden I too abhor cancel culture. But Jana Lunden makes it clear that the concern is not the entire event but the safeguarding of babies. The presence of this individual instructing in how to use babies to fulfil adult 'kinks' is something the hotel is entitled to know about.

@EndTheEU @Paula8178681 @TomOHanlon17 Same here. I had 2 separate very bad experiences today on the M7. 2 unnamed trucks ,looked like those long grain trucks, old reg plates, clearly travelling in convoy, driving so dangerously. The other a named truck whose driver put me and then a car ahead of me at risk.

@1rorycowan @MichaelPTKelly I voted for marriage equality. I consider Maria Steen to be a very intelligent and thoughtful person for whom I have the greatest respect.

@BarbaraDunne17 @caulmick They did the same thing to a nurse in UHL. They allowed a doctor to continue work in UHL for 1 yr after a nurse accused him of rape. She had to move to another hospital to work. He was eventually convicted and given 8yrs jail earlier this year.
