Dad had to record a 20 sec video over Christmas for my brothers 40th as he lives in Oz, it took over 7 minutes because he couldn’t get past the word “Hello” without cracking up, if you need cheering up or just want a good laugh, watch it.🤣

It's imperative that those with influence listen to what @decdevane is saying here ↙️↙️↙️ Obstructive practice CANNOT be allowed to continue, if multidisciplinary relationships are compromised by personal bias, bad care ensues and women will lose out. @LeoVaradkar @SimonHarrisTD

It's with deep regret that the MAI can now publicly address what we could only allude to recently. The MLU in Cavan is to be 'realigned' 'merged' or whatever semantics people like to put to it into CLU care. This is an absolute travesty > @NiamhSmythTD https://t.co/Nvd3iWsWMN

Revisiting this question by @deshocks last year. The MAI have consistently tried to highlight inequalities encountered by black women in pregnancy/childbirth. It's time the @HSELive act on these findings and those of previous @mbrrace reports #blackmaternalhealth #BLM #5xMore

Absolute pleasure to join @MidwivesIreland panel discussion on how we might do better at unifying a Midwifery voice in Ireland. It’s badly needed so my thanks and appreciation to all @MidwivesIreland for all you do

[MidwivesAssociation #VaccincesWork @MidwivesIreland]

Midwives also regret the impact of the proposed strike h'ever to provide safe & requisite care, we have no choice. The omission of the word 'midwife' in @HSELive tweet underpins the invisibility & lack of respect for midwifery in Ireland. @INMO_IRL #standwithnursesandmidwives

Great midwifery leadership shown by @PHUGHES2017 a lot of agreement with her sentiments #midwivesmakeadifference

Both Breedagh Hughes & Ursula Byrne talked about the 3 pillars of midwifery which embody the @world_midwives vision to strengthen the profession, Education/Regulation/Strong professional Association. The development the MAI is endeavouring to provide 3rd element #NMBI100years
