Architect, sports fan,strong political opinions musical taste has been questioned but I like to think of it as unique. Views are my own RTs are not endorsements
Mary Lou claiming a man who murdered 5 people spent his life in pursuit of peace is extraordinary levels of gaslighting. He was a vicious murderer. Pte Patrick Kelly and Recruit Garda Gary Sheehan's families will also have something to say to Mary Lou about the murderous thug.
Shameful silence from the 🇪🇺’s combined leadership since Donald Trump announced his plans to forcibly move the Palestinian people out of Gaza.
Either the Union believes in and supports the Two State solution in the Middle East or it doesn’t.
It’s time to decide.
In case you missed it today, the Sinn Fein candidate to replace Michelle Gildernew as an MP refused to condemn the Omagh bombing and Mary Lou McDonald defended her. #notanormalparty

Israeli Defense Minister Gallant said: “I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip...No electricity, no food, no fuel. We are fighting human animals and we are acting accordingly.”
That is what they have done.
The world community cannot allow this barbarism.
Never forget the four Irish MEPs that voted against a European Parliament resolution condemning Russian aggression against Ukraine on December 16th, 2021, are.....
Clare Daly (Indo)
Luke 'Ming' Flanagan (Indo)
Mick Wallace (Indo)
Chris McManus (Sinn Fein)

Ireland has dropped to eighth place from second in an annual global index of press freedom, where it is described as a jurisdiction “where politicians have subjected media outlets to judicial intimidation”.
Or because of Sinn Féin in layman's terms.
Very disappointing to see some Irish #MEPs abstaining on condemning the besieging, shelling and starving of Yarmouk Camp, the largest Palestinian refugee camp in #Syria between 2011 and 2015 which led to the death of many hundreds of civilians.
Seems the Palestine issue isn't so black and white for some MEPs when it's Syria's autocratic dictator Bashar Al-Assad doing the killing and not Israel.
You cant object to being called far right but then use tactics from the history of the far right. I respect anyone's right to protest, disagree, contest, and win elections. But I reject intimidating people to frighten them and their family off the pitch. That isn't democracy. It's wrong.
@gavreilly Any rational person can see the world had significantly changed in 10 years. The UN & by extension Irelands ability to conduct peacekeeping missions or other basic functions, such as security for officials abroad, is held hostage by Putin and Xi. Is that what we want?
Many wondering what Michéal Martin was doing in Israel. Rather than draw conclusions from a picture, listen to this video.
Demanding a ceasefire, negotiating the release of Irish hostages directly from their captors. This is real diplomacy and real leadership from 🇮🇪.
