@EmmandJDeSouza I was 10 and living in Enniskillen when the GFA was signed. We as a p7 class were all given a copy and read the agreement together as a class. This was our future. Raab is a disgrace.
Disgusting & outrageous to see Pearse McAuley’s coffin draped in the Tricolour. A plastic patriot whose actions repeatedly undermined the Irish flag.
McAuley was convicted of killing a servant of the Irish State, Det Garda Jerry McCabe, who earned the Tricolour on his coffin.
Seeing people tweet about people drinking or hanging out outside Gaelscoil Coláiste Mhuire and politicians pretending to give a shit all of a sudden about it. So here’s a story about how the state has failed one of the few working class gaeilscoils in Dublin for a years (1/?)
Dublin City Centre is open for normal business.
We have an enhanced policing plan in place this evening and look forward to seeing shoppers, match goers and all those that will be socialising in the city over the weekend ahead.

This is what we’re up against.
The Labour Party, a subset of lawyers, criminal gangs - they're all on the same side, propping up a system of exploitation that profits from getting people to the UK illegally.
I have a plan to stop it.
Here’s how 🧵

@PookyLights telling me that orders from England - Northern Ireland is an ‘international order’. On the 12th of July of all days!!
They’ve since corrected themselves but funny nonetheless.
Love this graphic. Imagine the impact on bio diversity if we all approached our gardens like this. Messy, abundant, diverse gardens > preened and tidy 🪴👩🌾🍁🍃🌿
Exactly this. I attend court daily and a mum of 2. I work long days and often at weekends. How you say? Time spent in court is a fraction of our work load. If these recommendations are implemented, my days as a barrister would be numbered.
@little_pengelly Did the @dup_online conduct a cost-based analysis of brexit prior to their decision to support the leave vote? Or are we in this perilous position precisely because there was zero prior analysis? The reality is that Brexit, in whatever form, was always going to be harmful to NI
@danobrien20@TomMcTague@LeoVaradkar Dominic Raab admitted he hadn’t read the 35 page Good Friday agreement. Criticise both sides, by all means, but the U.K. negotiators did not prioritise NI (& the consequent threats to peace). The EU & ROI repeated ad nauseam that the GFA & peace on the island were #1 concerns.
@TomMcTague This take is truly maddening. Whatever way you slice it, all issues w Brexit & Northern Ireland (threatening hard fought peace) are traced back to the fact it wasn’t given a 2nd thought during the ref. During negotiations, we’re merely a stumbling block in the brexit experiment
