🇮🇪 Ireland must not play Israel as Palestinian people endure Israeli genocide, occupation and apartheid. On Tuesday, Sinn Féin bring a motion before the Dáil to support calls to #StopTheGame.
Ireland must take a stand. The FAI must take a stand. Government must take a stand.
#StopTheGame #FreePalestine
Irish unity is the biggest opportunity for all of us, but particularly our young people to have a future and to live in the country and the Republic that you deserve ���🇪
I have spent the last few days in the United States meeting political and business leaders, trade unions, and the Irish diaspora.
It was an invaluable opportunity to showcase the very best of our people and island, and to make the case for greater investment, creating more well-paid jobs and building a better future for people at home.
The historic change unfolding in Ireland was front and centre of conversations.
With more and more people at home looking to a future beyond the Union, there is growing interest in what comes next.
There is a new chapter being written.
A future where all our people take control of their own affairs and destiny, and together shape a united Ireland that betters the lives of everyone who calls this island home.
This is me speaking AGAINST the EU Migration Pact. Sinn Féin has opposed the pact from the beginning and we will speak against it tomorrow.
The EU Migration Pact is not in Ireland's interests. That is why I spoke out against it, voted against it and why we brought forward more than 50 amendments to the International Protection Bill which locked the pact in Irish law. Below is my speech during the first debate on it, two years ago, setting out why Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and the Greens were wrong to force this through.
It is wrong to hand decision making on migration over to the EU. These are decisions that are best made in Ireland so that we have a system that is fair, managed and enforced and that people can have confidence in.
Tomorrow Sinn Féin will call for a special debate in the Dáil on the pact and TDs will get to vote on whether it takes place. We need transparency and accountability.
Israel’s interception of Sumud Flotilla another brazen violation of international law; Government must secure immediate release of kidnapped Irish citizens – @MaryLouMcDonald
"The Government must intervene immediately and act to hold Israel to account."

Six Irish Citizens Kidnapped By Israel
This seizure of boats and the kidnapping of activists attempting to deliver life-saving humanitarian aid to Gaza, including Uachtarán Catherine Connolly’s sister, Dr. Margaret Connolly, is yet another brazen violation of international law by Israel.
The Irish Government must act urgently to secure the release of Irish citizens kidnapped from aboard the Sumud Flotilla by armed Israeli forces.
Everything must be done to protect the safety of all citizens involved.
The ongoing, genocidal blockade of Gaza is an outrage that world leaders tolerate.
The blockade is illegal, delivering aid is not.
The international community’s moral cowardice has pushed activists to bravely take it upon themselves to attempt to break the siege.
This was a mission of mercy which the Israeli forces have aggressively and violently intercepted.

.@caoimhinsf has travelled to Tàrrega, Catalunya to address the ‘Everyday Sovereignty: Local Political Communication Strategies in Europe’ conference hosted by Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya (ERC) and the European Free Alliance (EFA).
🇵🇸 It was my honour to welcome Palestinian Ambassador, Jilan Wahba Abdalmajid, to our Sinn Féin Ard Fheis.
I extended the continued support and solidarity of the people of Ireland to the people of Palestine, especially those enduring genocide in Gaza.
🇮🇪 @sinnfeinireland|eko presidente @MaryLouMcDonald|ek harrera egin dio Dublinen EH Bilduko Harreman Politikoen idazkari @G_Elejabarrieta|ri.
Bi indar politikoen arteko harreman historikoak estutzeko eta Euskal Herriko zein Irlandako egoera politikoari buruzko hausnarketak partekatzeko aukera izan dute bilkuran.
Arbour Hill hilerri historikoa ere bisitatu dute elkarrekin. Irlandaren independentzia oroitzeko monumentuan daude 1916ko Altxamenduaren ondoren exekutatutako 14 buruzagi errepublikarren gorpuak; horien artean, James Connolly eta Pádraig Pearse.

🇮🇪 The Secretary of Political Relations of EH Bildu has had the opportunity to strengthen the historic ties between Euskal Herria and Ireland.
@G_Elejabarrieta has emphasized the importance of internationalist solidarity in order to walk together toward a sovereign Euskal Herria and a united Ireland.
At Grey Abbey this Easter, we remembered the brave volunteers executed in 1922. Young rebels who stood by the Republic and gave everything for their country 🇮🇪
We will always remember them.
Their courage. Their sacrifice.
Their vision of an Ireland united, free and equal 💚
Today, we remember the generations of Irish men and women who devoted their lives to the cause of freedom.
I was proud to join with leaders from across Ireland at the GPO in Dublin.
The vision and ideals of the 1916 Proclamation remain as relevant as ever, an independent and sovereign Ireland rooted in equality and justice for all.
Westminster has never, and will never, act in the interests of communities on our island.
Now is the time to take our future into our own hands by building a new and united Ireland.
Together, we can shape an Ireland that provides real hope, opportunity and prosperity for every worker, family, and community that calls this place home.
