A woman who was filmed giving CPR to a man fatally injured in a road crash is calling for photographs and videos of crash sites to be made illegal.

@GMB Can someone tell Richard that Ireland is NOT the land of pumpkins? If he'd listen to Andy, he'd know here in Ireland, it was the custom to use carved turnips!
@UKing1690@TeamUnion_UK@TogetherUKFound 🤣 Pet 😂 Away and read my post again. Better still, get someone with a little intelligence to read it aloud to you. 🤣
@UKing1690@TeamUnion_UK@TogetherUKFound 🤣 Pet 😂 I know you're just another thick LUP, but read your OP again. Then, provide evidence to validate your claim. 🤣
@TeamUnion_UK@UKing1690@TogetherUKFound Pet 😂 you should know by now that MLAs and Cllrs here aren't British. Britain is across the water, on the other side of The Irish Sea Border...
A message from Liam Óg:
"A massive thank you to my legal team.
Darragh, Jude, blinne, Brenda, Gareth and to all at Phoenix law.
A special thanks also to my interpreter Susan.
This entire process was never about me, never about any threat to the public and never about "terrorism", a word used by your government to discredit people you oppress.
It was always about Gaza.
About what happens if you dare to speak up.
As people from Ireland we know oppression, colonialism, famine and genocide.
We have suffered and still suffer under "your empire".
Your attempts to silence us have failed, because we are right, and you are wrong.
We will not be silent.
We said we would fight you in your court and we would win.
We have.
If anyone on this planet is guilty of terrorism, it is the British state.
Free Palestine!
Tiocfaidh ár lá."
All charges have been dropped against Kneecap’s Mo Chara.
I strongly welcome this decision.
These charges were part of a calculated attempt to silence those who stand up and speak out against the Israeli genocide in Gaza.
Kneecap have used their platform on stages across the world to expose this genocide, and it is the responsibility of all of us to continue speaking out and standing against injustice in Palestine.
A book belonging to Keir Starmer 👇
The most sickening thing about Starmer and his support for genocide is he knows the truth, the law and the depth of the barbarity.
Rather than uphold the laws he studied and has a responsibility to act upon as Prime Minister, he ignores mass slaughter and starvation.
Instead he sends them weapons and support whilst he leads witch-hunts against those speaking and acting out.
He's the worst of the worst and history will never forget.

Some band called Bob Vylan (named after the Jewish Bob Dylan?) shows how Glastonbury is all about love and inclusivity:
Starts with ‘Free free Palestine.’
Then gets the crowd singing: ‘Death death to the IDF.’
Finishing with the genocidal flourish: ‘From the River to the Sea Palestine will be free. Inshallah.’
This Saturday afternoon hate fest is being screened by the BBC which we all pay for.
(HT @LizTray who was watching in disgust).
"Mo Chara’s real problem is that the message he put out landed. Working-class people aren’t meant to speak like this, organise like this, or connect struggles across borders like this. That’s what scares them.
While Mo Chara stands in the dock for allegedly waving a flag, those complicit in a genocide walk the streets untouched. Since October 2023, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza – entire families erased, journalists targeted, children bombed in their beds.
More than 300 officials at the Foreign Office raised their concerns about Israel’s “stark … disregard for international law”. And yet, the UK government continues to greenlight arms deals and offer diplomatic cover. That’s not a performance. That’s a conscious policy decision. Made in Westminster, paid for by the taxpayer, and buried beneath silence.
They’ve tried this before. Give Ireland Back to the Irish – banned. Christy Moore – detained. The Pogues’ Streets of Sorrow – silenced for decades. And now, it seems to be Mo Chara – for turning protest into poetry, politics into art.
So here’s the question – the same one Pete Seeger asked, the same one Mo Chara asks now: Which side are you on?
