@tanyasweeney Yep moved rural, renovating old house and had a baby in 2021.

Disaster! #COVID19

[Rose Keane @RoseKeane16]

@paulreiddublin @CMOIreland @RandoxOfficial @IrishTimes with hundreds queueing for PCR in the cold at Dublin Airport. I tried for 3 days to get a #hse appointment but nothing despite constant refreshing of your website. Shocked and disappointed.

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

All while the media falsely reported that restrictions had been lifted… words failed to turn into action yet again. The reality is restrictions are still in place across most maternity hospitals. Women still alone. Abuse. #BetterMaternityCare

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

WTF?! @DonnellyStephen @paulreiddublin @rte are you well? Cause it seems as though only a very sick person would allow this to happen on their watch. #BetterMaternityCare

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

I just taken action to email Minister for Health Stephen Donnelly asking that he put an end to the appalling treatment of pregnant people and lift the maternity restrictions now - can you do the same? #BetterMaternityCare https://t.co/7KnK7Vrp6j

Pregnant Woman To Deliver Child Indoors In Pub So Partner Can Attend Birth https://t.co/KQbaeoECok

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

Fuming that this is still going on. Why do women have to fight so hard to be seen and heard! @DonnellyStephen why are you absent for all of these questions being put to you in the Dail - while you lie to the media about what's going on? Total abuse. #WhoseNeedsAreBeingMet

[Jennifer Whitmore TD @WhitmoreJen]

Govt cannot allow maternity restrictions to continue. There is no compassion with the current situation, where people miscarry alone; attend scans alone; labour alone. #BetterMaternityCare #WhosNeedsAreBeingMet @lindabtweeting @AIMSIreland @BirthMovementIE

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

Listening to women &their experience postpartum it's no surprise to see how they're treated during pandemic. Our culture &health service seems to only care about baby &neglects needs of the mother. Why is that? #WhoseNeedsAreBeingMet #MaternityRestrictions https://t.co/4IeK0z8MHM

[Alice-Mary Higgins @aliceeire]

I highlighted how weak definition of Climate Justice in #ClimateBill adds insult to injury for those in Global South who’ve done least to cause climate change yet suffer worst effects, Glad Minister has now agreed to delete it but must be replaced with stronger better definition!

@SEAI_ie @SEAI_ie can you tell me what the specifications are for sufficient upgrading of ceiling level insulation? It's a bungalow so I assume attic insulation is what we're talking about.

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

@SEAI_ie grant question. Looking into external insulation and can't find a definitive source of info on the requirements for this singular upgrade. Various contractors say you need to get condenser boiler whereas others say you just need to 'prove' boiler is efficient. #retrofit

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

@SEAI_ie Thanks @SEAI_ie - how do I find out / prove that the boiler is more than 15 years old and 86% efficient? It's a newly bought second hand house.

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

I'll try this again... @SEAI_ie @super_homesIrl @tippenergy @Jerry_MacEvilly @kruddock @Paulkenny79 - any help / links to more info much appreciated! 🌞

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

@kruddock @Paulkenny79 do you have any idea where I can find this info? It doesn't state anything in the application documents but the SEAI website is very confusing. I want to avoid spending / doing anything extra unless I have to.

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

Contractors say attic insulation 'up to standard' also a requirement but can't find any info on this. Rang @SEAI_ie & was told I need to get house up to B2 for ANY grant which is bonkers as that means upgrading everything. Help! @tippenergy @CommunityPower_ Who knows?

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

Partner of woman in active labour alone forced to sit in car while partner of another woman post birth in same ward is welcome to hang out all day. Senseless rules creating incredible harm.

@paulreiddublin @DonnellyStephen lift the restrictions NOW. #WhoseNeedsAreBeingMet ?

[AIMS Ireland @AIMSIreland]

AIMSI just received this message. Whose Needs Are Being Met in this situation? If the issue of restrictions is truly based on safety, ie. pregnant people’s risk factors with Covid, why are labouring women in postnatal wards? #WhoseNeedsAreBeingMet

[Extinction Rebellion Ireland @ExtinctRebelsIE]

Swimming season is up! You’ve heard of #BlueFlags for the beaches that meet basic safety and environmental standards. All 93 of them. Now XR #SeaChange brings you Poo Flags for all the other ones.

[Claudia Tormey @stormeyclauds]

What a treat to be included in this article talking about #ActiveHope in facing the #climate crisis. Essential tools for resilience & taking care of ourselves & each other. #EcoAnxiety https://t.co/HRLH0I3x6b
