Ireland in the 1960s when the Church controlled the dancehalls. Jane Mansfield was considered a threat as a sex symbol and her show in Tralee cancelled fifty eight years ago.

#ireland #MotherAndBabyHomes #MagdalenLaundries One aspect of my #Legal #activism relates to Remembrance. In my latest Podcast I conclude that without “non-recurrence” in the proposed National centre, there is no true Transitional Justice frankbrehany.substack.com/p/a-silver-lin…

I spoke to an 89 year old gentleman yesterday who was born in #Bessboro. He visits Bessboro regularly, the compulsion to visit the place he was with his mother is very strong. He cried as he explained tracing her but she died 8weeks before. He showed me the sacred ground 1/4

Decision 2 years overdue for the 2 planning applications on the grounds of #Bessboro has been refused. Not to do with the historical nature of the property but because of the scale & mix of the development. WE ARE DELIGHTED. #SaveBessboro

1/5. Two survivors John and Marie are engaged in judicial review proceedings against the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability and Youth over the compensation scheme it approved denying them justice per State reasoning that they don't meet the strict criteria set out in

On the night of Feb 23rd 1943 a fire broke out in Cavan where 35 children and one elderly woman died. A local mum Mrs McKiernan died in 1937. 💔 Local priest advised that the two girls should go into the convent where they perished. 💔 #CavanOrphanage rte.ie/radio/doconone…

William was 37 days old when he died; his mum Madeleine only seventeen years #Bessboro Searching for decades for truth William’s family were refused an inquest but not giving up his mum is now challenging that decision. Plz support @ctcantwell & her mum #MotherAndBabyHome 💔

1/3 #MotherAndBabyHome #SeanRossAbbey “I was operating a tractor and levelling out the ground and up turned many bones, really small bones and the job was called off. I can’t say whose bones they were, I don’t know but I remember seeing them and that was it, the job was stopped

Had he survived #SeanRossAbbey #MotherAndBabyHome Eugene O’Brien would be 65 years old now. His death record dated 20/9/60 recalls choking while feeding on “probably porridge”. He was then five months old. 💔😢 #RIP #LostBabies Where is he buried? 1090 babies died in SR Abbey

Solidarity Geraldine! If any of my small following are still following Sean then unfollow me please as you are supporting a vile specimen who stalks, sends inappropriate DM’s & has numerous profiles on here.
