I’m heartbroken to hear that Muhammad Khalifa has been murdered by Israel. Khalifa was one of the amazing #Gaza Kids that came to Ireland. He could achieved anything if Israel hadn’t slaughtered him. Sympathies to all his friends and family. May Khalifa Rest in Peace🙏💔 🇮🇪 🇵🇸
We warned @JamesBrowneTD that cutting funding for vital homeless prevention schemes would result in increased homelessness. Figures from @DeptHousingIRL confirm this is now the case. Councils now running out of funding which will make things worse! jrnl.ie/6763843
The biggest ever protest for #Palestine took place in #Galway today. A part of the world which knows all about a man-made famine. #GazaStarving #GazaGenocide @ipsc48

Great turnout tonight in the rally against hate. There can be no place on our streets for racism. Ní neart go cur le chéile 💪 🇮🇪

⚡️We have some of the highest electricity prices in the EU and now another hike is on the way! Yet Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael are set to cancel energy credits for struggling households in October’s Budget. This government is clueless to the every day pressures on working people.…
One more Palestinian journalist killed by the Israeli criminal bombardment. Adam Abu Harbid is the 232nd Palestinian journalist killed in Gaza by the Israeli army.

🇵🇸 The Occupied Territories Bill must be passed without delay! Today, the Foreign Affairs Committee agreed that the OTB must cover both goods and services. It’s time for the government to act - no more delays, no more excuses.
It was a pleasure to meet you @RepRashida ✊🏻 Through the darkest days, we hold tightly to our hope that the light of justice, freedom and humanity will prevail. We call again for an immediate end to Israel’s genocide in Gaza and for a future of peace, dignity and nationhood for…
Sinn Féin President @MaryLouMcDonald is not afraid to speak truth to power. I am grateful for her commitment to ending the genocide in Gaza. May we live to see a free Palestine and a United Ireland. 🇵🇸🇮🇪
This government is normalising homelessness. Today in this state, more people than ever are homeless. With 4958 of them being children. How long must this go on for before radical actions are taken to address this housing crisis and deliver the homes our communities need?
Amid US pressure, the legal arguments for including services in the Occupied Territories Bill are being teased out at the foreign affairs committee. The world is watching to see if it ends up as precedent-setting legislation or simply "window dressing” thecurrency.news/articles/19640…
I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…
The sheer intellectual collapse you have to experience to be faced with 122 international aid organisations telling you the same thing... ISRAEL IS STARVING GAZANS... only to decide they are ALL lying & that actually Benjamin Netanyahu, on trial for fraud, is telling the truth.
Dog Advocacy Ireland engaged with @DeptJusticeIRL requesting immediate intervention in this barbaric case of dog neglect & failed intervention from authorities with Kildare Animal Foundation. Regrettably, the Minister refused to act. Dog welfare has reached a breaking point!
It is becoming increasingly clear that the Minister for Justice is failing to make any progress at all in tackling the recruitment and retention crisis in An Garda Síochána. Figures released to me show that a grand total of just 7 extra members this year! sinnfein.ie/news/minister-…
A welcome announcement from France
Consistent with its historic commitment to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognize the State of Palestine. I will make this solemn announcement before the United Nations General Assembly this coming September.…
Exactly one year since the closure of the Dept of Agriculture's public consultation on a ban on Surgical Artificial Insemination on GREYHOUNDS in Ireland. Already banned for non-greyhounds in Ireland. What is the delay in banning this cruel abuse?
Deputy Dessie Ellis is urging the Irish government to ban surgical artificial insemination in greyhounds, highlighting its invasive and distressing nature—already banned in the UK. Over 500 such procedures were performed on greyhounds in the past 4 years: buff.ly/gl39cxl
