How we die matters! If you're over 50, or have life limiting diagnoses, if you don't have an End of Life Plan, you're letting down yourself & your loved ones Consider thinkahead.ie or look at youtube.com/watch?v=ch3ND1… @EndOfLifeIE @IDsMAiD1 @DWDCanada @IMT_latest
Like…well done us 👌☘️🇮🇪☘️👌
So many of the US politicians are influenced by Israel. The fact that they have been so vocal on this Irish bill shows it is doing exactly what it was designed for, to challenge the illegal occupation of areas of what should be classified as the Palestinian state!

We’re only scratching the surface. Monocultural plantations may assist with carbon capture but are a fail on #Biodiversity A large network of re wilding National Parks could be a better way to go ?🤔 @IrishRainforest @IamtheGreeny #ClimateEmergency @IMT_latest @Independent_ie
One in three people in Gaza is going days without food — while 9,000 aid trucks sit waiting at the border. Starving a population by force is a clear act of genocide.
Killing 6 children at a water collection point can now be classed as a “technical error” if you’re Israel. For everyone else - it’s child murder.

Fair Deal needs to be extended now to include not just Nursing Home Care but Home Care Packages ? @IMT_latest @IrishHospice @TomClonan
I have discovered that there is zero support from HSE re night time care for patients with advanced neurological disease/ dementia - How can a family manage ? How can we keep him at home where he wants to be - How can change this attitude?

We love the facts Dennis 👌👍💕
Every economy is mixed. The US and Sweden have elements of capitalism and socialism. Sweden is more socialistic than the US. It also has a smaller population and its defense budget is 30% less than the US by GDP. Not criticism, just facts.

Weird priorities. President Trump is illegally withholding $7 billion Congress appropriated for afterschool and summer programs, teacher training and other educational needs. Meanwhile, he’s demanding a trillion in tax breaks for the 1%. That's not what the American people want.
Proud to progress our Domestic Violence (Amendment) Bill oireachtas.ie/en/bills/bill/… with fellow Senators from @greenparty_ie @labour & @SocDems -Violence against women & children is endemic in Ireland -One woman is murdered every month -majority by partners
It would help somewhat for some households if Fair Deal Funding could be made available for proper home care packages. Current 10 minute visits by Carers are hopeless… @IMT_latest
Heart broken/husbag is deteriorating daily- steep trajectory - fast losing his mobility-,- Inadequate support in community- zero incentives to care for our loved ones at home @TomClonan
