  1. This #IrishTimes poll sets a record for the most blatantly partisan and mendacious framing I have ever seen in any #OpinionPoll anywhere about anything. 😡

    Despite the bias, 68 per cent favour the current model of neutrality over the loaded alternative option.

  2. "High-level talks begin for #Ireland to join British-led naval mission designed to counter #Russia … closer ties to #Nato nations such as #Britain are developing fast"
    The FF-FG govt is now openly trashing #Irishneutrality, with zero shame.

  3. NEW EPISODE:

    Ireland wants to remain militarily neutral. But neutrality doesn't mean defence comes without a cost.

    After decades of low investment, Ireland has serious capability gaps and relies on external partners for aspects of its security.

    Listen to our latest interview with Cathal Berry, Director of Public Affairs for Red Flag, former TD and former Irish Army Ranger Captain.

  4. The Irish government is making Ireland complicit in US & Israeli war crimes.

    As a supposedly neutral country, why is the Irish government still facilitating weapons overflights and the US military in Shannon airport? These must be stopped.

    It's no wonder they're preparing to scrap the triple lock shortly...

  5. Overwhelming public opinion isn't enough in the face of government's plans to scrap the triple lock and Irish neutrality.

    People have to get organised in their communities, in their workplaces, on the street to build a movement to defend Irish neutrality.

    The fuel protests proved very effectively that protests work. Militant protests are what is needed.

    #USMilitaryOutOfShannon #IrishNeutrality

  6. Absolutely spot on from @pbp_ireland. Our dependence on warmongers is crippling ordinary people. The cost of living crisis is the price of war. Time for energy independence and real neutrality. #IrishNeutrality #CostOfLivingCrisis #USMilitaryOutOfShannon

  7. The Science and Technology Act 1987 obliges the IDA and Enterprise Ireland to get Government approval if they want to give public money to companies who may be involved in servicing military activities. This Government wants to end that public oversight. 😡

    And note the #defencewashing of the military industrial complex.

  8. Irish politicians represent Ireland in the #EU. But #FineGael's eurobrains tell #Ireland to shut up. 😡

    Dr #EoinDrea's #IrishTimes op-ed tells Ireland to #STFU about #genocide in #Gaza, #EUmilitarization, & #IrishNeutrality. Drea calis Irish policy a "hot mess of uncoordinated gibberish".

    Drea says Ireland's 2026 #EUpresidency should "focus on process, not content". In other words: No policy goals for Paddy!

    #FG wants Ireland to be a servant of France & Germany. #iepol

  9. 75% of #Irishpeople support #Irishneutrality.

    #CatherineConnolly's clear support for undiluted #neutrality was a big factor in her landslide victory in the #Aras25 presidential election.

    Ireland's centrist media runs a propaganda barrage against neutrality. This is a rare case of 3 Irish academics being allowed in The #IrishTimes to make a pro-neutrality case: Patrick Bresnihan, Niamh Ní Bhriain, and Rory Rowan. #TheIrishTimes #iepol

  10. This is why we benefit from having the need for UN Security Council or General Assembly consent for sending DF members out into an international military force. Remove that, and we lose a key defence against that sort of phenomenon at EU level. #IrishNeutrality #TripleLock

  11. Get this: at the same time as breaking faith with us, they ask us to trust them as they dismantle the 1960 statutory commitment to working through the UN when it comes to sending Irish soldiers overseas with international forces. That’s a bridge I’m not buying. #IrishNeutrality #áras25

  12. Good reminder there, thanks. On the changes CB refers to, still of current relevance - www.iiea.com/images/uploa... #EU #TripleLock #IrishNeutrality

  13. “She is a person of principle. When she speaks you know that it is honest and from the heart. I think that she would make a fantastic president.” - John MacDonagh, Labour Party, Galway. #Spéirghorm #IrishNeutrality @catherinegalway.bsky.social

  14. Fine Gael's group EPP: "If Europe wants to be a serious geopolitical player, it must establish a unified military headquarters designed not only to manage crises but also to fight and win in high-intensity conflicts." #EU #Militarisation #TripleLock #IrishNeutrality #Drumbeat

  15. Example: Of the 80-plus speakers selected by the Dept to address the 2023 Consultative Forum only one publicly advocated maintaining neutrality. #speirgorm #IrishNeutrality #TripleLock

  16. “On the global stage, the country maintains a military neutrality (which prevents it from being an official member of Nato, one of only four European countries without membership), and a preference for using diplomacy to solve conflict.” #IrishNeutrality

  17. €150 Billion euro to be paid by the public to funnel money into EU arms corporations!

    The government is signing us up to 'SAFE', a European armament programme as part of 'Rearm Europe'.

    No debate, no motion in the Dáil, no say for the people. Disgrace.

    #NoToNATO #NoToWar #IrishNeutrality

  18. This is a proposal to hand €150 billion of public money over to the European armaments industry.

    It is a project of European militarisation that we should have nothing to do with.

  19. We need the #USMilitaryOutOfShannon.

    All the propaganda and rhetoric now reminds me of 2003 in the run-up to the US invasion of Iraq. We should have nothing to do with these imperialist warmongers.

    We will need a mass movement on the streets to defend Irish neutrality!

    #Neutrality #IrishNeutrality #HandsOffIran

  20. The European Commission's High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas, has suggested that #Ireland is attached to neutrality because the Irish lack an understanding of "atrocities, mass deportations", and "suppression of culture and language."

  21. The government claims we need to spend billions on fighter jets, bombs, and defence contracts due to an "imminent threat" to Ireland’s security. In reality, this push is about meeting NATO’s minimum spending requirements. Instead of wasting hundreds of millions on jet fighters, we should invest in our public services and the many social crisis affecting Ireland.
