  1. Here's the thing with Micheál Martin: he simply cannot take criticism and often loses it when called out on his shit. The left politicians are right to call him out on his actions. He's more interested in his performative outrage than actually addressing the issue of the Triple lock honestly and in good faith. The leader of the Irish government needs to get his ego in check and do what is right for the people.

  11. 'Odrán de Bhaldraithe argues the recent pogroms in #Belfast are not an aberration but the latest expression of a centuries-long paramilitary tradition of ethnic-cleansing violence against designated “others”.'

  12. Mr. Harris: If you focus only on people "getting ahead", then by definition you are failing at least 50% of the population.

  13. #GerryAdams welcomes #RóisMáireDonnelly, #SinnFéin councillor and Lord Mayor of #Belfast

    "This podcast with Roís-Máire was recorded shortly after the horrific stabbing incident in North Belfast and before the racist pogroms which followed. It was also before the PSNI warned the Belfast Ard Mheara that her life was in danger."

  14. Does anyone really believe that if Micheál Martin and Mary Lou McDonald resigned today that their parties would replace them with someone less racist? Think about which voices are loudest in those parties at the moment.

    Long may they ineffectively reign.

  15. Deport anyone from Drumcondra!
    They have a history of being a very shady bunch intent on defrauding the nation.

  16. I've no strong ideological objection to nuclear, but as far as I know at the moment it doesn't make economic sense when compared with renewables backed up by energy storage (batteries, green hydrogen, pumped hydro etc.) and interconnects. But the absolute legal ban is silly and probably should be removed.

  20. Two masterful #StPatricksDay speeches in #NYC yesterday at Gracie Mansion from Mayor Zohran Mamdani and former Irish President Mary Robinson.

    Both speeches emphasize the importance of community and solidarity in an era when toxic individualism is lionized by the technobros et al. The current struggle pits the warmth of community vs the relentless pursuit of individual wealth accumulation

  21. Folks, making changes to the new circular before it gets released is what you need to contact your TDs and Councillors about. The 2014 doc is the justification for the SNA cuts, as it says SNAs are only to be used for toileting assistance etc and not for emotional regulation or focus issues.

  22. Simon McGarr completely captures the Irish government’s obtuse determination to do nothing in the face of the illegal and immoral behavior of many American tech enterprises

    While many Silicon Valley leaders are overtly supporting a democracy subverting American regime, the Irish ruling class class clings to a see no evil obtuseness as the techno spigot pours money in

  23. Fact is the Irish government are not doing enough to aid those in crises of recent floods. We are a cournty of high levels of rainfall and there needs to be better systems in place to address these issues. The Taoiseach is just giving excuse after excuse.

  24. @greenparty_ie

    There is a cynical pandering by mainstream Irish parties on issues of migration. It’s particularly notable in some of the stances taken by FG.

    Rather that combatting disinformation, some have opted for a me too embrace of fear based xenophobic politics.

    Its shameful stuff and a distraction from the glacial pace in governance addressing #affordability, the #HousingCrisis, physical and social #infrastructure, and #SocialMobility

  25. 1) The big question for any #Irish or #EU political party is why any of them are still on #X ?

    Why would any political party opposed to #billionaire capture of #SocialMedia platforms post anywhere other than a decentralized platform?

    The toxic #SiliconValley stack can be escaped. #Mastodon is an obvious exit ramp, based in #Europe. Why aren’t all elected officials there?

    The #NewsMedia will follow

  26. Kudos to Barry Ward, member of the Irish parliament and a barrister, for writing this letter which calmly lays out in forensic detail why X/Musk/Grok can and should be prosecuted under existing Irish law. He happens to represent my constituency and will definitely get a transfer if not a first preference at the next election!
