  1. The #SocialDemocrats party of #Ireland dominated the opposition in one of two by-elections held on Friday to replace outgoing TDs (members of the Irish parliament), including a previously strong #SinnFéin, which saw its margin decrease significantly. Despite this, the future general election is now leaning toward a left-wing alliance that will address health, poverty, homelessness, and refugee issues, as well as take a strong stance against the #Israeli military regime. rte.ie/news/2026/0524/1575006-

  3. Self determination is about to get real in the UK:

    #SinnFéin, the #SNP and #PlaidCymru have held a meeting at Westminster to discuss what they describe as “a new era of cooperation between Scotland, Wales and the north of Ireland”.

    For the first time since devolution, the administrations in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are all led by nationalist politicians. This has been seen as a step towards making the break-up of the UK more possible’

  5. In Wes Streeting's resignation letter, he says, "For the first time in our country's history, nationalists are in power in every corner of the United Kingdom - including a dangerous English nationalism represented by Nigel Farage and Reform UK."
    To equate Plaid Cymru, Sinn Féin, and the SNP with Reform shows how little the Labour Government understands the public mood.

  7. @petealexharris The #UK wants to be increasingly friendly with the European Union #EU. The EU includes the Republic of Ireland. The Republic of Ireland could, through the EU, make refusing a #BorderPoll extremely costly for the UK.

    However, that would depend on the Irish government really wanting a #UnitedIreland, which, even though #SinnFein are currently in power, just ain't necessarily so.

  9. “With a world in crisis, genocide, ethnic cleansing, wars and starvation, it is important to remember that people across the globe throughout history have stood up time and time again to tyranny. Ireland must continue to play its part in that struggle.”

  11. Keep Left emerged from the Catherine Connolly presidential election campaign in 2025.

    Similar to Marriage Equality (#MarRef) and Together for Yes (#RepealThe8th), it's non-party, and aims at uniting parties on the left around shared common goals. Dublin Central is something of a test bed.

  13. @Alternatecelt It will certainly motivate very strong showings for all of #SinnFein, #Plaid_Cymru and the #SNP at the next #Westminster election, whenever that occurs.

  15. Sinn Féin Leader Mary Lou McDonald today called on the Taoiseach to condemn the US-Israeli strikes without qualification and state that they are in breach of international law. #Ireland #SinnFein

  16. I just can’t believe the level of delulu admiration some Irish lefties have for Putin’s Russia.

    I was talking with a Sinn Féin guy about GLUAS in #Galway. He asks where I’m from. When I say I’m from Russia, he goes, “Oh surely, you’d build this project in six months.”

    For fuck’s sake. Infrastructure projects in Ru take years, they’re built like shit, and millions are stolen along the way. Children’s Hospital? That’s literally your normal Russian infrastructure project.

  18. "If the polls are to be believed, the United Kingdom is in a very interesting position. By the end of May, it is likely that the largest party in three of the four constituent countries of the UK will want the larger polity in which they operate to break apart."

  23. It's all fair and well being the "Change Candidate" but you've got to have real change backing you up or the voters will drift.
