Time and again the clear and obvious dangers that such provisions, which are meant to make us safer, have been highlighted. Time and again Ireland’s Government has sought to lead the EU into ignoring these warnings.

The Londoners who were furious when they read that free houses were being given to Muslims, Palestinians & other migrants don’t know @uklabour.bsky.social or #KeirStarmer very well. The account was a Reform TikTok so they’re a bit dim too 🙄

A very eye-opening follow-up: the account owner openly admits they were posting hateful content simply to develop, and monetise, a big TikTok account bsky.app/profile/jim....
This is an *exceptional* piece of work, and ought to be borne in mind when looking at literally any online ragebait in future.
A TikTok account that professed to be highlighting how 'illegal immigrants get free housing in London' was… well, not that at all.

The far-right don’t win when they win elections.
They win when centrist parties like Fianna Fáil adopt their policies to suit their narrative.
The Social Democrats will continue to push against far right politics moving to the centre – no matter what.

I hate Trump so much
This is overt racism. Full stop. There’s no ‘misinterpretation’ and no excuse. This is who he is, who he’s always been, and why he should never be anywhere near power again. And there’s a reason the tapes from The Apprentice have never been released.
