BREAKING: Police mass arrest protestors at the Ministry of Justice for peacefully holding signs which say:

"I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action"

The Terrorism Act is being weaponised to silence the public. We will continue to resist until the ban is lifted.

reminder that those who complain about people calling #Irish 'Gaelic', rarely do anything else for actual language rights (apart from bringing this up). it also shows their ignorance. they don't really care about the language...

good in-depth piece: irishlanguage.ie/gaelic-gaeil... #gaeilge
Can people call Irish, Gaelic? - IrishLanguage.ie
In short, yes. Saying ‘Gaelic’ for Irish is ok and you can use it. That in itself doesn’t seem like a controversial statement but say it in Ireland or

Our new President, Catherine Connolly.

A President for peace, justice and equality.

Well done to everyone in the movement which made this happen.

In her inaugural speech, President Connolly invoked our tradition as a sovereign, neutral nation, claiming that "Ireland is particularly well placed to lead and articulate alternative, diplomatic solutions to war.”

She has a popular mandate, not Corporate America or EU think tanks.
Worth acknowledging the fundamentally anti-democratic posture of so much of the mainstream commentariat in Ireland - far more concerned with what the US, UK and EU political elite think, than with what Irish people value and support.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

It's a Ponzi scheme. And these people at our universities have got us involved.

UPDATE: Basel Adra, co-director of Oscar-winning documentary “No Other Land,” says co-director Hamdan Ballal is receiving treatment in the hospital after being beaten by Israeli settlers, and then Israeli soldiers.

Soldiers “left him blindfolded and handcuffed” at a base last night.

Existence Shouldn't Be So Difficult 😭😭😭
We've raised over $200,000 in the first 24 hours of our campaign because people believe in our "far-left" ideas like Existence Shouldn't Be So Difficult.

If you've got $5 or $10 to spare, consider chipping in. We're powered by donors like you, NOT corporations: secure.actblue.com/donate/abu-b...

I know how much Irish people hate when people in the US, UK, or Canada talk about how they are 12% Irish, or whatever.

But everybody having some Irish heritage means one thing: Irish people have a reputation as the most prolific shaggers in history.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, you rides. 😘
