Do you have 2 mins for Palestine? We need to put huge pressure on new Minister for Foreign Affairs Helen McEntee to show that public support for the #OccupiedTerritoriesBill is huge, and that passing it in full needs to be her top priority as she takes office.

As Helen McEntee takes up her new role as Minister for Foreign Affairs, the most urgent item in her in-tray must be passing the Occupied Territories Bill. This must be passed as a priority, urgently & in full. Spain passed their legislation in four weeks. Why has it taken Ireland over 7 years?
We are still demanding that the Occupied Territories Bill is passed in full, including goods and services, urgently!
We won't stop until it is - it is the least the Palestinian people deserve. Enough of the delays, #PasstheOTB NOW!

87% of Irish people consider climate change a serious problem - yet we're way off track still to meet our climate targets
2025 Eurobarometer shows strong support for EU climate goals, renewables, & energy efficiency. Concern is rising about climate impacts, especially in Southern Europe.
Ireland shows above-average support, however there is a strong need for reliable information.
