Great letter in today's Irish Independent. Almost a year after promising to enact the Occupied Territories Bill in the election, our government has yet to do it. We've been waiting for 7 years. #OccupiedTerritoriesBill

This weekend saw two funerals for Mirjana and for Paula, who died violently in their own homes.

This morning the awful news broke that Gardaí are conducting a murder investigation into the death of a woman in Cavan.

This cannot go on. One life lost is one too many.

#WinterSolstice
The Solstice reminds us of the natural rhythm of rest and renewal.
It is an opportunity to pause, plant seeds for the future, and find nourishment in the stillness of the Earth's cycles.
