We are touched by the tributes coming in today following the passing of our President Miriam Duggan.
The clip below shows Miriam receiving a standing ovation at our Annual Convention last April.

I am one of the players you wrote about. It's sad to read this. I have a question how come BBC choose to interview the male coach who left us behind and didn't fight for us? we as women were at the risk, and now he is saying we don't deserve to be safe?
Evacuated Afghan women's team included "false" footballers, BBC investigation told bbc.in/42hoA3B

I was going to submit this for something but decided against it. So here's a poem about teachers' experiences during the Pandemic:

I joined the @socdems because I believe in the vision of @RoisinShortall and @CathMurphyTD for Irish politics & society. I understand this decision today but am also so glad they are staying involved.
So much love for these mná. 💜

If you're angry about the far right spreading hate & threatening families.
Its time to march.
If you're angry the government is utterly failing communities.
Its time to march.
If you're ready to celebrate the diversity of Ireland.
Its time to march.

It is absolutely galling to hear racist and far right groups use violence against women as an excuse for horrendous rhetoric and physical attacks on immigrants. Women are regularly attacked by Irish men, where is their concern then?

🧵Ahead of Ashling Murphy's anniversary tomorrow, we are calling for urgent action on #femicide.
Violence against women is an epidemic, and government must take steps to address it.

#Ukraine: Reporting from a war zone is incredibly hard. #CFWIJ is closely monitoring the region as #Russian forces escalate attack. These women journalists are following the situation on ground:

Stay indoors. But also return in person. Wear a mask. Not that one. The expensive one, that you can’t find. Take rapid tests. Which you also can’t find. But if you find them, don’t buy them. Rapid tests don’t work. You need PCR. There are zero appointments in your area.

There are just three public in-patient beds for eating disorders in the whole country. All are in Dublin.
People with severe eating disorders are being forced to travel to the UK to get the care they need.
How is this in any way acceptable? – at Cork, Ireland

Thinking of women attending the emergency room alone in maternity hospitals, and hearing the news that 100 people can now attend weddings. It’s the most lonely and terrifying experience and today’s news confirms these women are not Govt’s priority #bettermaternitycare

“Despite decades of equality legislation, women in Ireland still get paid less than men, decision-makers are still overwhelmingly male, and, of the 160 TDs in the Dáil, 124 are men. That power imbalance mirrors almost exactly the situation in private businesses.”
