I will never back down in speaking truth to power.
The apartheid government of Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians. Palestinians will not be erased. Solidarity with all those outside of these walls in the streets protesting and exercising their right to dissent.

Blanchadstown Cllr Patrick Quinlan is captured on camera using abusive language and aggression on Gardai as they tried to ease the tension in Coolock.
He posts a clip describing the refugee centre as a “PLANTATION” centre referring asylum seekers to “SCAMMERS” .

This type of Cllrs should be impeached.

“Most men are good”
“Most men love women”
“Most men aren’t misogynists”
Then why do I, without fail, have more men arguing with me than agreeing when I say male violence is endemic?
Good men: where are you?

The dead can't be brought back to life. But it's still possible to save the living. President Biden announced today that he won’t supply certain weapons if Israel attacks Rafah. Even if this policy shift saves only one life: still, that one life might be your own. IT WAS PRIMARILY THE STUDENT DEMONSTRATIONS THAT FORCED THIS CHANGE. Let it weigh heavily on the conscience of every university president contemplating the expulsion of these students: YOU ARE PUNISHING YOUNG PEOPLE WHO HAVE SAVED LIVES THAT, BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD, MIGHT HAVE BEEN YOUR OWN.

166,000 vacant properties. 48,000 vacant for over 5 years.
The Government would rather leave them vacant, sweep tents off the street, barricade public space than use these buildings to house people - homeless Irish and asylum seekers alike.
Utterly shameful.
The Grand Canal has been cleared of tents, and barricades have been erected along the south side, more being put in place along the north side of the canal #GrandCanalOperation

1. Admont Abbey Library, Austria
Its architect, Josef Hueber, believed: "Like the mind, rooms should also be filled with light." To say his colossal Baroque library is the world's 8th wonder is hardly outlandish — it's the largest monastic library.

I left Gaza yesturday.
My heart and my soul are still there with my patients. I remember their names and their wounds. I will fight until they receive the treatment they need and the justice they deserve.
My heart is broken in ways I never knew was possible.

I still can't get over the fact that Western govts have supported and funded 42 days of bombarding, killing starving, denying clean water, fuel, medicines (including pain killers and life-saving antibiotics) to 2.3 million trapped civilians (including 1 million children)....

Irish people have an incredible way of brushing things under the carpet, but it is disingenuous to not speak about the elephant in the room when talking about Sinead O’Connor’s passing. Her son Shane took his own life in 2022 partly as a result of Irelands poor mental health…

My timeline is Palestine, socialist, feminist, pro trans, anti racist, eco socialist, Marxist, anti colonialism, anti borders, pro refugees, housing, health activism and I've never seen an evening where *everyone* is tweeting about one person -Sinéad O’Connor. She was a giant 💔

Nothing Compares 2 U. Heart broken hearing the news of the passing of Sinéad O’Connor, such an inspiration

Thank you Sharon. It has been a sureal experience. The avalanche of love for Sinead that rolled into the show from around the world was truly staggering. People can listen back to the programme here -

Last year, working in Ireland, having a pint in the cold outside a Dalkey pub with some new friends, a woman with purpose strode past us. Puffy parker zipped to the nape and her bowed head covered in a scarf. One of my new friends muttered an exclamation, jumped up

We are devastated to hear of the passing of Sinéad O'Connor.💔
Her powerful voice, fearless spirit and courage has left a profound mark on us all.

A great Irish poet and singer left us today.
She was beautiful, courageous and wore her heart on her sleeve. She was before her time.
Nothing will ever compare to Sinéad O’Connor.
Rest easy Sinéad.

In 2016, I was interviewed at two ‘world class universities’ for an academic psychiatry post. Both interview panels were all white. The first panel laughed at me, the second rated me as the lowest ranking applicant & ‘unappointable’. I never have been humiliated in such a despicable manner. In 2022 I received the World Health Organisation Director General Award for Global Health, the first psychiatrist in the world to receive such an honour. NEVER stop believing in yourself.

Farewell Irish Language
Only 57% of The Aran Islanders speak #Gaeilge daily, & most of them are over 30. It seems we have passed the point of no return.
I still feel compelled to speak Irish to my kids. Then, it's up to them...
