Great news our Minister for Justice @OCallaghanJim is a heartless individual, thankfully the courts aren't and can see that the excuses being used are totally unreasonable. #LetThemStudy
The High Court has overturned a decision by the Minister for Justice to refuse a study visa to a Gazan student and ordered that the application be reconsidered and a decision made within ten days rte.ie/news/courts/2026/1027…

The only misinformation about this whole thing is coming from the government They dug a hole for themselves and now they're digging even deeper to try to find a way out
Minister of State Thomas Byrne has said Sinn Féin 'brought Dáil debate to a new low' over its 'misinformation' on a Bill to reform the triple lock system rte.ie/news/2026/1027/159698…

Quinn/ Anglo / IBRC In a scandal of this magnitude, it is legitimate to ask whether the courts adjudicated the full controversy or merely the version of it that the various litigation teams permitted them to see….

In front of her gang of masked men, @carlalockhart of the DUPedo party said: “Residents are entitled to go about their daily lives without unnecessary disruption from what is widely viewed as a deliberately provocative parade that serves no legitimate purpose within the area"
"Readers will no doubt remember Lockhart standing near masked men protesting against a sponsored walk from Lurgan to Newry to raise money for humanitarian aid to Gaza. She said she was there to prevent tensions escalating. "Irony of ironies, she signed a statement then saying: “Residents are entitled to go about their daily lives without unnecessary disruption from what is widely viewed as a deliberately provocative parade that serves no legitimate purpose within the area.”" Read Tom Collins: tinyurl.com/9f5hsmh8

Is the government is about to lose An Garda Síochána? They have lost the trust of the majority of the population due to their increasingly authoritarian narrative. They do not represent the views or values of the Irish people. They need to go.
Rank-and-file gardaí say they are so dissatisfied with their working conditions that they are prepared to commence a work-to-rule action for the remaining events of the EU presidency rte.ie/news/2026/1027/159699…

I call on the @PresidentIRL to resign instead of signing the anti neutrality bill and then run in the next election with the promise that she will do so again.

Just a few bad apples, not a government-led, systematic, societal problem — western governments would have us believe.

"In Gaza, the report found that Israeli authorities and forces continue to commit genocidal acts even after the so-called ceasefire agreement, with the intent to destroy the Palestinian people, in whole or in part. “The intentional killing and injuring of Palestinian civilians and destruction of homes in the West Bank combined with Israel’s persistent denial of responsibility form part of a broader strategy to exterminate and displace Palestinians and impose conditions of life that are unliveable,” said Srinivasan Muralidhar, Chair of the Commission. “Meanwhile, Israel’s expansion of territorial control in Gaza continues to result in the killing and harming of Palestinian civilians who approach or cross the Yellow Line.” "In the West Bank, the report found that Israel - through military operations reinforced by sustained settler violence - has waged a widespread and systematic attack against civilians since 7 October 2023. The conduct of Israeli authorities during this period indicates that they intended for military operations and settler violence to form part of a coordinated attack against Palestinians. "Torture, reproductive violence, rape and other forms of sexual violence form part of the broader attack directed against the civilian population in the West Bank. Sexual violence has been used with the intent to displace, subjugate and destabilize the Palestinian people. "Israeli forces have also deliberately killed and inflicted serious bodily and mental harm against children in the West Bank – as they have in Gaza – committing age-based persecution against Palestinian children." ohchr.org/en/press-releases/…

It beggers belief that the Irish Government want Irish troops to help Israel Ethnically Cleanse Southern Lebanon. The Irish people want no part in the EU's support for the brutal Zionist Settler Colonial Project still driven by Western Imperialism...
Irish troops should be deployed to Lebanon as part of a new EU mission and be involved in both peacekeeping and peace enforcement duties, according to the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Defence Helen McEntee. rte.ie/news/2026/1025/159679…

The more F/FG leadership resort to claims of 'opposition misinformation', the more it sounds like Trumpian 'Fake News'. They cannot deal with honest, entirely justified pushback against their unpopular policies. irishtimes.com/politics/2026…

Votes in the Dáil would have been more powerful. An #OrdinaryReferendum is what is required.
We got no say on #TripleLock but in June 2023 #Mehole invited two prominent #ChathamHouse affiliates to a 'Consultative Forum' in UCC to discuss 'security' or how to get #IrishNeutrality out of the #EUWarMongers way. Thread 1/4👇 #MaintainIrishNeutrality youtube.com/watch?v=F48QDbRd…
