What?! I’m starting to lose track of the state agencies that cock up taxpayer’s money to the tune of millions with zero accountability under FG and FF, but the Road Safety Authority??!

“The party also brought forward a plan for the arts…” They sure did! Check out Sinn Féin’s 4D Arts Policy rooted in republican principles, with 10 top priorities for supporting Irish artists, and distinct priorities for different artforms. Aengus O Snodaigh TD 🎭💃🏻🎶📚🎥🎨

Hero. Delighted to hear this.

Sinn Féin TD says violence in Dublin city 'far too common' after tourists suffer racist attack (via TheJournal.ie) jrnl.ie/6488850

Sinn Féin would invest €1 billion of the Apple Tax money into an 'equality for communities' fund. We would use this to invest in working class communities left behind by Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil & to deliver the sports, arts & play spaces that these communities rightly deserve.

The EU has put a Fianna Fáiler in charge of “anti corruption” and standing up for consumers against corporations 😭😭😭 Do they not know???!

Ireland reacts:

Náireach nach bhfreagróidh an tAire Tithíochta ceist faoin dTithíocht Gaeltachta – Aengus O Snodaigh TD “Léiriú atá ann ar an easpa muiníne atá ag an Aire O’Brien ina gcuid obair féin, agus ar an easpa measa atá ag Fianna Fáil do mhuintir na Gaeltachta." vote.sinnfein.ie/naireach-nach-…

This is really incredible. Refusing to comment on a serious issue that affects the Arts sector. Total lack of accountability.

Drone-striking refugees in tents is terrorism. Bombing displaced people in a designated “safe zone” is terrorism. Sniping children is terrorism. Shooting starving people as they queue for food is terrorism. Rigging pagers to explode in public places is terrorism.

So I’m seeing Irish media discuss Michael McGrath’s appointment as Commissioner for Democracy, but I’m not seeing any talk about Finland’s Henna Virkkunen has also been appointed Commissioner for Democracy, and outranks McGrath as a VP. Is McGrath her Junior or what?

Anyone interested in corruption and the insipid role of consultancy firms intervening in western democracies should keep an eye on the French #CashInvestigation into McKinsey’s links to Macron’s regime.

Curious that, hidden in the bluff and bluster of this mission letter, the reunification of Cyprus is a stated aim of the EU. Could facilitating the reunification of Ireland be an EU aim? Why-ever would it not be, when the GFA acknowledges it as a legitimate aspiration? 🇨🇾 🇮🇪 🇪🇺

Concerning to see a senior parliamentarian having to stand outside the Finance Ministry reading out the part of the Constitution that gives him the authority to scrutinise letters the Ministry has refused to give him. The Macron-Barnier administration is undermining democracy 🇫🇷

Keep talking about Palestine. Keep protesting.

Also, pity the Labour Party who were particularly vocal about a public model during the debate tonight didn’t look at it while busy wrecking peoples’ lives when they were IN Government.

This man, from the Indian Ocean island of Réunion, takes his place at the Presidency of the European Parliament, having always stood up for working people. A great moment in EU history.

Extremely concerned for the safety of our peacekeepers in Lebanon. We cannot risk our soldiers’ safety to Netanyahu and his out of control government. In their extreme violence and depravity against civilians incl children, they are operating beyond international law and order.

The Gaza Ministry of Health released a 649-page document with the name of every identified Palestinian killed in Gaza. The first 14 pages alone are babies under the age of one. This is not self-defense. This is genocide.
