Consul General Ms. Sarah Mangan was pleased to address the Irish in Britain during their AGM being held in Liverpool today

Wonderful to meet with so many members and friends yesterday at our AGM Liverpool Irish Centre We celebrated the work of organisations across Britain that change lives through advocacy and creativity They make our communities stronger💚☘️ We thank you all

Good to see these adverts on London tube trains getting the word out as widely as possible about the Mother & Baby Institutions Payment Scheme Many survivors live in Britain & are entitled to apply & Irish organisations here can offer support More details: gov.ie/en/campaigns/2…

It's #InternationalMigrantsDay & our own community history informs our support for recognition of the contributions of all those who have built lives in Britain Diversity enriches society & we stand firm in reminding any & everyone that migrant history is British history

We salute the bravery of Gisèle Pelicot on the morning that 51 men, including her husband, were found guilty of rape and assault. Her courage at waiving anonymity & her grace have exposed systemic violent misogyny & the threat to women & girls globally. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Dear Adam Hills I fear that Rev Richard underplayed his brother's #spycops role on The Last Leg. The public inquiry UCPI focuses on serial abuses of human rights by police spies including Andy Coles, such as systemic sexual abuse of women and miscarriages of justice.

The story of the Birmingham Six was & remains a defining moment for the Irish in Britain. After his release Paddy Hill's remarkable humanity inspired MoJo, an organisation dedicated to highlighting miscarriages of justice. Ní bheidh a leithéid ann arís.💚 theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/d…
