Entering into major institutional projects with Israeli universities like the Technion grants legitimacy to their active role in supporting Israeli occupation, apartheid and genocide, at a time when all universities should be doing precisely the opposite.

This is our "Neither King nor Kaiser, but Ireland!" moment. Say no to Irish children being sent to kill and be killed in foreign wars! #SavetheTripleLock #NeutralityNotNATO More info here: tni.org/en/publication…

A nice thread. The main reason imperial powers invest in the military isn’t to ‘put more money in people’s pockets’, or even to support private domestic industry like BAE. It's to de-develop & repress counter-hegemonic forces resisting the imperial system of capital accumulation.

We are used to hearing from a handful of prominent academics who support the removal of the Triple Lock and question Irish neutrality. Over 400 signatures to a letter stating the opposite suggests there is a different perspective that should be heard. rte.ie/news/politics/…

V'cenza Cirefice writes for Rundale about the Sperrins Public Inquiry and Transboundary Environmental Justice Slí Eile EJNI @TheGathering Friends of the Earth NI rundale.org/2025/03/06/spe…

PAC Inquiry further delayed. "It would appear that Department for Infrastructure will not be in a position to progress with the inquiry by 26 March 2025. We therefore ask that the Department confirm as to when it will be in a position to allow matters to progress."

We are excited to be speaking at the Oxfam Ireland Ground Up: Climate Justice Forum!  Lynda and V'cenza will be discussing extractivism at 2.30pm on Friday 11th April Register here: oxfamireland.org/ground-up-clim…   📷Where? University College Cork, Devere Hall #groundup25

The proposed gold mining activities in the Sperrins raise a series of environmental justice concerns… Incl. the failure to undertake proper transboundary consultation! ejni.net/resources/rese…

Breaking my Twitter silence to announce patrick bresnihan and my new book - out later this year w/ Bristol. Bogs, revisionism, empire, modernization, dependency, monopoly tech - turns out these are all prerequisites for understanding why there are so many data centers in Ireland

Robot submarines mapping the seabed for offshore wind farms and engaging in maritime surveillance. Ireland once again a laboratory of empire with the convergence of the energy transition, advanced tech and militarisation. ft.com/content/85f4dd…

99.5% of responses opposed 7 new licences (that's 2,163). Courts also quashed 3 licences. In our response we said this process for new licences was predetermined & unlawful. Now Economy NI has just approved 7 new licences!! Extractivism on steroids. economy-ni.gov.uk/publications/c…

Good to see Conor Sheils at The Irish News pick up on the completely undemocratic & legally questionable Economy NI decision to continue with their presumption in favour of granting toxic prospecting licences. DfE riding roughshod over 99.5% of the population's expressed wishes
