Was in the Dáil today to watch the People Before Profit Bill on the abolition of sub-minimum wage rates for young people be discussed. Students as workers need to be paid #FairWagesForAllAges, rather than be paid less than minimum. Hoping the government don’t vote to delay this by 12 months!

First the government delays giving apprentices at least the minimum wage in the Seanad. Now it says to those under 20 years old should wait for the Low Pay Commission to come back. So called 'experience gaining' doesn't pay the bills. It should be #FairWagesForAllAges ASAP.

At the Le Chéile #IrelandForAll rally for World Refugee Day. A big crowd saying refugees are welcome here, even with a few far right pretending they can divide us. They will not succeed - The government must do such much more to welcome refugees and stop the death of so many travelling!

These ratings mean nothing, especially when students are dopping out because they can't find housing, staff are quitting their jobs because they spend years on insecure contracts, and universities are becoming profit-making ventures rather than places of knowledge and learning.

As the sun shines brighter, the days get warmer & trips abroad are on the cards, it's crucial to remember that EVERY body is beautiful 🌞 Summer should be a time to bask in the warmth and cherish the moments, free from self-judgment or comparison MORE ⬇️ 1/2

Last day! Today is my last day as VP Campaigns, after 2 years in the Student Movement. Grá mór to the Coiste Gnó, who I started with as colleagues, and leave as friends. A best of luck to Zaid, who’ll be taking over here from Monday and the new team who I’m sure will be great!

Let’s treat the Rent a Room Scheme re-introduced by Simon Harris TD as what it is. It’s an opportunity for homeowners, presented on a €14,000 silver platter, to exploit students. Listen to Colette outline the issues we have been raising for years about this.

The point of the poster campaign is to raise awareness of the need for solidarity with university workers and lecturers, especially early-track academics, and postgraduate researchers. They, like students, are struggling under the conditions imposed by the government. 1/4

We take any bed, this is how bad the situation is. At the same time tho, there is no shortage of students and student reps that have made it explicitly clear what is needed, and luxury is NOT.
