Child patients 'wrongly' put on waiting lists - John Mooney Report alleges misuse of National Treatment Purchase Fund. An internal investigation at Children’s Health Ireland (CHI) found that a consultant abused the state’s waiting list system while also delaying operations

I don't want to talk about starving children or murdered children. I don't want to talk about all the mutilated children. But until Israel is stopped, until their genocide of Palestinians ends, I don't have a choice. Why? Because I'm human and I can't in good conscience be silent

"In order for Israel to sell its war bonds in the EU, a member state central bank needs to approve the pros­pectus. That’s us. We are the home country that approves bonds funding the continuing devastation in Palestine" Gov must back Israeli war bonds Bill being brought forward

A report in the Sunday Times that a consultant at CHI delayed the treatment of children & placed them on his own long waiting lists despite other doctors being able to see them sooner in order to treat them privately using public money is beyond shocking. Tip of the iceberg?

"No financial motive detected behind volume of hip surgeries performed on children" Why would surgeons do unnecessary surgeries then? Just to traumatise children for no reason? Do I smell a cover-up of criminal medical behaviour 🤔

Israel destroying all means of life and livelihoods. And no one doing a thing to stop them.

British doctor in Gaza is accusing the political class of being complicit in genocide. He's correct. "They have never been here, they've never seen with their own eyes what is going on, heard the screams, smelt the rotting flesh, shuddered from the constant bombardment."

"A threat to free speech, a threat to media freedom, and even a threat to the Good Friday Agreement."

The BBC should be utterly ashamed of themselves. Forcing a man with the utmost integrity and humanity out for speaking the truth about the crimes of Israel. BBC

Do you think we should learn from the disastrous mistakes of the past, or should we repeat them?

Happy birthday, Jeremy. Jeremy Corbyn Thanks for all you do. A towering moral presence in a world that’s dark in places. #StandingWithCorbyn

My middle son is heading to a festival at the weekend and we spent last night painting. I was touching up the boots his younger brother designed for him, and he started painting a jacket. I'm proud to have raised sons who refuse to punch down❤️ 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

In June '23 govt ran the forum instead of a citizens' assembly on neutrality as originally suggested by Micheál Martin in '22. Critics of the event, incl Michael D. Higgins, accused govt of trying to bypass public opinion on neutrality. #WarOnNeutrality ontheditch.com/arms-lobbyists…
