I would like to pay tribute to Catherine Corless for her tireless work in bringing these facts to light. Catherine’s dedication, courage and tireless work was vital in getting us to this point. sinnfein.ie/news/excavatio…

Ursula von der Leyen takes calls from war criminals while Gaza burns. How much more must Gaza endure before the EU acts? How many more children must die before Netanyahu is held to account? Suspend the EU-Israel trade deal now. Saoirse don Phalaistín 🇵🇸

Ireland has a proud tradition of neutrality and UN peacekeeping. While we must invest in our Defence Forces, this must not be a backdoor to militarisation. The EU at its core is a peace project, and we should not move away from that!

Over 250 children may have no school place, but minister refuses to confirm numbers... The Minister also couldn't tell us how many of the 92% (~3,000) children with SEN offers would actually have a fully resourced place in an actual school on 1st Sept. irishexaminer.com/news/politics/…

Vice President of European Commission should withdraw remarks on Ireland’s history – Kathleen Funchion SF "The suggestion that Ireland prospered in the post-war period without trauma or oppression is deeply inaccurate and dismissive of our island’s experience." sinnfein.ie/news/vice-pres…

The suggestion that Ireland prospered in the post-war period without trauma or oppression is deeply inaccurate and dismissive of our island’s experience. I have written to VP Kaja Kallas asking her to withdraw her remarks.

Honoured to host Amber Women’s Refuge & their ‘One Million Stars Ireland’ project in Brussels. This is the first time it’s been shown outside Ireland. ✨ Each star is a petition against domestic, sexual & gender-based violence. We hope it will inspire action across the EU. 🙌🏼

No child with additional needs should be left without a school place! The government must immediately expand the number of special school places, special classes and special education teaching hours across the state.

In Ireland, our native language is the lesser spoken due to imperialism, yet national planning still sidelines Irish speakers & Gaeltacht communities. I hope that the ‘Equality of the Regions’ initiative brings respect, recognition & real investment. #gaeilge #gaeltacht

It is long past the time for the government to prioritise investment in regions that are increasingly at risk of falling behind. sinnfein.ie/news/eu-commis…

🚗Irish motorists are paying almost DOUBLE the EU average for insurance, the highest it’s been in five years. Unsurprisingly, Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael in government are refusing to act. I’m calling on the EU to step in and demand fairness for Irish drivers. Enough is enough.
