We're immensely grateful to photographer Simon Robinson for capturing our wonderful speakers at last week's "Day of the Imprisoned Writer" event Dublin Book Festival. We are hopeful that İlhan Sami Çomak's appeal hearing on 26th November will set him free. #FreeThePoet #freeilhansami

Thanks to Conor Pope of the The Irish Times for these words on Kennys.ie in today's list of 100 Irish websites to shop with this Christmas - a brilliant list in today's paper and online.

There is huge discrimination in Ireland against people with disabilities, intellectual & physical, in healthcare, education, employment, housing, advocacy, in every way possible. Access, transport, toileting, parking spaces, disability allowance & indirectly carer’s allowance.

Moving over to Bluesky... Hope to see you there! bsky.app/profile/lindsa…

That's terrible. ❤️
