A reminder that Minister Paschal Donohue reviewed Karp's book in the Irish Times a couple of weeks ago, describing it is as 'nuanced and provocative'. No mention of Palintir's active role in the genocide in Gaza or Karp's vocal support for it.

Overlooking the park in #Galway dedicated to the million Irish people who were starved to death by the British Empire in the 1840s. How grotesque it is that our "leaders" are doing so little for the people of #Gaza who are being starved to death by racist colonisers in 2025.

Glad that our Just Housing research project can help highlight issues that residents have been raising for years. But it isn't a lack of knowledge that leads to such dereliction, it is a lack of political commitment to public housing and tenants. rte.ie/news/dublin/20…

The Govt is trying to quietly destroy Irish neutrality. They know a large majority support neutrality, which is why they are sowing doubt and distraction. Join the Roadshow to learn more about Irish neutrality and to push back against the tide of militarism and war.

Micheál Martin (and his PR team) are acutely aware of the performative function of these words - how they deflect from the substance of his policies and actions which render Ireland complicit in the war crimes he decries.

It isn't quite gaslighting but there is something incredibly twisted about the Irish Govnt presenting itself as doing anything, even minimal, to help the people in Gaza.

Our third stop on the Neutrality Roadshow was in Shannon, where there were two US military planes at the airport. We called on the Gardai to search them, but they responded that no searches would be carried out. This failure makes Ireland complicit in genocide and war crimes.

Pat Brodie and I are giving a book talk this Wednesday afternoon in Goldsmiths if anyone is around London. 'From the Bog to the Cloud. Dependency and Eco-modernity in Ireland.' gold.ac.uk/calendar/?id=1…

Brilliant to see such numbers out yesterday for protest about conditions in DCC public housing. Individual campaigns have been organising for months from Ballymun to Cromcastle Court with CATU Ireland but as Bernie Whelan said in her speech - 'we're stronger together'.

This organising work by CATU Ireland is not just about housing, it also counters the growth of anti-migrant sentiment and the far-right. So many social problems are due to state abandonment and they need to be countered by universal demands for public services, including housing.

Up to date schedule for the Neutrality Roadshow Neutrality Now. The Roadshow has already been to Kerry and Clare, connecting with the decades long protests against US warplanes in Shannon airport and Shannon LNG (promoted by the over-inflated rhetoric of defence + security).
