“They taught us to fear the witches, not the men who burned them” An important reminder from Gary Gannon TD



I'm delighted that Catherine Connolly will be running for president. The Social Democrats will be nominating Catherine and backing her campaign. connachttribune.ie/galway-west-in…

I’m delighted that myself and my Social Democrats colleagues will be nominating Catherine Connolly for President. She has the skills, qualities and experience to be a brilliant President. She’s a lawyer, a gaeilgeoir and a tireless champion for those on the margins of Irish society.




The worsening overcrowding crisis in prisons highlights the need for reform of a failing justice system. This year, we’ve seen the national prison population rise to over 5,528, with nearly 460 people now sleeping on cell floors. Gary Gannon TD socialdemocrats.ie/urgent-reform-…

On Saturday we celebrated 10 years of the Social Democrats. It was great to gather with members and friends to mark our first decade. In particular, it was a brilliant opportunity to mark the work and contribution of former TDs Róisín Shortall and Catherine Murphy.



Delighted to see national support for Limerick LGBTQ Pride Festival hosting EuroPride 2028. We’re proud of Cllr Shane Hickey-O'Mara for bringing it to Limerick Council and grateful to Senator Patricia Stephenson - great coordination between local & national reps to deliver for Limerick & the Midwest!

Today, Gary Gannon TD submitted his case against the Central Bank, which aims to end the facilitation of the sale of Israeli war bonds. The sale of these bonds goes against EU and international law. We need to ensure that "never again" means never again.

Bonds facilitated by the Central Bank are marketed to fund Israel’s genocidal campaign. Investors aren't warned of the legal and criminal risks of complicity in war crimes. This isn’t about politics. Gary Gannon TD socialdemocrats.ie/gary-gannon-td…

Today’s record homeless numbers are another shameful milestone and an indictment of this government. There were 15,915 people living in homeless emergency accommodation at the end of July. Shockingly, 4,958 of them are children. Rory Hearne socialdemocrats.ie/unending-recor…
