There is a very simple reason why the UK government refuses to acknowledge the genocide in Gaza. If they did, they would be admitting their own complicity in one of the greatest crimes of our time. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

Why is money dominating the Cop29 climate talks and what are the chances of a successful outcome on this issue? Some context here with input from Ross Fitzpatrick #cop29 #climate m.independent.ie/news/will-fina…

An excerpt from my SOAS lecture: "We cannot allow, in a way that is akin to a Clockwork Orange, that the live-streamed genocide and its associated apathy desensitise us to the violence, normalise the oppression, dissociate us from its moral failure, or to legitimise the

COP29 has been a disaster for the developing world. It’s a betrayal of both people and planet, by wealthy countries who claim to take climate change seriously. Rich countries have promised to “mobilise” some funds in the future, rather than provide them now. The cheque is in

Let's be absolutely clear, this finance deal is nothing more than an egregious denial of climate justice. Rich countries have strong armed developing nations into accepting a woefully inadequate deal that will further erode trust and hinder climate action. Shameful & unjust.

I’ve been told that candidates from various political parties, when asked about the Occupied Territories Bill on the doors, are saying that I’m “happy” or “satisfied” that the Bill didn’t pass in full pre election. So I’m sharing this for the avoidance of any doubt. We should

The statement issued by the French Foreign Ministry today saying that certain leaders could have immunity from the ICC arrest warrants is a big shame and constitutes a stark violation of France’s legal obligations under the Rome Statute. 1/4

Today is International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian people. The best way 🇮🇪 can show solidarity is through action. We urge the next Govt to urgently pass the Occupied Territories Bill - an essential step in beginning to address the decades-long, ongoing injustice in 🇵🇸

More poorly informed takes on climate from The Rest Is Politics Rory Stewart says climate finance for developing countries is "completely the wrong way" to "stop global warming". Instead G20 should have met for a couple more days to "try to crack this". A few problems with this...

BREAKING: Also Amnesty International concludes that Israel has committed and continues to commit the crime of genocide in Gaza: amnesty.org/en/latest/news…… Reminder: Political leaders and others who continue to support Israel as it commits genocide, maybe found complict in its crimes.👇

The message is clear as the Dáil assembled.

Short 🧵 on Ireland's declaration of intervention in South Africa v. Israel.

.Michael McGrath was clear in his confirmation hearing about his commitment to swift implementation of the #CSDDD Now Ursula von der Leyen risks undoing that promise. With 160+ CSOs, unions, and activists, we say #NoToOmnibus—corporate accountability is non-negotiable for a fair future!

I've been inundated today with questions about the Occupied Territories Bill, so let me get a few things clear. Firstly, it makes no real difference whether Government passes my legislation, or comes forward with its own. I honestly don’t care who gets the credit for it, or

It's just not accurate to say the Dáil was constitutionally obliged to elect a Taoiseach today. Micheál Martin is knowingly disseminating an untruth in that regard. As he knows well, the Dáil failed to elect a Taoiseach on three occasions after the 2016 GE. That might not be

The 🇪🇺 Commission’s Omnibus Proposal risks watering down critical human rights & environmental protections for victims of corporate abuse. On #SocialJusticeDay, we ask that Michael McGrath takes a stand against dangerous deregulation & puts people & planet first. #NoToOmnibus
