Συγχαρητήρια στον κ. Πιερρακάκη. Μετά τον Πορτογάλο Centeno & τον Ιρλανδό Donohoe, συμπληρώνει την Τριάδα της Υποταγής των PIGS. Έτσι κάνουν οι αυτοκρατορίες: δίνουν τιμητικούς τίτλους σε υποταγμένους ως υπενθύμιση της ισχύος τους. Ο δικός μας τίτλος τιμής είναι το μίσος τους.

The Govt have announced they plan to pass the Facial Recognition Technology Bill through the Dáil on the last sitting day before Christmas. They’ve also removed most of the safeguards the legislation had at earlier stages and widened the scope of use.

The recent C5+1 summit was a new high point in US-Central Asian ties. But is this rapprochement real, or just risk? 🧵🧵🧵

I'm sickened that the government voted CETA through at 1am last night. It's an anti-people, pro-corporation deal that allows Canadian investment companies to sue us, the Irish people. So a Canadian company can buy up housing & sue the Irish state if we introduce rent controls. #Speirgorm #Speirgorm

Scandalously at 1am, the government has just pushed through a law with far reaching ramifications.
It allows them to sign up to a parallel court process only accessible by corporations. There they can sue Ireland if we do anything to interfere with their "right" to profit.
