Legendary singer, songwriter Christy Moore backs our campaign to make sure the Central Bank of Ireland does not renew its Israel genocide bonds deal on September 2nd. These bonds directly fund apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians. They must end this shameful complicity #StopFundingGenocide

People can’t afford to rent, and buying a home is out of reach for so many. This is the result of a housing system built on greed. We need homes for need, not profit. On 29 November, vote #1 Paul Murphy to demand real action on housing.

Micheál Martin mentioned DEIS plus about four times on Morning Ireland.
We’ve been campaigning for that since May 2023.
The FF Minister said no.
How many kids could have been helped? Why does it take an election for it suddenly to be a good idea?

Our health service is a joke. I can't get a GP appointment for my one year old son until Wednesday. So what option does that leave me with? Wait in A&E for hours where he could pick up something worse and add to the wait times there for people who need urgent medical care?

Go see the Wicked movie. It's absolutely stunning! Loved every minute. Possibly the best movie adaptation of a musical I've ever seen!

Not sure people realise how hard it's been recently for artists to survive, or how deeply appreciated every single order is. If you can't buy something, it makes a huge difference just to share our work. If you can't share our work, a little sacrifice to the Old Gods on our behalf means a lot, too 💜

Family carers are some of the most selfless people you will ever meet, and some of the most forgotten, ignored and left behind by our government and society.

Apropos of nothing, Áine, the Irish goddess associated with a legend where, when raped/assaulted by the King of Munster, she bites his ear* off and renders him unfit to rule as he's no longer "unblemished", taking from him his power.
