Stop the 'Mise Éire' event. (It's a fascist event under the thin veneer of Irish culture). #Drumshanbo said No! #Castlebar, it's your turn, say NO too!

Absolute state of #McGregor starting a petition to change the rules to enter the bid for the #Áras.

No worries. There's a counter petition.

I am obsessed with this video that Sayyed made. It expresses so well the sentiment in our county. Up #Mayo. Free #Palestine

Credit to Sayyed Qutub who made this beautiful snapshot of Mayo Celebrates Palestine on Saturday last.

This is what #solidarity looks like.

You should probably have a bit of respect for the UN and international law so. Pretty disgusting of you to inspect our troops while you dismantle the triple lock and enable the genocide in Gaza whilst feigning concern.

This is how society should treat people who apologise for Zionists today.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.

However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Mahmoud Khalil is finally home with his beautiful wife and newborn son.

Each one of the 104 days he spent detained was a grave injustice.

From the moment of his detention, @ccrjustice.org + @aclu.org engaged my office as we worked closely to help secure his release. They did remarkable work here.
