Jim saying it was fireworks this morning before it was definite what started the fire (flammable substance deliberately put on stairs & set alight) is illustrative of so much. Rush to minimise without facts. In the absence of them, wait. It’s as bad as it looked. So much worse than fireworks

The GRA was passed in 2015 with very little fanfare following years of courageous campaigning by trans people. We have yet to see any negative ramifications in society - and we won't.
We simply *cannot* have a President of Ireland who speaks about trans women or their human rights in this way.

I'm not linking to the article but Heather Humphries thinks the Gender recognition act needs to be looked at, and trans women are not women. #Aras25 #SpeirGorm

One of the less known aspects about the Easter Rising is that Indian students at UCD also took part & were then deported by the British authorities for it. Among those students was V.V. Giri who became president of India and said “when I am not an Indian, I am an Irishman”

Isaac, who apparently has the support of his employer & the elders of his church, wore a balaclava as he rambled around Ballymena, deliberately pouring hazardous waste on the street.

For those in Britain who's media don't report this "KAT" means "Kill All Taigs" - that means my family.
This is what the British Govt permit to happen to the Irish community in N. Ireland every year. Because the people doing it are waving UJs.
And we're lectured about the word #Kneecap for a band

This elderly man showed up to support an anti-trans bill in my home state and then, because he had to wait hours to testify, he was stuck listening to queer folks rally against it
By the time it was his turn to speak, he'd changed his mind
Never doubt that speaking out can change hearts and minds

Absolutely vital now, with LGBT rights under ferocious attack in the US & Britain, that the EU holds firm! Please sign this petition TODAY to ban conversion practices (aka conversion "therapy") throughout the EU. SIGN & SHARE, PLEASE!
Here's something that takes seconds and could have actual positive outcomes.
There is an official 'citizen's petition' system in the EU. There's one open at the moment to ban conversion therapy for LGBT+ people in the EU.
Ireland can be 1 of the 7 nations needed
