I can't share every fundraiser I'm tagged in but I'll do my best to share what I can
No joy with the naked eye tonight but it's definitely there #spéirgorm

Might be of interest to Galway folks on here. Even if you're not in Galway here's a good excuse to travel to Ireland's (second) coolest city.

Just look at this letter from one such landlord in the Examiner's Opinion Page and tell me that private landlords aren't dictating terms to the government #spéirgorm www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/your...

"The anonymous abuse I received for defending the CSAM platform shows exactly why my plan for digital IDs is necessary"

Wait. You're telling me the leader of this party isn't rushing to address the abuse of women and children? I'm shocked. Shocked I tell you. #spéirgorm

The housing crisis is killing the tourism industry. If people can't afford to live where they work they certainly can't afford to take on seasonal part-time work.
I only moved to Kilrush a few years ago and already several of the tourist attractions/services have closed down. Just one example in pic

If you have any relatives in the Banner county I'd appreciate you encouraging them to grab a copy and hearing me out.

Only 5 Fianna Fáil TDs voted to restore the Health (Regulation of Termination of Pregnancy)(Amendment) Bill. 35 voted against.
They're the only major party where none of the female TDs supported the bill. We have antichoice extremists at the helm. The work of Repeal is not done #spéirgorm

It seems to have been overlooked in the fox hunting debate but we had a Minister of State advocating for us to actively drive 2 native species to extinction. #Spéirgorm
Eradication isn't management. It isn't pest control. It isn't even the killing for sport of these species. It's extinction.

I wonder if there's any commonalities between these accounts sincerely responding to a joke about Ireland's leadership?

Both Tipp and Kerry gave him their backing. Strange as neither county has a strong record of getting behind disingenuous grifters...🤔 #spéirgorm

Taking more steps to learn Irish. Joined an Irish Langusge singing circle. I struggled to sing in the keys preferred by the women running the group but I was delighted by my comprehension of most of the general chat, if not the songs themselves.
Tomorrow I'm off to a Ciorcal Cómhrá #spéirgorm

The prologue to this book is more substantive and solution-oriented than the combined output of the last 3 housing ministers combined.
For fuck sake can we just get our shit together long enough to elect a government that makes Rory Hearne the Minister for Housing? #spéirgorm
