Our friend, poet and activist Sarah Clancy, is on the Spectre, one of the boats on the Flotilla which was attacked last night. Contact the Taoiseach and Tánaiste to demand protection, there must be safe passage for all trying to break apartheid Israel's illegal siege of Gaza. #LiftTheSiege

Our next National March for Palestine is on Saturday 19th July. Join us! The government is feeling the pressure so we have to keep it up so they end Ireland’s complicity in Israel’s genocide of Palestinians and sanction the apartheid state.
Be there in solidarity! #FreePalestine #SanctionsNow

1/3 One of the best and most refined arguments out there for water in public hands. Worth the read.

Water should work for us but is really run to make rich people richer. Yet "nationalisation" isn't always the answer.

A remarkable interview with Dr Tanya Haj-Hassan, a paediatrician working in Gaza, following the killing of her colleague’s NINE children by Israeli forces.

Going to post this video in two clips.
