Candles burning tonight in Dun Laoghaire for the female cyclist who was killed this morning in a traffic incident involving a truck. She was only in her 20s.

The housing crisis has many forms and impacts and it all goes back to the one cause- the failure of the Irish state to treat housing as a public service and a human right & handing to the market & investor fund.
We all need a decent, affordable , secure, energy sustainable, home

What a mess in beautiful #donegal . So many lives devastated. As Paddy Diver
said - it's just not right. Why is there no accountability? Darragh O'Brien Simon Harris TD Micheál Martin #DefectiveConcreteCrisis

Interesting day at Leinster House.

Was enough done to protect workers from the snare of Bogus SE?

No.

Was enough done to protect paid-up members?

Yes.

🚨Heart Wrenching: A child got shocked when he recognized his father who was killed by an Israeli air strike in Rafah southern #Gaza Strip.

NO WORDS ‼️

Simon Harris TD all talk about a spinal management unit, yet it is taking TD's bringing up Liam's name on the floor of the Dáil to get your attention.

Dysfunction & all the while vulnerable children suffer

Pamela Dennehy son Liam is waiting for a #spinal surgery.

Simon Harris TD Stephen Donnelly Bernard Gloster this is the ongoing state neglect of children with #scoliosis

💔 Another life lost.

‘Today Milly’s voice was heard’: Mother of girl (11) who died by suicide took High Court case to highlight mental health system

Happening now at the University of Texas in Austin:

Peaceful students are chanting “You don’t scare us” and “Free, free Palestine” in the face of militarized state troopers.

Niall Boylan provided a platform to #MollyMartens after she killed my father, subsequently causing ongoing harm to my life. I am the daughter of #JasonCorbett , who was abused by Molly Martens.

Aoife Johnston (16) ‘most likely’ would have survived if 15 hour-delay had not occurred at UHL, inquest hears

Who will be held to account for a third-world health service the Government believes is fit for the people of the country?

There are never any consequences

So there is still no date for young Liam’s surgery!

Housing crisis is a massive cause of misery

Defective blocks, generations stuck at home, 1000s homeless, no future of homeownership

We have to fight hard to keep that at the forefront for elections. Media and FFG love distraction of immigration, don't let them away with it

#LQs #Dail #UHL

Simon Harris TD you are invited to #Mayo .
A family near me have rebuilt. They are down €35k &the house is still not finished. They had no choice. No more money for rent. No SEAI grant available for them. It does not work. Make it work. Alan Dillon is aware of all of the issues.

The scandal of children left waiting in agony for surgery continues. We are a rich country, yet the state fails the sick, the disabled, the elderly and those who care for them daily.

This little girl is like this left traumatised from so many bombings. Think of the psychology effects on children 6 months straight from constant fear and bombs surrounding you 24/7.

I’m truly disgusted at the western world.

Pearse Doherty & Rose Conway-Walsh are 100% correct in their assessment here to Simon Harris TD about the defective grant scheme Darragh O'Brien set up to fix defective homes. Things have to change to allow families to move on

Mick Caul Pearse Doherty Simon Harris TD and if we did it would probably be falling apart by now too
