Israeli military restrictions and over 150 settler attacks in the past two weeks have prevented many Palestinians from harvesting this year’s crop.

Imo her personality was also a prob, plus her record; she was a terrible minister for Biodiversity + the interview where she supported fox hunting + hare coursing was a car crash. And; “I never stood up in the Dáil and spoke about any of those things (tracker mortgage + repossessions)”; so tone deaf
I noticed that the diff in the numbers for CC and HH was less than I’d seen in any other constituency bar HH’s own. Dun L has a lot of people who benefit from status quo so no surprise….
So delighted in the landslide win for Catherine Connolly in #Aras25, the Irish presidential election. We need progressive voices at all levels of govt in the face of the rise of the fash here and elsewhere. We do *not* need current govt to go Keir Starmer + outfash the fash.

Hopefully the message FG takes is that people want more progressive leadership, not that they need to become even more shitty in how they deal with migration
Yes, that’s my fear too.
Ha. I’d totally forgotten about Simon Hart’s til your comment - they were pretty crap, if I remember right(?)
What kind of journalist pits children against old people when both are equally deserving of care?
Is anybody ever fooled by fash election promises or is it just a handy “out” when their views are exposed as unpopular?
What it looks like on an election leaflet Vs what it looks like in practice
Looks like strong win by Catherine Connolly in Irish presidential election. 🤞A friend just put in group chat that Heather Humphries being beaten by spoiled votes. Don’t know if true but morto for her if so! Spoiled votes orchestrated by far right so can we expect FG to go full UK Labour fash now?
Ah feck, another bloody disappointmen… Thanks.
I can only think “Duh”!
Insane that he thought otherwise before!
Absolutely - just not the one who says she absolutely supports foxhunting and hare coursing because they’re “rural pursuits”, who is anti-trans and who, as Minister for Biodiversity, extended hedgecutting season!!

Narratives that underpin racial hate by scapegoating foreign men only serve to continue the historical gender relations in Irish society that have shamed and abused women. When patriarchy, sexism, and misogyny are racialised, we all lose.

You're not protecting women and children with violent protests
When it becomes routine to connect migration with sexual crimes, any incident is a potential tinder box

If you don’t vote today you’re assisting the far right in their campaign to discredit the election. Get out there and vote.

The lads trying to burn down IPAS centres are participating in a spoil your vote campaign today and if you don't bother your arse to vote cause you're feeling confident you will lend them a helping in hand in making their portion of the outcome look a little bigger.
Take a walk.

I sure hope this bears out. Heather Humphries is hideous.
I don’t know who the person is but she’s bang on.

Eloquently explained....

When you put it that way....its not complicated at all. Just inconvenient to your own prejudices whatever they may be.....though racism will be pretty high up there.
