Embarrassing and disgraceful that our government is endorsing and welcoming Trump's colonial 'plan' for Gaza. No mention of Israel not to mind its genocidal crimes. Also completely absent is justice, accountability, self-determination. We support the Palestinian struggle for freedom #FreePalestine

If the Palestine Action hunger strikers die - which they could do at any moment, as they are now very close to the end - it will be the government that killed them. Today’s column explains why. Please share, and write urgently to your MP.

Let’s be clear: if the Palestine Action hunger strikers die, the government will bear moral responsibility | George Monbiot
The three remaining hunger strikers have been convicted of nothing. Yet with astonishing cruelty, ministers refuse to listen to their reasonable demands, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Of course! An Ireland Thinks poll in today's Sunday Independent shows 79% of people support RTÉ's decision not to take part in Eurovision 2026 due to apartheid Israel's participation. Ireland stands with Palestine, always. #BoycottEurovision #BDS

FF, FG, Labour, Greens, and right wing independents voted to hike rents on the poorest households in Dublin City Council.
Tenants have to get organised to resist this government. Stand with your neighbours, and learn from the 1970s rent strikes!
"No way, we won't pay!"

Old Irish Grammar
The Advent Calendar starts at -1, before I came to Maynooth University @maynoothuniversity.ie in 2011. In 2006 & 2010, I produced two descriptions of Old Irish: my textbook Sengoídelc, and a concise typological grammar of Early Irish for the volume “The Celtic Languages”.

Ireland is so beautiful.
Just imagine how it would be if we actually protected and restored our nature, instead of killing it off everywhere, on land and at sea?

Shame on this landlords' government.
They have refused to ban economic evictions, they're allowing rents to rise faster than ever, while handing hundreds of millions to the developers.
Their friends are getting rich while children are growing up homeless.
We need FG/FF out.

Once again, we are way too relaxed about the fact that "shooting Irish people is good actually" is a mainstream political position on the neighbouring island.

Pressure on Egyptian government is clearly working. Keep it up demanding that we can march and call for the starvation of Gaza to be ended.

But what a disgrace arresting them for allegedly putting a sticker on an atm, of a bank - Barclays - that is complicit in apartheid Israel's genocide of Palestinians. #BoycottBarclays #GazaGenocide
