Mozambique has 6 times Ireland's population but only emits a fraction of what we do. Saying the problem is overpopulation is crass and sinister. Data centres use as much water as small towns. It's fundamentally about how society is organised and how resources are distributed.

1. Low turnout 2. Some are happy with how things are (they own property, have private healthcare, not impacted by or even benefit from cost of living crisis)and always vote for status quo 3. Far right successfully directed anger at migrants/refugees for all those crises + hurt SF

RTร‰'s defence will always be that they want to present a balanced view, they don't endorse either side they just present the "conflict" as it is. Of course they'd love to share Gazan voices too, they're just concerned their reporters would be murdered by the IDF.

Scum landlord at Harrington street has turned off the tenant's electricity and water to try and force her out. The eviction is illegal. Get down there and support if you can.

@RobBurl This is how the BBC have decided to frame it. That sets the tone for the discussion. Neutral framing would be "Labour's broadband proposal" but this framing implies that it's probably a bad idea by using a scare-word. They * chose * to quote McRae.

This is what the #EvictionBan means in practice. A lot more at stake than tennis balls in a glass. This government is responsible for a level of cruelty that's difficult to fathom. #reinstateevictionban

Ryan Tubridy has had a good day at the Public Accounts Committee, so far. PAC seem genuinely shocked at the documentation provided by Tubridy and Noel Kelly. Tubridy and Kelly brought receipts. The dial has shifted firmly back in RTร‰โ€™s direction.

Proud moment today helping a couple of zionist motions get defeated at the @forsa_union_ie conference Referenced "human shields"+ "the Israel-Hamas conflict." May have seemed a sensitive issue to some delegates but I'm delighted we passed various concrete pro-BDS motions instead

We had a housemate once (Anja) who asked for a reduction in rent after riding the landlady's boyfriend (Jim). Then she moved in with Jim without paying her last month's rent. Then she hooked up with Jim's landlord, who got Jim to go to the landlady and get Anja's deposit back.

I spoke briefly at the rally. I called out the far-right specifically and the role they've played in whipping up hate for LGBTQ+ people in our communities. Journo rang me to ask how to refer to me and clarify my points. Seems they didn't make final edit ?

Rabharta Glas disappeared off the face of the earth the last few years prior to these elections. Considering they have essentially no strategy outside of elections, their showing was pretty poor. Good luck developing "a popular politics" tho ๐Ÿ‘
