Sign the petition (linktr.ee/pbpdundalk) no tax breaks for vacant landlords!

Louth County Council is considering cutting the rates on empty properties in 2026. We don’t need to incentivise vacant landlords to utilise their properties, we need to penalise them.

Proud to have organised this public demonstration yesterday with 4AL/All Abilities Action Alliance Louth.

We have a simple demand, that every child with additional needs in Louth has an appropriate school place in September.

Oh christ, men I grew up with are now attacking me on FB for thinking Garron Noone said anything slightly unpleasant.

Dog whistling in full effect, y'all. It's working.

The fun game of: Is Lupus kicking my behind, or Ankylosing or RA or is it a wayward bug that jumped this chaotic vessel? Either way it’s one of the days you started well and in a matter of an hour your body is raging war. And even funnier no one would see it looking at you.

Not sending sick children in being portrayed as a bad thing. What on Borus green island. Parents working from home not dosing children up to be sent in? Bad too. Are they well, like?

Someone put a coddle on Rate my plate. And as expected it’s absolute carnage. Failte Ireland must have crisis meetings over this attack on the tourist industry.

FF/FG posturing towards Palestine is empty rhetoric. They have shown time and time again that they are willing to sacrifice the Palestinian people to keep US interests happy.

US corporate profits are more important than Palestinian lives according to FF/FG.

RTE tweet saying the attacker in stoneybatter had no asylum background, Sharon Keogan under it saying it proves nothing. Was he a "legal citizen of an illegal immigrant"

RTE tweet saying the attacker in stoneybatter had no asylum background, Sharon Keogan under it saying it proves nothing. Was he a "legal citizen of an illegal immigrant"

It's sad that we have this kind of coverage as if someone's asylum background has anything to do with their odds of being a violent person, and Sharon's comment under it proves it's not working in satisfying the people this type of reporting is meant to appease.

Looking for a man with a van always sounds tremendously dodgy to me.

Wonder if there’s a man with a van who has β€œthe cure” too.

Michael Martin is just some miserable …. Like all he does is suck out any last bit of positivity. Michael and his lads are fine. But yeah that bowl of shamrock surely must be worth it.

2/2 He’s a very lovely chap about 6 months old and despite his ordeal he loves our dog, other cats and kids. If you want to meet him let me know. He deserves a happy ever after. Here he is with our cat Miaowski. You can see his gorgeous colour. And remember All Cats Are Beautiful

If you’re looking for a new friend our latest foster might just be the one for you. Wee Cattucino who is looking like dark brown chocolate in the light found himself homeless and hunted by dogs. His brother still needs to recuperate from a nasty bite) A kind lady saved him and we took him in 1/2

Watching the German CDU doing the unthinkable of accepting the votes of a fascist party is something so incredibly wrong, unthinkable and yet here we are. Never again has been now for way too long

Delighted to see that Alice Mary Higgins (NUI) & Lynn Ruane (Trinity)should be returned to the Seanad. With the disgraceful dearth of women in Ministerial positions it’s great that we’ll have two powerful women’s voices / activists for the marginalised will (🀞🏽) be back in the Oireachtas. #speirgorm

You know the bright side of getting older as a woman is I don’t care about the sensitive little feelings of men about loud women taking their space anymore. Try me

Irish friends: do you know anyone who volunteered as a counsellor with CURA, the Catholic crisis pregnancy agency, in the 1980s/1990s? I'm hoping to interview people as part of my project on anti-abortion activism so please get in touch if you know someone who might be interested in speaking to me.
