Ireland is a cog in the wheel of an aggressive and reckless war.

Petition to get Met Éireann to not tell us when we reach day 45 of no sunshine.

We know. We all know. It's just depressing to have it confirmed officially.

Sign! For ECIs to be considered by the European Commission, each country must meet its threshold, for Ireland that's 10,080. We are currently at just under 6,000, approx 58%, so we need a big push! Belgium, Finland, France and Spain are there, let's get there too!

Finally some justice for Sean & the other defendants! The criminalisation of humanitarians & the racist European response to human beings fleeing is utterly shameful.

I did the same as Sean on the Greek islands during the 'refugee crisis'. The only difference was the level of media attention...

The Government is seeking to dramatically erode public right of access to justice via courts by imposing prohibitively expensive costs on those challenging unlawful planning or policy.

Today is the last day for making submissions, please have your voice heard.

Have your say by January 15 deadline.

In all our time in An Taisce, this is one of the biggest threats to environmental protection that we have ever faced. These proposed changes are clearly unlawful, undemocratic & unfair.

Tomorrow! Do not let them die. Join the EMERGENCY protest at the Dâil, Wednesday at 5.30pm. Support the Palestine Action protestors. In 1981 Margaret Thatcher presided over the deaths of ten Irish hunger strikers. Keir Starmer and the Labour party government must not repeat this crime. #FreeThemAll

Cabinet to consider major reform of Ireland's asylum laws Justice minister Jim O'Callaghan will bring the International Protection Bill 2026 to the first Cabinet meeting of 2026

In 2025 the country that Ireland received the most new asylum seekers from was Somalia. A country so dangerous that our own government's travel advice is, do not go there under any circumstances

Don't amend the Arbitration Act to ratify CETA I just emailed local TDs and demanded that they vote against amending the Arbitration Act to keep us out of CETA secret courts. Will you do the same?

Email TD's and tell them no to the secretive corporate courts that CETA looks to bring in 🙅‍♂️

Hello it's me the leader of the party full of landlords that has been in power your whole adult life and created the housing crisis we now refuse to resolve.

I'm here to tell you it's actually the foreigners' fault.

I need to put this out into the ether.

The people in the US who are taking on ICE in their neighbourhoods and physically defending other people....

I just love them.

Chicago, New York, everywhere. I think they're amazing and what everyone should be doing.
