Good morning. This is the beginning of the end for #Trump.
Finally, a rejection of his depravity, his corruption and his foreign wars 🇺🇸.

Today, I presented my poster “Who Gets Punished?” at The Hague University of Applied Sciences.
As a survivor of abuse in St John Ambulance Ireland and a survivor advocate, I used criminology to ask a question I've lived, "Why do the poor face prison, while institutions in Ireland that fail children face only reviews and apologies?"
One standard of justice. That's what survivors deserve.
Thank you to everyone who engaged with my poster and asked such thoughtful questions.

This is the number of patients waiting for beds in #UHL They are left on trolleys today.
No privacy.
No dignity.
No adequate treatment.
This is not healthcare.
This is not good enough.

3 Ministers who are disasters in their portfolios at home but swanning around Europe like royalty. The worst Govt in the history of the state.

The vast majority of people in this country don’t need a pay rise ..
We’ve a taxation problem..
We just need to keep more of our own money .. 💰
The government will take 50% of any pay rise anyway under the current system…
Wider tax bands are badly badly needed .

Hopefully his cancer has been caught early and the Pope will make a full and speedy recovery.
Pope Leo XIV has been diagnosed with lung cancer, the Vatican confirms.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Important context: The cancer was detected at an early stage and was surgically removed. Doctors anticipate a very good prognosis for Pope Leo XIV’s recovery.

Yep, the famously well paid clerical officers, minted teachers assistants and the wealthy street sweepers. We can’t afford to take a day off, but we can’t survive on a pay rise that’s less than the rate of inflation. This really isn’t hard.

MATT TREACY: Former President Michael D Higgins is getting a bit of flack over his objection to a proposed housing development close to where he lives in Galway.
He previously said those opposing IPAS centres were “sowing hate and building fear”.
