But the Government is ok with building on Bessborough despite the fact the Commission did not do the same level of Investigation at the site. Why is Bessboro not entitled to the same level of scrutiny? rte.ie/news/connacht/2026/07…

The electorate voted for Catherine Connolly to become our president. Not because of her keepyuppy skills because of her integrity. The Irish media could do with some.
We need to talk about the presidency. Nobody wants to do so. Not the government. Not the opposition. Not most of the media. Not those on the right. And certainly not those on the left, at least not while they agree with the views of the office holder. businesspost.ie/api/oc-post/…

Given that President Connolly opposed the totally empty carers referendum and was a key ally for carers in that campaign, she is one of very few political leaders with integrity on these issues. Family carers 'insufficiently recognised' - President rte.ie/news/ireland/2026/030… via @rte

6/6 It is the the State’s responsibility to investigate #Bessboro, outsourcing it to developers is not acceptable. Give closure to all who who were in #Bessboro,those born there, the Birth Mothers, those who died there, those buried there! #MotherandBabyHomes

Aside from the candidate it’s been a very good election for 3 other female leaders who backed Catherine Connolly. @HollyCairnsTD - the first party out to back the campaign, which is significant @ivanabacik - so committed to the campaign and faced down internal rumblings courageously and with ease @MaryLouMcDonald - the last to commit but gave it her all and the intervention was key.

Ireland deserves a President who represents our hopes, not our failures. Choose change. Choose accountability. Or choose more of the same.
