Reading tonight of the Irish who died at Ground Zero in 2001. Of the 3000 victims, a third were Irish, or of Irish heritage When a mother tried to locate her son by his Claddagh ring, the rescue team informed her that they had found “hundreds” of the Irish rings in the rubble https://t.co/AMQ0sa3spi #IrishHeritage #GroundZero #RememberingVictims #IE

Replying to SNP, Andy Burnham has again misrepresented the Good Friday Agreement: “Clear consensus” invents artificial supermajority threshold; GFA requires a simple majority (50%+1) The SoS has a binding duty: Annex A states they ‘shall’ direct a vote, not merely “consider” it #GoodFridayAgreement #AndyBurnham #Referendum #GB #IE

Re: AfD's advance The far-right feeds on the failures of Europe's neoliberal model Austerity & inequality have left too many people feeling abandoned The answer isn't to lurch further right, but to tackle the conditions that created this crisis and offer a genuine alternative #AfD #Neoliberalism #Inequality #EU #DE

Rallying to Drumcree on false hope and procedural technicalities serves no one Leading people into an inevitable defeat is a damning indictment of unionist leadership The sectarianism and violence visited upon the Garvaghy Road community will never be allowed to happen again #Drumcree #Unionism #GarvaghyRoad #GB #IE

Nearly 30 years on from 1998 it is pertinent to ask Micheál Martin why he is so opposed to the implementation of the Good Friday Agreement https://t.co/WbRVP3yHCq #GoodFridayAgreement #MicheálMartin #PeaceProcess #IE #GB

Seeing as Tory MP Katie Lam posted this on the 50th anniversary of the murder of Majella O’Hare (12yrs old) by the Parachute Regiment, I’d suggest she takes a closer look at the Paras record in Ireland before she offers any more opinions on keeping us “safe from terrorism” #Tory #Ireland #Terrorism #IE

Inflation? War? Supply chains? The excuses for rising costs constantly change - but the outcome never does. Big Oil doubles its profits, working families pay the price, and ordinary people get squeezed. Time to hold them accountable. #BigOil #CostOfLiving #Accountability #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

England fans: Spend 60 years chanting about German bombers and the IRA Also England fans: Have a total meltdown because someone wrote ‘Malvinas’ on a bedsheet with a Sharpie #FootballFans #Hypocrisy #Malvinas #GB #DE #AR

Mohamed al-Wahidi dedicated his life to relief, including sorting screens in Gaza so children could enjoy a rare moment of joy watching the World Cup Before kickoff yesterday an Israeli strike killed him Tonight, the FAI voted to play Israel anyway A shameful night for the FAI https://t.co/TyR0j2hQPb #Gaza #WorldCup #FAI #GA #IL

Braverman on the wrong side of history yet again Oxfam research shows British Empire siphoned approx $65 trillion from colonies - equivalent to over half of the modern world's annual GDP To demand reparations from the colonised is sheer delusion https://t.co/pIjMCWT5me #Reparations #Colonialism #History #GB

DUP blocking Good Jobs Bill at the Executive under the guise of "scrutiny" is a delay tactic The Economy Committee is literally the place for legislative scrutiny Blocking it behind closed doors isn't about improving the bill, it's about blocking workers' rights by the backdoor #GoodJobsBill #WorkersRights #LegislativeScrutiny #Therearenospecificcountrycodesrelatedtothetweetprovided.

Increasingly clear that Irish players want authorities to act to boycott this fixture Coleman spoke powerfully - Irish Govt and FAI should heed the message and support Irish players No sports washing #Boycott #IrishFootball #SportsWashing #IE

Local community, the council, and planners all warned from day one that turbines bigger than the London Eye in the Mournes were a non-starter Glad they’ve finally seen sense and withdrawn application #Mournes #WindTurbines #CommunityVoices #GB
