We need commitments NOT to go into government with FF-FG, combined with clear left principles on housing, cost of living, climate, to offer people a clear choice at the next election. Ireland needs a left government that takes on the interests of those profitting off misery. #LeftGovernment #HousingCrisis #CostOfLiving #IE

Ivana Bacik proposal to SocDems and Greens to come together to negotiate with FF/FG is simply an invitation to repeat the same old mistakes of Labour. It would be a disaster. People want rid of FF/FG, not to prop them up. All on left should rule out coalition with FF/FG. #IvanaBacik #SocDems #NoCoalition #IE

Micheál Martin most worked up when opposing sanctions on a state that he correctly says is committing genocide. #MicheálMartin #Genocide #Sanctions #IE

The combined FF/FG vote in Dublin Central is the lowest in any by-election in the history of the state. Their more than 100 year rule can be ended at the next election. To do that we need left parties to rule out coalition with them and commit to supporting a left government. #DublinCentral #ByElection #LeftPolitics #IE

A big crowd outside the Dáil today demanding #JusticeForYves. We cannot accept anyone being killed on our streets. As many people also said today, this has to be the beginning of a movement against those trying to spread hate and divide us.

A powerful protest for unity outside the Dáil demanding #JusticeForYves As many speakers said, this has to be the start of building a movement against those that try to divide us. We have to fight to ensure that this can never happen again https://t.co/yLEGCb0Cqy #JusticeForYves #ProtestForUnity #FightForChange #IE

The government continues their approach of words without actions. These are the 77 TDs who voted last night against our bill to sanction the apartheid state of Israel (NOT included are those who didn't vote / weren't there): https://t.co/EYXUagEknw https://t.co/P0fcpxkmvR #GovernmentAccountability #Israel #Apartheid #IL

On the day that Irish citizens are abused in captivity after being kidnapped by Israel, the Irish government plans to vote against our #VoteToSanctionIsrael bill. Words are not enough, we must act in the face of genocide. We have to redouble our pressure to stop Irish complicity. https://t.co/7kAln0STDE #VoteToSanctionIsrael #EndGenocide #StopIrishComplicity #IE #IL

It's just not true. The government repeating their worked-out talking points doesn't make it true. They are making us complicit in genocide and war crimes. We need to full BDS on genocidal apartheid Israel. Join us outside the Dáil tonight at 5.30pm to #VoteToSanctionIsrael https://t.co/ikXA0FW1SI #BDS #SanctionIsrael #Genocide #IL

Is it any wonder that many immigrants and people of colour increasingly feel unsafe in our country? We cannot accept anyone being killed on our streets. Be there tomorrow to take a stand. #ImmigrantRights #StandTogether #EndViolence #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

This horrific killing happened in a context of a growing movement of hate & dehumanisation against people of colour. Just days before, Bertie Ahern was videoed saying “the ones I worry about are the Africans” and “we can’t be taking in people from the Congo and all these places.” #HateSpeech #Racism #Dehumanization #CD #IE

Our solidarity and thoughts go out to the family of Yves Sakila and the wider Congolese community in Ireland. People across the country and beyond have been left disturbed and reeling from the killing on Friday. Being suspected of a crime is not a reason to be killed. https://t.co/ciEhOCYFsJ #JusticeForYves #Solidarity #StopViolence #CD #IE

The woman in this video is Caitriona Graham an Irish citizen. This is how our citizens are being treated by Israel , having been abducted in international waters, trafficked to a third state and now experiencing humiliation, stress positions, aggression and violence. https://t.co/WYir3Ht7E7 #HumanRights #CaitrionaGraham #Israel #IE #IL

Why won't government allow a conscience vote tonight on our bill to Sanction Israel? They know there's a genocide happening. Do they want to continue trading with this genocidal apartheid state? Or to do everything we can to stop it? #VoteToSanctionIsrael https://t.co/1And5z516C #SanctionIsrael #Genocide #Apartheid #IL

This is the government's plan "working". They want rents to increase dramatically because somehow that will eventually result in more supply. Their friends get extra rich in the meantime. #HousingCrisis #RentControl #WeNeedChange #Nocountrycodesfound.

Does the Genocide Convention mean anything to them? The fact that the Irish government has acknowledged the genocide in Gaza must mean something. The fact that they are preventing ANY action being taken against the genocide makes them complicit. #VoteToSanctionIsrael https://t.co/C0vLN1HNwQ #Genocide #Gaza #Sanctions #IE #PS #IL

Will this 'examination' ever be complete?🤔 The Irish government is making us complicit in genocide. Our bill to sanction Israel will be voted on in the Dáil this Wed evening.

This government has neglected and refused to build social housing for years. Their plans will result in more people driven deeper into poverty. It's FF-FG policy to increase rents, that's why rents are being hikes in councils across Dublin. https://t.co/jGnk0oEGLa #SocialHousing #RentCrisis #DublinPoverty #IE

The Irish government is complicit. In the middle of the genocide, they sanctioned huge amounts of so-called 'dual-use' goods going to the IDF. We need full BDS. We should pass our Sanctions on Israel bill next Wednesday, but this cowardly government plans to oppose it. https://t.co/AIa2g32kiB #BDS #FreePalestine #SanctionsOnIsrael #IE #IL

Thanks Ray McAdam for confirming that @EoghanOCPBP was absolutely correct on O'Devaney Gardens. The government privatised what was previously all public housing. #rte #PublicHousing #Privatization #ODevaneyGardens #IE
