Burning injustices:

New figures published today show babies born in areas with the highest child poverty rates can expect to live 5 years fewer than those born in the areas with the lowest rates of child poverty.

The cost of inaction in early childhood is high. Important article for people not already convinced watching ridiculous #GE2024 political promises. Investing in quality early years services, supports for families financially and socially will have the best outcomes.

Trumpโ€™s vote share is now at 49.9% with some votes still being counted. Looks like his margin over Harris will be around 1.5%- the third smallest winning margin since 1888.

Trumpโ€™s win was solid in the popular vote and electoral college. But it was not a landslide and it was not overwhelming.

โœจLittle reminder that Aontu exists because Peadar Tรณibรญn resigned from Sinn Fein because of its support for Repeal. They want to seriously curtail womenโ€™s access to abortion, and would overturn repeal if they could.โœจ
