Hey Heather, slavery used to be legal in many countries, just because something is done within the law it doesn't always mean it should be fucking accepted. You absolute hypocrite.

This is rich coming from Minister MacNeill considering she was a lobbyist for the banks.

Humphreys came out yesterday and said she didn't capitalise on other people's misfortune, thereby going after Catherine Connolly for acting on behalf of clients as a barrister, again not some "non-disclosure" bullshit. Fine Gael are the dirtiest political party in Ireland. 2/2

Fine Gael are such absolute snakes, they went after Jim O'Callaghan too in the 2020 election because he had represented Gerry Adams, not for some "non-disclosure" bullshit. 1/2

Also, that is not what Heather Humphreys was saying yesterday.

Pivot, pivot, pivot.

No one cares that you're a protestant Heather, we care that you're linked very closely to the incredibly sectarian Orange Order though!

Very useful reminder that, apart from having a truly dreadful campaign, Humphreys seems to be a truly awful person.

I'd love to know what absolute galaxy brain in FG decided that the way to take down CC was on her barrister work around housing, given their shameful record on the subject.
Like, what the hell were you thinking?

'Barristers cannot discriminate': Bar Council responds to criticism of FF TD who advised Gerry Adams In other #GE2020 news, Sinn Fรฉin accused Mairรฉad McGuinnessโ€™ Auschwitz comments of revealing a โ€˜panic and desperationโ€™.

Youโ€™d be forgiven for thinking The Bar Council has a template ready for when Fine Gael uses a barristerโ€™s clients as political fodder.

Also a reminder how messy 2020 election was.

I want a journalist to ask HH if she has okayed this tactic of going after the cab rank rule and pretending they don't know about it. It's her campaign and she should be forced to answer for it

Sarah Carey, in the course of criticizing Connolly, mentions how many Irish journalists are paid to go on jamborees to Israel to get that genocide-performing nation's point of view, and I'd actually like to hear more about that please.

Heather Humphreys is simply, flatly wrong about this. And I'm gonna forever side-eye all the FG associates I know at the Bar (which is A LOT of people) if they don't come out strongly against this really pernicious undermining of the profession.

Remember how Fine Gael, who fielded an inept and uninspiring candidate, behaved towards Catherine Connolly in this campaign, and vote accordingly.
The sooner the Irish right has been eclipsed at the ballot box, the better for all.

Ireland's centre-right and Catholic right commentariat are very very angry this morning. It is nice to see them go through the pain the rest of us went through for many years.
