As a keen forager whose speciality is seaweed and sustainable sourcing I beg you to sign this. There are currently two corps with applications to strip the Irish west coast of seaweed. We cannot let this happen.

Please sign and share. #irish #ireland

"Seaweed forests are crucial for protecting communities and homes against coastal erosion, providing the bedrock of the food chains, being a nursery for fish populations, while also being a rich part of the heritage and folklore along the west coast."

Our next National Demonstration for Palestine is on Saturday 4th October. We will mark two years of Israel's genocide in Gaza, mourn all the beautiful lost Palestinians and rage at the culture of impunity that allows this. We demand sanctions on the apartheid state #SanctionsNow

Al Jazeera’s Salama among six Gaza journalists killed by Israel in attacks The attack also killed Reuters photojournalist Hussam al-Masri, as well as journalists Mariam Abu Daqqa & Moaz Abu Taha.

Apartheid Israel murdered five more Palestinian journalists today, a as a civil defence rescuer and a doctor. They knew who was in the building and they bombed it twice. With total impunity from the international community, including Ireland. #GazaGenocide

Who does this government serve? Protest crackdowns and neutrality debates spark outrage A speaking rights row, moves away from neutrality, and garda action against anti-war protesters are all signs of a worrying trend for democracy

If I must die,
If I must die
Refaat Alareer
you must live to tell my story to sell my things
to buy a piece of cloth and some strings,
(make it white with a long tail) so that a child, somewhere in Gaza while looking heaven in the eye awaiting his dad who left in a blaze-and bid no one farewell
not even to his flesh not even to himself-
sees the kite, my kite you made, flying up above
and thinks for a moment an angel is there bringing back love
If I must die
let it bring hope let it be a tale
