Workers united are unstoppable. The trade union movement has proved this over and over again.

On Palestine their hands are tied by restrictive legislation. Or are they? Join us Saturday, Grand Parade at 1pm. Hear how unionised workers can once again change the world.

US policy no longer pretends to follow international law, or uphold human rights.

All pretences are gone.

Along with the EU and the UK it brazenly imposes a brutal imperialist, colonialist, boot on the neck of all those it can profit from.

A man holds a young child, both are obviously starving. Text reads in Irish Gorta Mór Gaza - Gníomhaigh Anois! And in English "Act Now!"
There are also photos of guest speakers Eman Alhaj Ali and Mick Lynch

Gaza is starving, Gaza is dying.
Men, women and children, our sisters and brothers, are gripped by a horrific famine.

Now there is nothing. Nothing to eat, nowhere to hide from Israeli plans of concentration camps and annihilation.

Make your voice heard. Grand Parade, 1pm Saturday 26th

Going to miss this week as I'll be marching with the Rosa Fight Back bloc at Dublin Pride.

It's amazing that after 90 odd weeks the people of Cork still run up in numbers ❤️🖤🤍💚

Bullshit. Certain people on the ASD can experience difficulty with cognitive empathy (understanding neurotypicals' perspectives) but that is entirely different from lacking affective empathy (the kind you're talking about) which is not an ASD trait.

Cork really living up to its rebel name with three protest marches happening this Saturday.

First a march against Gender Based Violence at 12pm, which will lead into the weekly Cork Palestine Solidarity Campaign march 1pm followed by parents demanding school placements for their kids ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻

Start with zero or two? Is zero even included? Ascending I'd presume but only from experience of interacting with neurotypicals. How many digits/when do you stop?

I am unreasonably frustrated by this 😂

Make HRT free of charge. The Department of Health promised that HRT medicine would be free of charge from the start of 2025. This has not happened and people who need HRT are still paying for it - up to €70 per month. This me...

A poster for Saturday's march and rally at the Grand Parade Cork featuring a drawn Israeli soldier pointing a handgun at a kneeling male figure. The head of this person is being rubbed out by a pencil eraser, the colour of the pencil is the Israeli flag.

Musicians shouldn't have gigs cancelled for expressing solidarity.

Performers shouldn't lose income protesting apartheid and genocide.

Illustrators shouldn't lose their lives for painting the truth.

Arts venues shouldn't block fundraisers.

From Gaza to Cork, artists resist Zionist occupation!

Yes, yes, evil, but just think of how your and other creators' work will be stolen to fuel this darker soulless world! Ya gotta be a little bit warmed by that right. How else are the poor billionaires going to become trillionaires? 😢
