"If I cannot afford a weekly shop, no inclusion policy of that supermarket is going to help me" In today's Indo, I write about the need to fight for both economic and social justice - not one or the other www.independent.ie/opinion/comm... #Spéirgorm

New statement from Antonio Guterres... who says he's deeply concerned that the rules of international law have not been respected. Tony, the rules do not exist any more.

Front of today’s @irishtimes.com. Wonderful and crazy surprise to wake up to this morning!

I wish journalists would stop treating MHR like some funny, contrarian opposition backbencher from the bogs. He is a minister of state and one of the wealthiest and most unscrupulous self serving TDs in the dail. It's just a hat and an accent!!! Look past it please!!!

Reeling in the Queers x Deleted the “other app” finally for 2026. Really grateful for so many wonderful opportunities to get to speak about so many important issues across our island and afar.

Check out @jennymaguire.bsky.social in the Indo this morning. It's a very important article. The recordign referenced is shown below. archive.is/T27ap

For a union at a crossroads, we need to be calling for increased scrutiny - not less. In today’s Irish Independent. www.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

Back on Ireland AM to discuss the election this morning!

“And Heather Humphreys wants…a job” My commentary on Monday’s Tonight Show - watch the full segment here: youtu.be/4TsmpuSJhNk?...

My first article in the Sunday Independent today! Connolly will represent the people of Ireland - not the party of Simon Harris.

Here’s Jenny Maguire, the first trans woman elected to be President of the Student’s Union at Trinity College, Dublin, recommending voting for Catherine Connolly, the inclusive president we need! Jen is sound! #Aras25

Today’s Irish Independent.

TODAY!

“But why would they change? We can't vote against them from abroad.” In today’s Irish Independent.

Bród abú ✊

The 1998 OG Dyke March Dublin banner during the speeches. @moobstreperous.bsky.social holds one end, @jennymaguire.bsky.social holds the other. Jenny is a trans student leader, prominent in Palestinian solidarity protests in Trinity College. More in alt text.

“Our bodies, lives and who we love are being politicised. It feels as if the organisers of the larger Pride marches are the last ones to see this.” In today’s Independent. independent.ie/opinion/commen…

Mayo Pride 2025 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

I’ll be on the tonight show in about an hour to discuss Trump’s pause on student visas. We must resist all attacks on academic freedom.

We need to be providing a real alternative - not a barrage of messaging and false competition. In today’s Indo, I propose the need for a true coalesced opposition.

🇵🇸 WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT 🇵🇸 On June 4th at 9am, the board of trinity college will be voting on recommendations of the Taskforce set up after the encampment. We need as many of you as we can there. Please come out and support.

I interrupted Simon Harris’ address to the Defending Freedoms conference in Dublin Castle. The minister raised the work done by Ireland for LGBT people, then I asked “what about the queer people in Gaza we facilitate the murder through Shannon Airport”

When “order” stands at the heart of policy making decisions, our lives and spaces become compartmentalised. Anyone want to do otherwise is then criminalised. In today’s Independent.

My sea swim lasted 90 seconds not because I'm afraid of the cold, but because of my speed advantage as a trans woman doing a sport x

Bank holiday !

Chatted about the failed model of trans healthcare in Ireland on Ireland AM this morning 🏳️‍⚧️ As @conorocarroll.bsky.social mentioned, there is no clinical justification for how we treat trans people seeking treatment. We need a model that follows international best practice.

Spent my day discussing protest rights, Palestine, Serbia and the Occupied Territories Bill with MEP’s, activists and the UN special rapporteur on freedom of peaceful assembly!

Thank you for the support on the article! We must challenge oppressive rhetoric at every turn. We must build community not just in an active organising sense, but in our hope, courage and kindness everyday.

If my rights as a trans woman are able to be removed in an instant, yours can too In today’s independent: m.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

A great article by @jennymaguire.bsky.social on how to combat racist tropes. www.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

Columbia University’s treatment of Trinity students must be condemned by the entire higher education sector without apology. We must not be afraid to challenge the status quo when that status quo is Fascism. @tcddublin.bsky.social @columbiauniversity.bsky.social

Gaeilge cannot wait for the approval of English and American tourists. We cannot water down the fundemental pillars of Irish culture to appease international markets and profit margins. My article in the St. Patrick’s edition of the Indo www.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

Missing housing targets means nothing if the targets themselves are purposefully shite. Wrote about granny flats, falling living standards and asking your date if mammy and daddy (in the literal sense) are home - in today’s Indo! m.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

TRINITY STUDENTS SPRAY PAINT CAMPANILE DEMANDING A RENT FREEZE. College refuses to commit to a rent freeze - we will escalate to the highest level if a commitment is not made. All students and researchers received a link to join - and over 150 have already.

Watched “the match” today. Can’t wait for the next episode.

Jenny Maguire @jennymaguire.bsky.social was just on Newstalk there talking about political apathy towards trans people. www.newstalk.com/podcasts/hig... #trans #ireland

Thread: Important article on the status of trans people in Ireland by Jenny Maguire, President of Trinity College Students’ Union. Jenny is one of my heroines & a major voice in civil society. “I'm trans, but few politicians would now utter that word, let alone advocate for us” #SpeirGorm #LGBTQ

"...targeting a minority for political points" "Transgender people are entitled to safety like everyone else." "By allowing this hatred to go unchecked, we open the door for more and more groups to be targeted, until they finally target you or your loved ones" Beir Bua @jennymaguire.bsky.social 👏

Fantastic piece from @jennymaguire.bsky.social in the Irish independent, a rare and valuable case of a trans person commenting on trans issues 🏳️‍⚧️ www.independent.ie/opinion/comm...

An absolute must-read in today's Indo. It's striking how rare it is to hear or read the voices of trans people despite how much we hear about them and it's so wrong. The second last paragraph should also serve as a warning to us all. 🏳️‍⚧️

“If those in power want to protect women’s spaces, they should focus on the most dangerous place for women in Ireland-their own homes. We have seen the harm this State can do to those it believes should be hidden” Brava Jenny Maguire #TransRightsAreHumanRights #translivesmatter

“If those in power want to protect women’s spaces, they should focus on the most dangerous place for women in Ireland - their own homes.” In today’s Indo t.co/zhRpyOk6Io

We’re back at it today - this time with 135 balloons, filled with sheets of paper that link to our website: lensreportsnow.com

Today, TCDSU/AMLCT targeted The School of History in Trinity for their failure to accommodate students with disabilities. We will target schools and all of college life this week. If the college is made inaccessible, we will return the favour to management. Lensreportsnow.com

In today’s independent talking about Trump, inclusion and how we prevent the further institutionalisation of white supremacy.

Genuinely one of the best chats I’ve had for a while - give it a listen!
