Today's EU PECH Committee. Small-scale fisheries in the EU and Article 17 of the CFP basic Regulation #SSF #islands #Article17 #CFP @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social youtu.be/6ZJhuinpglc?...

Back in Brussels to attend a discussion at a Joint AGRI/ENVI committee on a proposed new law relating to “Forest monitoring for resilient European forests”

I visited Bethlehem in 2014 and bought this decoration, a decade later it will hold pride of place on the tree as our hearts go out to Palestinians. #CeasefireNow

I'm at the PECH (Fisheries) committee. European Fisheries Control Agency (EFCA) are presenting their work programme for 2025.

Tough year for art sales and I depend solely on it for a living, so if you like anything I do, I'd appreciate if you'd keep me in mind when buying gifts for friends or family. If you hate what I do, I'd appreciate if you'd keep me in mind when buying gifts for enemies or nemeses.

After 25 years serving as Donegal’s Independent voice, the people have spoken. Thank you to my amazing team, my family and everyone who supported me. While this chapter closes, my commitment to our communities remains. Thank you for the privilege of serving as your TD.

An interesting snippet. He's @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social MEP co-option. So if Ming runs in #aras25, and wins.... #GE24

A good day for Irish Politics!

Can an alternative government deliver on housing, health and disability services? No one can say for definite. People have been let down so often. We do, however, know that this government hasn't and never will deliver. So you know what to do. #VoteLeftTransferLeft

Just voted for change in Roscommon/Galway. Also met another one of Andrew Mannions No.1 Voters! #VoteLeftTransferLeft

Reminder: Ireland’s PR-STV electoral system not only allows you to support the candidates you like - but also to punish the ones you don’t. If there’s a candidate(s) you despise, you can promote *literally everyone else* ahead of them by giving those rivals all the preferences on your ballot paper.

That’s the ☕️☕️☕️

We can change the destiny of this country; so that people can access healthcare, housing, and people with disabilities can access services, etc. This can only be done by ending 100 years of FG & FF. Tommorow I will be voting No.1 Andrew Mannion and No.2 Claire Kerrane.

I got to sit down with Claire Clarkson of What's Going on Ireland recently for a cup of tea and a chat about why we need a left government. Check it out here:

I am very proud that Ireland's left MEPs, @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social, Kathleen Funchion & @lnbdublin.bsky.social all voted against.

Thanks very much to @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social for giving his endorsement for the Dáil. We need to kick out FF&FG and take on the corporate interests they represent. If elected again, I will continue to be a voice for the oppressed and hold those in power to account!✊ #KeepPaulinTheDáil #ge24

Delighted to endorse @jamesrenaghanpbp.bsky.social in Louth. James has shown over the years his commitment to ordinary people, Palestine, and challenging the far right. He’d make a fantastic TD, but he needs your help. Please give him your No.1 Vote this Friday. Change is possible.

The consensus here seems to be that it's perfectly OK for men to have no accommodation. Nobody deserves to be on the streets. #RTEUpFront

We need a left government that'll take transformative action. We need to take on the interests of those who profit from the crises we face. We need a left government that governs in the interest of ordinary people, not in the interests of the few profiting from people's misery!

@jamesrenaghanpbp.bsky.social is an outstanding local candidate for Louth if you want real change.

Delighted to endorse @jamesrenaghanpbp.bsky.social in Louth. James has shown over the years his commitment to ordinary people, Palestine, and challenging the far right. He’d make a fantastic TD, but he needs your help. Please give him your No.1 Vote this Friday. Change is possible.

Heading to Strasbourg to vote down Ursula von der Leyen, commission designate. Anyone who supports Von Der Leyen is supporting genocide in Palestine. They're also supporting a commission hell bent on signing up to MERCOSUR. Shame on Irish MEPs who support this.

@thomaspringle.bsky.social is an amazing representative, Donegal is lucky to have him.

More of this please

Thanks so much to @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social and Isabelle for joining us on the canvass last night. If he ever wants a change of Euro constituency, he'll be elected in Dublin! #KickOutFFFG #VoteLeftTransferLeft #ge24

Big @thomaspringle.bsky.social on the latest #GE2024 #EchoChamberPodcast is out now everywhere. Donegal, listen up! A: podcasts.apple.com/ie/podcast/t... S: open.spotify.com/episode/2Cpt...

Started off my Presidential campaign in Tallaght😎

Weekly debrief 18th-22nd Nov 2024🇧🇪 🚜 Attended & spoke 4 times at the Agri Committee 📧 Met and corresponded with constituents. 🏚️ Caught up with Paddy Diver in Carndonagh regarding defective concrete. 💚💛 Canvassed with Thomas Pringle TD. 💙 Canvassed with Paul Murphy TD & Gino Kenny TD.

A chilly evening canvassing but well worth it to get @paulmurphy.pbp.ie back in the Dáil! Please get out on Friday the 29th of November and give him your No.1 Vote in Dublin Mid-West.

Spending this evening out canvassing with @paulmurphy.pbp.ie in Dublin South-West. Please give him your No.1 vote on November 29th!

Warm response on the doors this afternoon for Gino Kenny TD. Great to meet again with Darragh Adelaide who is doing brilliant work on the council💪🏼 If you are living in Dublin Mid-West please give Gino your No.1 vote next Friday!

Thrilled to be out in Arthur Griffith Park with Gino Kenny. Vote No.1 next Friday, November 29th in Dublin Mid-West.

Great to have @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social support highlighting the fight for 100% redress. Ming's endorsement reflects our commitment to fighting for real solutions, not just quick fixes. As your Independent voice, I will keep fighting for full redress and accountability. #GE24 #Donegal

Watch out for sheep in wolves clothing this election! Independent Ireland like to present themselves as a party that will stand up to the establishment. The reality is that they are just more of the same. They vote with Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, and then blame migration for the results. #ge24

Glad to have @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social out on the doors with us tonight in Dublin South West!✊

Looking forward to a day of canvassing ahead with Gino Kenny and @paulmurphy.pbp.ie #VoteLeftTransferLeft

A fantastic day on the campaign trail with @lukemingflanagan.bsky.social across Donegal - from Ballybofey to Moville. The message is clear: being Independent means answering to the people of Donegal, not party politics. For a proven, consistent voice that puts #Donegal first, Vote Pringle 1️⃣ #GE24

Finished up a great day of canvassing with @thomaspringle.bsky.social in Moville. Please give Thomas your No.1 Vote next Friday so Donegal can keep its Left Independent voice.

Great to be back in Malin, headed to Moville now @thomaspringle.bsky.social

Great to catch up with Paddy Diver in Carndonagh. En route to Malin now with @ThomasPringleTD for some more canvassing😃

Plenty of chats to be had in Buncrana regarding Palestine, transport, defective concrete and much more! Onto Carndonagh now😀 @thomaspringle.bsky.social

Had another #GE2024 #EchoChamberPod chat. This time it was with the very impressive Conor Reddy. Have a listen: open.spotify.com/episode/7b2z...

🏘️What we would do to take genuine action on the housing crisis! The landlords, the developers, the vultures and the banks have the housing market rigged in their favour. #ge24

Brilliant welcome for @thomaspringle.bsky.social in Ballybofey, headed up to Buncrana now.

Powerful words from Catherine Connolly TD about the crucial role of Independent voices in the Dáil. As an Independent TD, I've consistently challenged the status quo and spoken truth to power, showing how effective Independent representation can be. A consistent voice for #Donegal. #GE24

Headed up to Donegal for a day of canvassing with @thomaspringle.bsky.social Vital that Donegal keeps its Left Independent voice!

Simon Harris admits he hadn't seen the video of the savage attack by John McGahon when he referred to it as a 'scuffle', but he still sticks with him #RteUpfront #GE24

Independent Senator Eileen Flynn joined the campaign trail to help keep Paul in the Dail! Paul makes a difference, from water charges to exposing corruption. Paul is truly independent of FF & FG: He isthe only candidate in Dublin South West who has promised not to prop up FF or FG in government.

Stuck in the rain? We are too! We have to take a break from our daily canvassing due to the rain, so Paul's going to do a special online canvass! Come ask questions about #ge24! Live from 8pm tonight (ish)! #SpeirGorm #KickOutFFFG

Fresh from debating the key issues for Donegal on RTE. With so much at stake, it's important you know where I stand on housing, healthcare, defective blocks, cost of living and more. Find out why Donegal needs a consistent independent voice now more than ever: bit.ly/VotePringle1 #GE24 #Donegal
