Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records. Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'. Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

So who'd have thought what we really need to solve the housing crisis that has been driven by an ideology (that puts property rights over human rights) & manufactured by government policy was another senior civil servant to add to Housing Minister & his 3 junior housing ministers #speirgorm

Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

"No one puts their children in a boat unless the water is safer than the land Remember that this is what the European Parliament, including the Fine Gael MEP’s, voted for. Horrible. Just horrible.

Donald Trump Jr, who has exactly zero experience or competence in manufacturing or defense, has received more than $600,000,000 in contracts from Pete Hegseth's "Department of War."

I know there's a massive amount going on but the government amending the arbitration act to sign us up to CETA needs serious coverage and the risks of corporate courts need to be spelled out.

CETA: a free trade agreement that is anti-constitutional and waters down our rights and protections so mega-corporations make more money. But we all win.

#NationalRally / #RassemblementNational "A good part of their money comes from #russia" YOU DON'T SAY..... Interesting how much of the global rot is coming out of these #EpsteinFiles

Massive thank you to everyone who supported us, & continues to, since @judesherry.bsky.social & I started this crazy journey You'll never know how much a difference its made to us We just couldn't accept housing crisis mantra "thats the way things are" when over 180,000 homes were wasted #speirgorm

Never again was meant to mean never again to anyone anywhere. To me it still does. #InternationalHolocaustDay

- The HSE has spent almost €1m on the upkeep of the former mental health hospital St Finan’s in Killarney since it closed in 2012. Why has it lain idle? 2/ www.radiokerry.ie/news/hse-has...

I spoke to Jerry on @radiokerry.bsky.social to share some thoughts on former Mental Health Hospital, St Finans Killarney, protected structure built during famine so deep cultural/societal significance Closed 14 years ago it should now become homes #DerelictIreland www.radiokerry.ie/podcasts/ker...

Two things to learn from this. 1. The rightwing newspapers are lobby groups whose purpose is to advance the class interest of their proprietors. 2. Lobbyists for the rich and powerful lose their jobs if they are not prepared to lie. www.carbonbrief.org/analysis-uk-...

With the EU-Mercosur Trade deal in the news again we thought we'd share some of our people powered research done back in 2020. #standwithfarmers #notomercosur ##SpeirGorm www.uplift.ie/trading-away...

NEW: The ICE killing of Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis, the Venezuela attack, the new White House Jan. 6 website—these each convey a powerful & unsettling message from Trump, Miller, and their crew: Violence is ours to use, at home and abroad, to get what we want. Beware. Please read and share.

They have no intention of stopping with Venezuela.

On January 3, 2026, the United States arrested Maduro and his wife as trophies, transporting them on a warship to be tried in New York for conspiracy to traffic narco-terrorism. Alarmed legal experts denounced this as an excessive show of force bordering on war. #ProudBlue #DV1

In case you didn't know, Dunnes Stores Better Value also means leaving 20 new build apartments empty in a housing emergency (since 2005) With yesterdays news of record numbers of families & children in emergency accommodation you'd think the Government would act But then it is policy #SpeirGorm

Imagine building a reputation for punching down against the vulnerable Imagine its Irelands Tánaiste & Minister of Finance doing the punching Welcome to the life of Simon Harris #speirgorm

Ireland's consumer watchdog has called for a new 'easy in, easy out' EU law on cancelling online subscriptions for everything from dating and fitness apps to betting, streaming and gaming. jrnl.ie/6905091t

This is another shocking example of the lack of vision or accountability in Ireland In this case its Dublin, it could be anywhere across the country We need to urgently invest in public luxury so everyone can #RestPlayWork #SpeirGorm

Sign this petition and lets build a big campaign against CETA 🙅‍♂️ The Government have PASSED the arbitration act ammendment to allow ireland sign up to CETA. Add your name to the petition and together lets be the people powered change ✊️ action.uplift.ie/campaigns/no...

A new report shows that Russian oligarchs are exploiting ISDS courts to resist the sanctions that have been imposed on them. So on the one hand the Irish Government talk a lot about their support for Ukraine while on the other hand, they want to lock us into these insidious courts through #CETA

Commemorative poster I doodled for tonight's fundraiser organised by IAFP. It features a Palestinian flag with colours made up of the Reeks, a keffiyeh design, and swirls from the Newgrange stone, representing Palestinian and Irish culture intertwined. Signed copies by the bands for sale at the gig!

Email TD's and tell them no to the secretive corporate courts that CETA looks to bring in 🙅‍♂️ action.uplift.ie/campaigns/no...

This must be the prelude to CETA, ask it after Simon and Micheál to ram it through at this hour of the morning!!

This is not good news Yet I can't find anything about it so far in any of todays online editions of mainstream Irish news What's the story? And F*ck CETA #speirgorm

After 10+ years of people fighting against it, this government is pushing through this dystopian CETA legislation. Corporations can and will sue the state for interfering with their profits - for example increasing the minimum wage, against fracking bans, etc. This is incredibly undemocratic.

I'm sickened that the government voted CETA through at 1am last night. It's an anti-people, pro-corporation deal that allows Canadian investment companies to sue us, the Irish people. So a Canadian company can buy up housing & sue the Irish state if we introduce rent controls. #Speirgorm #Speirgorm

A serious indictment of our politics and media that CETA, which has been adjudged to be unconstitutional by the Irish Supreme Court (Costello vs the Irish Govt), was passed overnight by the Government and there’s barely a ripple of curiosity, let alone rigorous questioning.

So… big news. (Keep reading.)
