For anyone wondering why information about deviant behaviour only emerges after a well know person dies, the answer is the Defamation Act. There is often a wide gulf between what you know and what you can prove in a court of law. #SpéirGorm #speirgorm

So after tomorrow can we stop with the public outpouring of grief and get on with believing women again? #speirgorm

Barcelona is ending Airbnb as we know it. Rents soared 68% in 10 years, pricing out locals. Now, by Nov 2028, all 10,101 tourist rental licences will be revoked, returning homes to the local market. Owners – many of them absentees – challenged the move, but Spain’s Constitutional Court upheld it.

#Spéirgorm I'm glad Holly Cairns preempted the Taoiseach's go to distraction tactic. Watching the contemptupus way he speaks to her and indeed women in general, mirrors the misogyny that enabled this horrific tragedy. Accountability has already been delayed too long.

The Taoiseach knows that missing women and children who lived in Bessborough may well be buried there. Yet he maintains that he can't do anything to stop the site being turned into apartments. He's the head of govt: he holds the purse strings. It's time he stopped sitting on his hands, and acted.

anybody familiar with the attitudes of Irish historians, political scientists, and/or theorists? curious what the reputation of Oliver Cromwell is as a historical figure amongst those folks, and whether it's changed much in the last few generations

This is really stark and depressing. So many people in Ireland not benefiting from our so called budget surplus & strong economy. The child homelessness figures make me so angry. #Spéirgorm "Sadly not an April Fools" www.instagram.com/p/DWlpFCpCC6...

Irony is dead. Someone named Boycott will serve as sole chairperson after a foreign investment firm decided to remove an Irish TD for calling for a boycott. Once again, US capitalists demonstrate a pervasive influence on all aspects of Irish life. We need to start cutting ties with them #spéirgorm

If you’re traveling and spot ICE at the airport, start snapping photos. They aren't allowed to wear masks inside the terminal, which gives us a rare, massive opportunity for identification. Don’t miss the shot

Not only should Ireland refuse to play against Israel, Drogheda United fans should boycott their club until Byrne is reinstated. Let the US capitalists know they can't buy everything. Your integrity is not for sale. #spéirgorm

While people are screaming blue murder about some burnt out ambulances in London, this is what Israel is doing in Lebanon. Stop letting them distract you from the horrors they are inflicting in Gaza, the West Bank, Lebanon, and in Iran. #SpéirGorm

Just saw a tik tok from @sarahmcinerney.bsky.social saying there are 66 million worth of electric buses sitting in a garage somewhere unused. The waste of resources in the country is astounding. And yet the govt tell us an emergency payment for people with #disabilities is unaffordable 😡 #Spéirgorm
