Immigrants & asylum seekers are not our enemies. They are not responsible for the austerity, privatisation, erosion of civic life, thinning of democracy and concentration of power we suffer. But they're being punished for these things. Punished at the behest of the very people who *are* responsible.

Condemning riots isn't enough. We need policy action, including an immediate appraisal of X as a vehicle for coordinating far-right disorder. And we need political leadership, to challenge white nationalism as an idea, not to validate it daily and then complain when it turns violent.

No matter where you live (Ireland, UK, US, Canada, Australia, anywhere) racism will never go away of it's own accord. It's a cultural heirloom passed down through the decades. It's not other people's problem to suffer, it's our (white people's) problem and moral obligation to STAMP OUT. #SpeirGorm

Imagine being this disconnected from the cost of living that the average young person is enduring right now. Build affordable homes. Introduce rent caps, ban evictions, cap fuel prices, introduce a living wage. Nope. A pyramid scheme. Their mates in finance-land must be frothing at the mouth.

So, Roisin Murphy makes the statement that 'no one used the term "queer" unless it was to hurt someone who was gay'. I'm unable to ignore this. The following isn't about making personal comments about Roisin and it's not about the merits of the word, it's about challenging a lie.

OK so “queer” was reclaimed. It went from a slur - to a political slogan - to a broadened identity - to a market - to a HUGE industry. The first rule of markets is expansion, and I have seen the expansion firsthand, and the cynicism behind it in my industry; the music industry. As long as a market is expanding, it is very hard to to fight its negative effects. While the money is pouring in nobody wants to critique it, even its worst excesses, even authoritarianism and child safeguarding get a slide.

No one even used the term “queer” unless it was to hurt someone who was gay. There were some brilliant drag queens but they never said they were actual women. 
Oh and the parties were fun then. 🙄

Scrapping the Triple Lock would remove the guardrails on where Irish troops can be sent. It weakens our neutrality and sidelines the UN. If the Government thinks it has a mandate, let the people decide.
