Well shame on you all. Every one of you who voted to play. You're a disgrace and should hang your heads in shame. But you won't 'cause your a bunch of mé-féiners. #fai #IRL #NoToGenocide #freepalastine RTE news: Irish squad vote in favour of fulfilling Israel fixtures www.rte.ie/sport/soccer...

Jim Ratcliffe is still peddling the myth of "trickle down economics". Trouble is, he's a liar who never let a penny of his own super-wealth trickle down because he fucked off to a tax oasis. The poor don't get more if the super-rich pay less. The poor to have less so that the super-rich have more!

Yesterday we marched, demanding the FAI refuse to play against apartheid Israel. We can't accept the Irish flag flying alongside the Israeli one when what we see all the time is the Irish flag alongside the Palestinian flag, because Ireland stands with Palestine, always. #StopTheGame

"When freedom comes, we will remember, and future Irish Governments may yet be thankful for the stand taken by these wonderful young people outside Dunnes Stores. They have shown tremendous moral leadership and have become an important symbol to us all in South Africa, struggling for justice and peace…They have set an example to the whole world.”

A bomb damaged residential building collapsed in Gaza this morning. 8 are confirmed dead, dozens are injured, and up to 100 ppl are trapped under the rubble. The US just authorised $2.8bn in weapons for Israel. The genocide continues. The Irish football team will play Israel. #StopTheGame

Really disgusting this week that the government and Independent Ireland voted against stopping the game against Israel. We should not be playing against this genocidal apartheid state or the terrorists in the IDF. We should be leading the campaign to isolate them on the world stage. #StopTheGame

Talking to people in football recently, and most say a single nation boycotting Israel would have little effect - then when I ask "what about Macklemore and the Ed Sheeran situation?", there's a squirmy silence. What Ireland says does not matter one jot; it's what we do that counts. #stopthegame

I’m hearing a number of Irish sports journalists have let it be known to editors on moral grounds that they will not be covering any aspect of the Ireland v Israel UEFA Nations Cup games. #StopTheGame #Speirgorm #FreePalestine

What should be a blatant red card for violent conduct only gets a yellow & confirmed by VAR because, you know, it's Arsenal.

If the media wants a story about academia which is of real public interest, then they should cover the resurgence of race science, which is providing legitimacy for racism and eugenic ideology in political and public discussions. Unfortunately, there seems to be little interest in this story

"Taking a side can cost you. Money, brand deals, sponsorships, festivals, private shows, relationships and access. I've lost all of those things. But there is no neutral position between the oppressor and the oppressed," he wrote. -Macklemore. 🥰

The older I get the more I regret all the people I've lost down the years. Maybe being a tour guide wasn't the best idea after all

Brilliant thread from Guillem. No need to be losing our shit over a couple of results or the fact we're not playing at full tilt. I'm old enough to remember the fact we didn't get a win in our first 5 games last season or barely scored a goal with the players we just sold. This too will pass. #utv

So, makes his wife's confession on her behalf but it's really his way of broadcasting "I've got a big dick". Such a nice guy.

Six months since Alex Pretti was taken, and still NO accountability. His mother’s message is clear: NEVER stop fighting for equality and peace. Protect your neighbors, speak out, and honor Alex’s memory by standing up for your community! Justice for Alex Pretti!
