Senior HSE managers voiced concern about the advice given to service users by the Transgender Equality Network (Teni) and said the support group’s State funding should be reviewed because of this, reports the Irish Independent.
>While the NGS treats patients after detailed psychiatric assessments, Teni has advocated for patients, including under 16s who have parental consent, to be allowed to get hormone replacement therapy or puberty blockers from local GPs in what it calls “informed consent”.
>The NGS currently has more than 1,000 patients on a waiting list who must wait up to two-and-a-half years to be assessed.
>Senior Teni staff and its then-chairwoman Sara Phillips have appeared on podcasts promoting GenderGP, an alternative online service where doctors provide scripts for patients after a remote assessment.
>Michael Webberley, the service’s co-founder, was struck off the UK medical register in May for his failure to provide adequate care to trans patients as young as nine.
>His wife and co-founder Helen Webberley, was suspended for two months last week for failure to provide proper care to patients aged 12 and 17, and for failing to discuss fertility issues with an 11-year old girl.
>Moran said some patients who had started treatments obtained though online services had presented with “significant difficulties”. He accepted there was a long waiting list for the NGS.
>“This is an issue globally that demand is completely outstripping the development of the services,” said Moran.

The Twitter user who published JK Rowling's address while appearing to suggest a pipe bomb be detonated in her vicinity can be revealed as Irish "intersectional feminist" organizer and anti-abuse activist Shane Murray who announced identifying as transgender this past June.
Murray, who told gender critical women to end their lives, was certified in suicide prevention training and was promoted by UCD's Student Union in 2020 on their twitter account as member of End Image Based Abuse Ireland, Youth Against Racism, and ROSA.
Quite the CV.

Derek Blighe (@derekpublic) had volunteered his skills to renovate Kingston College houses in Cork until he learned none of the homes would be going to homeless Irish people. He spoke to Red FM about his decision this morning.
At one point the host (standing in for Neil Prendeville) remarks that once the Ukrainians leave, the homes can be used for Irish people.
1. There's no certainty the people from Ukraine who are housed in them will ever go home to Ukraine. Some of them aren't even from Ukraine and they won't go home now.
2. Even If the Ukrainians do go home, there's no guarantee the homes won't be given to the same type of asylum scammer who has been allowed to abuse the asylum system for the last 25 years. Minister Roderic O'Gorman has offered them their own homes within four months of arrival after all, while Minister Helen McEntee has granted amnesty to all asylum seekers in the system who have been here for two years, regardless of the merit of their claims.

Irish Leaving Certificate exams used to promote Black Lives Matter, amnesties for illegal immigrants and concepts like “white privilege” and “micro-aggressions”.
>For example, in the ordinary level paper, students were asked to examine two sources and answer questions about “undocumented” (illegal) migrants.
>The first source was an infographic titled ‘Live Here, Work Here, Belong Here’ published by Migrant Rights Centre Ireland, containing various statistics regarding illegal immigration in Ireland.
>The second source was an adapted extract from left-wing publication The Journal, which contained suggestions that a near blanket amnesty for illegal migrants currently taking place in the country might not go far enough.
>Among the host of questions pupils were asked to complete on these documents, pupils were told to “describe a citizenship project you could undertake, based on organising an event to raise awareness about the plight of undocumented migrants in Ireland.”

State Exams Contained 'Propaganda' Pushing BLM and 'White Privilege'
Irish pupils were presented with documents promoting BLM and the concepts of 'White Privilege' and 'Micro-Aggressions' in their exams.
Great publicity.
Should Ireland be lumbered with the Sisyphean task of housing the entire world or is the State's duty to the Irish people? Most Irish people will choose B which is why debates are never facilitated on the subject at election time, or ever.
The stickers read: "Ireland has a housing crisis while €16 billionaires have €30 billion. Homes for all. Not racism".
€30 billion might sound like an astronomically large figure to Coppinger, so large in fact that it has short circuited her brain into thinking we could house everybody in the world who wishes to move here if the State just confiscated it all — vote for her and she'll try.
In reality, €30 billion would build approximately 75,000 homes at €400K each or about a year and half's worth of demand.
According to Prof Ronan Lyons, Ireland needs to build 50K units of housing a year for the next 10 years to solve housing crisis. The demand for housing is driven primarily by immigration.
We could just cut demand.

It's good to see the INTO training guide for teachers about how to deal with kids who are confused about their gender is now gaining traction. Ivor Cummins discusses it below on his youtube channel (30K views currently). He wonders what age-range the children in the cartoon might be.
INTO's LGBT director Anne Marie Meenagh said when introducing the clip originally that the average age for children to realise they are homosexual is 12, but the average age for children "to realise they are not cisgender is much younger," suggesting that the guidance is designed for pre-teens.
Cummins believes they should really be bringing in professionals for this advanced type of psychological intervention in children who are confused about their gender.
The worrying thing is, the guidance probably was made under the direction of people who identify as certified psychological professionals. The agency tasked with creating content for Teaching Council’s 2020 Feilte conference where the video originally surfaced does have psychologists on board along with 'specialist educators'. That agency is called Real Nation (The Behaviour Change Agency). You can watch their pitch video here — "We are the operational arm of educational and psychological principles. We don't change people, they change themselves."
It's not clear whether they are responsible for that specific video though.
