The drive to turn more Catholic schools into Educate Together schools is being hindered by parents who are not interested in a Catholic ethos but still insist their children attend Catholic schools over multiculti ones.

Sinister people are buying up derelict property to fill with asylum scammers at tax payers' expense to enrich themselves.
We used to just call them gombeen men, and there's more than one gang of them involved in the racket, but it's good the gardaΓ are now treating them as criminals.

Irish redditor inherits a house from his deceased father who had been renting it to a foreign mother & son using HAP. She's been on the housing list for 14 years and has let the property go to shit which he's quietly seething over.
He's gingerly attempting to evict her so he can settle down in the house with his partner, but she has other plans for the property and wants to bring five more family members to Ireland to sleep on beds in the garage while they wait for the council to prioritise their housing due to the eviction order.
Howler of a thread especially as nobody will state the obvious as they banned all normal people years ago.
"She seems to think that I am going to house her, despite me clarifying more than once that I am not in a position to do so. So itβs been a frustrating relationship for me to maintain, but I am patient and understand that her circumstances are not ideal."

RT @DiarmaidOCon: Basically every week a homeless Irish person dies. No fuss.
But if someone in DP thinks their free meal and roof isn't up to standards, NGOs line up for advocacy. Or our courts rule that a foreigner didn't get enough free stuff. Not a word I use often, but this is sinful. https://twitter.com/DiarmaidOCon/status/1666155091353534475/photo/1

Tonight on RTΓ's Primetime we learned that 'direct action protests' are a novel concept in Irish society and they involve members of the public entering libraries and pharmacies to ask the staff questions about the products they're supplying.
This was Sarah McInerney's chilling opener:
"It's something we haven't seen before, ordinary people confronted by protesters who accuse them of being personally responsible for things they disagree with." π€£
No matter what level of spooky background music accompanied their blurred footage, it was always going to feel more like a lost episode of Brass Eye.
Apparently these 'direct actions' are being organised under the cover of 'unregulated' apps like Telegram and now even twitter so something needs to be done about it.
Their immediate reaction was to turn off replies to save themselves some ridicule.

At 00:45, RTΓ Primetime assert that Juno Dawson's 'This Book Is Gay' is a "sexually explicit book written for sexually active young adults" but what they don't mention is that 'young adult' is a library and bookshop category accessible by 12 to 17 years olds.
Children's Books Ireland removed the book from their Pride Reading Guide after deciding the book, which lists anal fisting and the consumption of human excrement as valid sexual experiences readers might like to engage in, was perhaps more suitable for children over 15 years old.
So even they, I presume, must think there's obviously some validity to the campaign by @naturalwomenscouncil against it being available to children as young as 12 in some libraries and bookshops.
Libraries Ireland and the Garda say the matter is out of their hands so who else are campaigners supposed to complain to?
At the end of this clip, an RTΓ journalist tells Ross Lahive that the book has been vetted as an educational resource for 12 year olds.
Vetted by who?

Maynooth University's Dr Barry Cannon saying the quiet part out loud in last night's Prime Time:
"We've got to shift the narrative back to where we want to talk about and not allow them to dominate our narratives too, and not to talk on their playing pitch."
He garbled it, but you get the idea.
They know they've lost control of public opinion and the only way they can get it back in the era of social media is through censoring and criminalising their political opponents.
But they can't just admit they're authoritarians and lock their opponents up as they have to maintain their facade of liberalism so instead we get Hate Speech Legislation, Online Safety Regulation and a Disinformation Act which are all vague enough so those in power can select who is guilty of breaching them.
They'll tell you it's all required to protect democracy but just not the kind of democracy where 75% of people oppose bringing in any more so-called refugees.

Just to give you an idea of what's coming down the tracks after the hate speech legislation β these are excerpts from the Online Safety and Media Regulation Act 2022.
It was signed into law by the President in February and is in the process of being implemented.
Here's what it gives the new Media Regulator the authority to demand websites remove:
πΉ Online content by which a person bullies or humiliates another person.
πΉ Online content which could cause a risk of significant harm to a person's mental health.
πΉ Online content which is threatening, abusive or insulting.
πΉ Online content by which a person harasses another.
A committee recommended that 'disinformation' be included as a category of harmful online content but were told this is being addressed through EU legislation.
