The question Fianna Fáil won’t answer in their push to abolish the Triple-lock neutrality protection. Why are they afraid to put it to the people?!

Drug Debt Intimidation is getting worse and too many families are living in fear. It’s time for a crack-down on drug gangs and violent criminals and for investment in services in affected communities. SF’s Dáil motion on these points was passed, it must now be followed by action.

So, I got some post today. No regrets. Standing up for what is right is always the right thing to do.

This is an important intervention from the family of Det Garda Colm Horkan that cannot be ignored. Their call for a public inquiry must be heeded.

Statement from family of the late Det Garda Colm Horkan tonight — They say: “All we are seeking is the truth. The revelations of the Protected Disclosures Unit members and others in the recent RTÉ Investigates programme has simply heightened our deeply held concerns.” 1/2

What kind of united Ireland do we want to build? Caoilfhionn Ní Dhonnabháin’s new book puts equality, solidarity and the public good at the heart of that debate. A hopeful challenge to think beyond the limits of the Ireland we know. Get your copy here: sinnfeinbookshop.com/product…

Fianna Fáil arrogance on full show tonight as they reject our motion to abolish carbon tax on home heating oil. They are completely out of touch. Sinn Féin will continue to fight for you and for ordinary families.

I have confidence in the people of the Garvaghy Road. I have confidence in the people from right across Ireland who stood with them to protect peace and progress. I have confidence in the vast majority of people in our society, from all backgrounds, who do not want to be dragged backwards. And I have confidence in my decision to support the Garvaghy Road residents. It’s 2026, not 1969. There is no going back.

So proud of the nationalist community of the Garvaghy Road. So proud to have stood alongside them. People from across Ireland and beyond have ensured that there will be no going back. Not now. Not ever. Onwards & upwards ✊🇮🇪

Instead of supporting people who get up early and go to work, Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael gave them a kick in the teeth in this week’s budget. Sinn Féin will continue to challenge them to support workers & families, build houses & deliver for our communities.

Good morning from the Garvaghy Road. This is a resilient community that has been traumatised too many times; they are deserving of all the solidarity that has been sent their way - keep it coming. Beir Bua 🇮🇪✊

Fianna Fáil & Fine Gael underfunding has left many local roads in atrocious condition while families are being fleeced with rising costs. I challenged the Taoiseach on this neglect again last week.

Over 15,000 people gathered on the Garvaghy Road today to send a powerful message: no going back! There can be no unwanted orange march down the Garvaghy Road. Sinn Féin will continue to stand with this community and their right to live free from sectarian harassment and intimidation.

Today, as Chair of the Oireachtas Justice Committee, I launched report on Supports for Victims of Crime. While progress has been made in strengthening victims’ rights, too many continue to face challenges in accessing support & compensation. Read report: oir.ie/4db26be

The residents of the Garvaghy Road have lived in peace for 28 years. Their right to live peacefully, free from fear and sectarian intimidation, must be protected. No going back. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever.

Those intent on forcing an orange march down the Garvaghy Road seek a return to the days of supremacy and oppression. They will not succeed!
