My polite but angry letter to my local SF TD and to Mary Lou on the SF vote in Stormont against transgender youth. Please write to your SF reps and tell them no British imported transphobia! #Spéirgorm #Speirgorm #IrishPolitics #Ireland #TransRights #Stormont #LGBT #TransEquality
A Theactaí Dála, I am deeply disappointed to have to write this letter to Sinn Féin representatives, as I know Sinn Féin in general, and in particular the both of you, Deputy Farrell and Deputy McDonald, have been strong supporters of the LGBT+ community in Galway and in Ireland for the past few years. However the decision today by Sinn Féin in Stormont to vote with the homophobic and transphobic DUP, to fall in line with a transphobic British Government policy started by an extreme right Tory government and continued by a cowardly Labour government, leaves a stain on your good work in this regard. As a member of the LGBT+ community, and as a mental health professional, I am saddened by vote here, without taking careful time to consider the actual science (see eg, Turban et al 2020, showing that puberty blockers for transgener youth decreases lifetime suicidal ideation and Chen et al 2023, showing that gender affirming healthcare, which can include pubertal suppressants for transgender youth, increases appearance congruence, positive affect, and life satisfaction and decreases depression and anxiety symptoms in trans youth) and reportedly, without taking the time to talk with trans youth and their families and the LGBT+ community generally. The current minority strain of transphobia in Ireland is mostly a British import, from a transphobic media class with some backing from international hate organisations often with an extreme religious motivation (eg Novae Terrae Foundation, using laundered Russian money, to fund anti-gender movements in Europe, including Ireland's own anti-LGBT hate group, the Iona Institute). As you are both aware, the homophobic, misogynist and transphobic laws and culture present in Ireland in the Free State are often a direct result of British colonization and occupation, so it's a shame to see Sinn Féin so uncritically take on an anti-LGBT+ British import, which will harm LGBT+ children across the Island of Ireland. I'm asking Sinn Féin

transwrites.world/northern-ire... Shame on Sinn Féin (do they have a bksy @ yet)- you either stand with the LGBT+ community or you don't. Siding with the Transphobic DUP and British government is incredibly disappointing. #Spéirgorm #Speirgorm #TransRights

If you haven't written to your local Sinn Féin representative about their disgraceful Anti-LGBT vote to go along with the British governments blanket ban on puberty blockers in Stormont yet, today is a good day to do that. #Spéirgorm #Speirgorm #Ireland #IrishPolitics #LGBT #TransRights

Letter to my SF TD Thomas Gould about the betrayal of young trans people on the island of Ireland. PLEASE EMAIL YOUR SF TD!

Thanks to @irishtimes.com for publishing this article by @dkennytcd.bsky.social and me on the criteria for calling a border poll. www.irishtimes.com/politi…. #BorderPoll #Ireland #BorderPoll #SpéirGorm #NorthernIreland #UKPolitics #IrishPolitics
How would a Border poll on Irish unity get called in Northern Ireland?

How would a Border poll on Irish unity get called in Northern Ireland?

The Belfast Agreement sets out rules for calling a unity referendum, but is vague on some details

I'm not getting a bang of 'standing up for the working people' off this tbh. More a stench of invested interests getting special treatment after holding the entire county to ransom. #IrishPolitics #Spéirghorm

🚨 Government to propose a series of direct time-limited payments to haulage, transport and farm operators to help them address spikes in fuel costs - details of the ‘Fuel Support Scheme’ to be outlined to stakeholder groups when meetings resume in about an hour’s time. @virginmedianews.bsky.social

Ireland has internment camps. Once they were the magdalene laundries and the Mother & Baby homes. Now they are the direct provision centers. #speirgorm #Irishpolitics

FG suggest that older people should "downsize" and move out of their homes to free up larger houses for young families. But would never suggest landlords just not price gouge young families for every cent they can get. #SpeirGorm #Dáil #FGFF #IrishPolitics
