- No more delays. No more excuses. A full ban on trade with the illegal settlements is the very least we should be doing. Ireland has a proud history of resisting empire and standing up to colonialism - we must not continue the complicity that this government is happy to ignore. #EnactAnois
- We are taking the government to the high court because we believe their deal with the Lowry Lackey's contradicts the contents of our Constitution.
- We will not be accepting this authoritarian move by government and are discussing with other opposition parties and groups currently. We need to do everything we can to prevent them forcing this through tomorrow. #LowrysLackeys
- They're deranged - with Netanyahu, Trump has broadcast to the world his deranged plans to commit ethnic cleansing in Gaza. They must not be allowed to continue this. No Irish politician should consider attending any St. Patrick’s Day White House events with this psychopath. Boycott this genocidal
- Day 9 / 12 Days of Christmas 2024 Recap / September 2024 In September we learned that this security hut at the Dail cost €1.5m - yet there aren't enough SNAs for our kids. #ireland #peoplebeforeprofit
- Day 8 / 12 Days of Christmas 2024 Recap / August 2024 In August we highlighted howTicketmaster was price gouging fans. They were charging €415 for Oasis standing tickets, here's what we wrote last year when Taylor Swift tickets went on sale: "For years, Ticketmaster has been shafting customers.
- Day 5 / 12 Days of Christmas 2024 Recap / May 2024 In May Students in Trinity set up an encampment to protest Trinity's investments in Israel. Conor Reddy of PWO Ireland and now PBP councillor for Ballymun-Finglas Rep spoked from inside Trinity College 🇵🇸 We say solidarity with students and staff
- "There's no room at the inn" - say the corporate landlords and their apologists. But the story of Christmas is about solidarity. The housing catastrophe is the fault of successive Governments and their determination to allow vulture funds and corporate landlords to profit off housing need.
- Day 4 / 12 Days of Christmas 2024 Recap / April 2024 In April, Simon Harris became Taoiseach and immediately started attacking on workers. He announced plans to "delay" an increase in the number of paid sick days Irish workers are entitled to. Sick day entitlements here are among some of the wors
- Day 3 / 12 days of Christmas 2024 Recap -March 2024 In March, Leo Varadkar stepped down as Taoiseach weeks before the High Court ordered he be investigated for Corruption on foot of a case brought by Paul Murphy TD. Leo Varadkar legacy is one of misery and despair. Record homelessness, record chi
- Spare a thought for the retail workers, between the Christmas shoping, and New Year's sales, they are working flat out throughout the holidays - usually on precarious contracts, and for low wages. Workers's deserve a break. It's time to raise the minimum wage to a living wage for all.
- Merry Christmas!
- Merry Christmas 🎄 Nollaig Shona Wishing you all a Merry, Red Christmas and a fighting New Year - Especially those working on the frontline.
- People power defeating a miscarriage of justice being driven by big business lobbying and court corruption? Miracle on 34th street - a Christmas classic. #SantaNotGuilty
- If you get to watch the Christmas classic 'It's a Wonderful Life' over the holidays, and find yourself enjoying it - you may just be a socialist! The FBI claimed this heartwarming film about a community pulling together at Christmas was 'communist' propaganda. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
- Our fight is more than an election—for real change we need grassroots collective action uniting communities Join and help build radical movements from housing, to healthcare because now more than ever we need fighters—together we can create an alternative to the status-quo pbp.ie/join #Spéirghorm
- Why are Irish troops playing the EU's 'war games'? When people rejected the Lisbon Treaty, we were given a supposed 'guarantee' that there would be no push for an EU army. Now they are doing it through the back door, through so-called 'EU Battlegroups'.
- Social media team is tired, did we do this right?

- "All of the other parties, even on the left, are leaving open the option of propping up Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael. We think that shows a terrible lack of ambition, frankly" — @richardboydbarrett.pbp.ie #GE24 🎧 Listen back www.irishexaminer.com/news/politic...
- Another instance of the far-right attacking the left during this election, this time physically assaulting one of our canvassers and pulling out a weapon. Not once have they gone after government parties—they are stooges for the status quo. #GE24 #SpéirGhorm www.greystonesguide.ie/mcconnell-ad...

- We want to see an end to 100 years of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael, and we want an historic Left government in their place. A #1 vote for People Before Profit on November 29th is the strongest message you can send that you want an end to Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael. #GE24 www.pbp.ie/no-votes-for...

- Simon Harris has managed to gaslight his way to the top of Irish politics, from false promises to a slew of failures and scandals enough to tank the last Fine Gael government. But he’s never really faced any serious challenges for his failures—he’s only risen faster through the ranks of FG #GE24 🧵
