Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an cúigiú lá déag de mhí na Samhna. Is mise Niall Ó Siadhail.Insealbhaíodh Catherine Connolly mar Uachtarán na hÉireann Dé Máirt, ag searmanas i Halla Naomh Pádráig taobh istigh de Chaisleán Bhaile Átha Cliath. Bhí gaolta agus cairde an Uachtaráin nua i láthair, chomh maith le ceannairí polaitiúla na hÉireann agus an triúr iarUachtarán a mhaireann, Mary Robinson, Mary McAleese agus Micheál D. Ó hUiginn. Cuireadh tús leis an ócáid le beannachtaí ó cheannairí na gcreideamh éagsúil sa tír agus ansin thug Connolly an mionn oifige as Gaeilge agus as Béarla. Ina hóráid luaigh sí na téamaí is tábhachtaí di ina téarma mar Uachtarán: an tsíocháin, neodracht na hÉireann, an ghéarchéim aeráide agus ról na Gaeilge i saol na hÉireann. Is í Connolly an deichiú hUachtarán i stair an stáit agus an tríú bean sa ról. Tá grúpa agóideoirí bundúchasacha i ndiaidh imshuí a chur ar an bhealach isteach go Comhdháil na bPáirtithe nó COP30, imeacht atá ar siúl in Belém i dtuaisceart na Brasaíle faoi láthair. Tá an lucht agóide ag iarraidh ar rialtas na Brasaíle stop láithreach a chur leis na tionscadail forbartha ar fad atá ag tarlú san Amasóin, lena n-áirítear mianadóireacht, lománaíocht, druileáil ola agus tógáil iarnróid nua. Cé go bhfuil an dífhoraoisiú tite 50% le trí bliana anuas, tá an tUachtarán Lula ag brath ar thacaíocht earnáil na talmhaíochta agus cáineadh é as neamhaird a thabhairt ar fhadhbanna móra a bhaineann leis an athrú aeráide.Bhí bua stairiúil ag foireann sacair na hÉireann oíche Déardaoin nuair a bhuaigh siad ar an Phortaingéil a dó a náid i Staid Aviva, toradh a tháinig aniar aduaidh ar lucht leanúna agus lucht anailíse sacair araon. Fuair Troy Parrott as Baile Átha Cliath dhá chúl sa chéad leath agus ansin sa dara leath tugadh cárta dearg do Cristiano Ronaldo, an chéad chárta dearg dá ghairm idirnáisiúnta i ndiaidh 226 cluiche. Bua mór a bhí ann do bhainisteoir fhoireann na hÉireann Heimir Hallgrímsson fosta. Bhí an tÍoslannach faoi bhrú i ndiaidh drochthorthaí go luath san fheachtas seo, lena n-áirítear cluiche a cailleadh i gcoinne na hAirméine. Ní thig leis na himreoirí ceiliúradh a dhéanamh go fóill, áfach. Le deis a bheith acu áit a bhaint amach i gCorn an Domhain i Meiriceá Thuaidh an bhliain seo chugainn, caithfidh siad an bua a fháil in aghaidh na hUngáire Dé Domhnaigh, cluiche a bheidh an-doiligh ar fad.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Harry McGee and Pat Leahy join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:· The inauguration of Ireland's 10th president in in St Patrick's Hall, Dublin Castle, on Tuesday, saw Catherine Connolly deliver a stirring address, amid a real testament to the health of democracy in this country, with all sides coming together after an at times brutal election campaign. Perhaps this is something our immediate neighbours and those across the Atlantic could one day emulate. · The Government's long-awaited housing plan, Delivering Homes, Building Communities, was published this week with the focus firmly on lifting families out of homelessness. A target of 300,000 new homes by 2030, ramping up the role of the Land Development Agency, and greatly reducing red tape when delivering homes, are some aspects of a plan that needs to become a reality if this Government is to be judged a success. · And Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin faces continued pressure over the failed Jim Gavin presidency campaign, but Wednesday's parliamentary party meeting revealed that the review of the campaign will now not be completed until early December. Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· The BBC makes mistakes but shouldn't bend to Donald Trump's will, Mark Paul on accents and belonging, and how Ireland's forthcoming presidency of the European Council should focus the 'hot mess of uncoordinated gibberish' of some policy positions here.

C'est une page sombre de l'histoire irlandaise. Jusqu'à la fin des années 1970, des milliers d'enfants, pauvres ou orphelins, étaient placés par les tribunaux, sous la tutelle de religieuses, dans des institutions censées les éduquer. Or, ces « écoles » dites industrielles furent souvent le théâtre de violences – physiques, psychologiques et sexuelles –, infligées à des générations d'enfants. Quatre survivants, trois femmes et un homme, ont vécu pendant près de deux mois dans la rue, devant le Parlement de Dublin. Emmitouflée dans plusieurs pulls, Miriam se tient devant la tente qu'elle a partagée avec trois autres survivants durant 52 jours. Placée bébé à l'école industrielle de Tralee, dans l'ouest de l'Irlande, elle raconte, à 68 ans aujourd'hui, l'enfer que les religieuses faisaient subir aux enfants « La première chose que les Sœurs faisaient, c'est te voler ton nom pour t'attribuer un numéro : le mien, c'était 1-0-6-1. Elles t'arrachaient ta personnalité, ta dignité, ta voix… Nous n'allions jamais nulle part, nous n'avions ni dentifrice, ni savon, et jamais d'eau chaude. Nos journées se résumaient à coudre, à travailler, pour des gens de dehors. Et pour cela, nous n'avons jamais été payés », témoigne-t-elle. En plus du travail forcé, les religieuses – dont la « charité » n'avaient que le nom – infligeaient aux enfants violences et humiliations. « Elles t'attachaient nue à un lit, l'une d'elles comptait, et elles te frappaient cent fois. Et elles forçaient tes frères et sœurs, et tes amis, à regarder… », se souvient-elle avec effroi. Ces écoles industrielles font partie de ces institutions gérées conjointement par l'État irlandais et l'Église, tout au long du XXe siècle. L'un des plus grands scandales du pays, au même titre que les couvents de la Madeleine, où plus de 30 000 femmes – considérées impures – étaient condamnées à travailler sans relâche, exploitées par les nonnes. Selon James Gallen, professeur et spécialiste des institutions religieuses à la Dublin City University (DCU), après huit siècles de domination britannique, l'Église catholique a su profiter à cette époque de la fragilité d'un État tout juste sorti de la guerre civile pour étendre son emprise. « L'Irlande nouvellement indépendante était en proie à une profonde insécurité sur son identité. On craignait de découvrir que les Irlandais étaient incapables de se gouverner eux-mêmes, que notre idéal d'une Irlande sainte et catholique n'était qu'une illusion. C'est pourquoi les autorités étaient très déterminées à présenter l'Irlande comme un pays moralement pur », explique-t-il. Depuis presque deux mois, les quatre survivants affirmaient ne vivre que d'eau et de café. Et pourtant, rien n'a entamé la force du groupe, selon Miriam : « Je pense que c'est parce que nous avons souffert enfants : nous sommes des survivants, et c'est pour ça que nous sommes plus forts qu'ils ne le pensent. Ils commencent seulement à comprendre la résilience et la détermination que nous avons. Nous resterons ici jusqu'à ce que nous obtenions ce que le gouvernement nous a promis. » Et c'est enfin chose faite ! Mardi, le Premier ministre irlandais, Micheál Martin, les a appelés à mettre fin à leur mouvement. Les grévistes de la faim devraient désormais bénéficier de soins médicaux gratuits, ainsi que d'un soutien financier. Le soulagement pour Miriam, qui dit s'être battue non seulement pour elle, mais aussi pour les 4 000 autres survivants des écoles industrielles irlandaises.

Perhaps they are now following the example of other European countries? · And Naomi O'Leary discusses the Dutch political scene with reports suggesting the centrist D66 party caused a big upset in Dutch elections this week.Plus, the panel picks their favourite Irish Times pieces of the week:· Mary ‘Mae' McGee who successfully fought the ban on contraception in Ireland, and Newton Emerson on how Fine Gael's anti-British rhetoric came back to bite Heather Humphreys.
