Teachta Dála ó Shinn Féin ag caint ar na ndaoine a d'fhulaing mar thoradh ar fhreastal ar an tSeirbhís Meabhairshláinte Leanaí agus Ógánach i gCiarraí Theas.

Sinn Féin are calling for more support to be given to women suffering with endometriosis. It comes as 1 in 10 women suffer with this deliberating illness and feel they do not get any support when it comes to both diagnosis and treatment.Uachtaráin Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald will host a public meeting today to discuss the motion.Would these government supports help those suffering with endometriosis?Joining Andrea to discuss is Deputy Medical Director and Fertility Consultant at Beacon CARE Fertility Dr Bart Kuczera, Serena Massey, former CEO of Endometriosis Ireland, Singer-songwriter RuthAnne and listeners.

PalestineThe Israeli forces as part of their on going genocide, in the last 24hrs have killed 142 Palestinian civilians, and injured 487. InternmentA British Supreme Court judgement in 2020 ruled that almost 400 internees were unlawfully detained under British law in the 1970s.  These internees are now elderly and some are quite poorly.  They were victim of appalling treatment at the hands of the British state forces and were held in shameful conditions.‘British Prime Minister Keir Starmer made his views clear earlier this year when he told the British Parliament that he would block compensation.Internment was an abuse of power and a denial of human rights by the British state.  This was compounded for these 400 because the British government breached even its own law.The original injustice endured by the internees will be deepened by the stupidity of a vindictive British government which doesn't accept its own law.  Another example of the British waiving the rules when it suits their political agenda Defend the GPOThe Dublin GPO and the streets and laneways around it are forever linked with the Easter Rising of 1916. This is a Battlefield site of major historic and international significance which successive Irish governments have failed to develop properly. Successive promises of investment and planning in Moore St have come to nothing. Succesive governments have reduced the National Monument to four houses leaving the rest of the historic area to be destroyed by a London based developer.In keeping with this shameful approach the Irish government last week published a 10-year plan which will see the General Post Office (GPO) become a mixed-use development. The spin from Government is that the GPO will become a flagship project, including retail and office components with a Designated Activity Company being established. Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald TD described it well when she said the government's proposal as “another shameful betrayal of Ireland's proud revolutionary history.” In any other city in the world we would see visionary, ambitious plans to develop the site, preserving our history with a national museum, arts and culture, education, tourism and homes to make it a living, breathing area.So, join the battle to Save the GPO and Moore St. Sign up to the petition and support the campaign of the Moore St. Preservation Trust for a modern historical quarter – shaped around the GPO, Moore Street Battlefield site and O'Connell Street.

Well done also to the tens of thousands who applauded and cheered as Mo chara, Móglaí Bap and DJ Próvaí, demanded ceasefires, an end to the mass murder of Palestinian people and stood up to the censorship of the British Broadcasting Corporation. Féile an Phobail – A festival extravaganzaThis week I was given a copy of the minutes of a meeting held on the 22nd June 1902 in the Catholic Boys Hall on the Falls Road to establish a league for junior hurlers. The venue was the Catholic Boys Hall. So far I have three locations for this hall. One is off Dunlewey Street not far from

Capaill ar strae fós ina fhadhb mhór i Luimneach. By Tomás Ó Mainnín Limerick County Council and City Council have spent over €500,000 over the past 6 years trying to combat stray horses. Le Tomás Ó Mainnín Tá os cionn €500,000 caite ag Comhairle Contae agus Comhairle Cathrach Luimnigh le 6 bliana anuas ag iarraidh dul i ngleic le capaill atá ar strae. Stray horses have been an ongoing problem in certain parts of the county for years, and the problem was recently raised in the Dáil. Is fadbh leanúnach í, capaill ar strae in áiteanna áirithe sa chontae le blianta, agus ardaíodh an fhadhb sa Dáil le deanaí. It was said that certain parts of Limerick felt like they were still in the Victorian era with horses and their manure visible all over the place. Dúradh go raibh áiteanna áirithe i Luimneach ar nós go raibh siad fós sa ré Victeoiriach le capaill agus a gcuid aoiligh le feiceáil ar fud na h-áite. It is a common sight in certain areas of Limerick city and county to see horses out on the roads and in public parks. Is radharc comónta i gceantair áirithe i gcathair agus i gcontae Luimnigh, capaill a fheiceáil amuigh ar na bóithre agus i bpáirceanna poiblí. Efforts have been made over the years to bring some control to the practice so that the horses do not cause a nuisance to the public. Tá iarrachtaí déanta le blianta smacht éigin a chur ar an gcleachtas chun nach mbeadh na capaill ag cur as don bpobal. The local authority has the power to seize horses if they are found stray or unattended on public land. Tá an chumacht ag an h-udaráis áitiúla na capaill thógaint má bhíonn siad ar strae nó gan éinne i bhfeighil orthu ar thalamh poiblí. This is saving Limerick county and city council thousands of euros every year. Tá sé seo ag cosaint na mílte euro ar an gcomhairle contae agu cathrach i Luimneach gach aon bhliain. According to figures obtained by RTÉ/TG4 News, local councils have taken possession of 605 horses at a cost of almost €643,000 in Limerick since 2019. De réir figuirí atá faighte ag Nuacht RTÉ/TG4 thóg na comhairlí áitiúla seilbh ar 605 capall ar chostas do nach mór €643,000 i Luimneach ó 2019. The horses are either taken to a horse shelter or euthanized. Tugtar na capaill do ionad dídine do chapaill nó cuirtear den saol iad. The problem and the cost were recently raised in the Dáil. Ardaíodh an fhadhb agus an costas sa Dáil le deanaí. Sinn Féin MP for Limerick city Maurice Quinlivan said that there were young people who had no control or respect for their horses. Dúirt an Teachta Dála do chuid Shinn Féin ó chathair Luimnigh Maurice Quinlivan go raibh daoine óga ann nach raibh aon smacht ná meas acu ar a gcuid capall. He said that there were certain areas of the city where there were still views, he said, that were as if the place was still hundreds of years behind today's life. Dúirt sé go raibh ceantair áirithe sa chathair ina raibh radharcanna fós ann, a dúirt sé, a bhí ar nós go raibh an áit fós na céadta blian laistiar do shaol an lae inniu. Minister of State for Agriculture Michael Healy Rae said that the disrespect shown to animals in some places was unacceptable. Dúirt an tAire stáit sa Roinn Talmhaíochta Michael Healy Rae nach raibh aon ghlacadh leis an ndroch mheas atá á léiriú d'ainmhithe in áiteanna. He said that the legislation was currently being reviewed and that it would be strengthened to give the authorities more powers to tackle the problem if necessary. Dúirt sé go raibh athbhreithniú á dhéanamh ar an reachtaíocht fé láthair agus go ndéanfar é a neartú chun breis cumhachtaí a thabhairt do na h-údaráis chun dul i ngleic leis an bhfadhb má bhíonn gá leis sin. So far, already this year, the local authority in Limerick has taken possession of another 15 horses.

Brendan McFarlaneOn Tuesday we buried our friend and comrade Brendan McFarlane. Bik texted me just over 2 weeks or so ago to say he was back in hospital. He had been battling cancer for some time. A few days later the medics stopped his treatment. There was nothing else they could do for him. Suddenly and unexpectedly he was gone. He died peacefully surrounded by his loving family.My solidarity and sympathy to Lene, a mighty woman, and to their children Emma, Tomás and Tina, his brother Gerard and the wider family circle. His loss for them is immeasurable. For his countless friends and comrades his death is a deep blow. Fáilte abhaile LeonardLeonard Peltier was finally released from prison in Florida last week. The 80-year-old political prisoner had spent almost the last 50 years in prison protesting his innocence. Leonard is a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians and he now on his reservation in North Dakota. His family and friends gathered to welcome him home. After his release he said: “They may have imprisoned me but they never took my spirit!” and he thanked “all my supporters throughout the world who fought for my freedom.” Fáilte abhaile Leonard.Taking A Stand.The decision by Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald and Leas Uachtarán Michelle O'Neill not to attend the St. Patrick's Day events in the White House and the Speakers lunch on Capitol Hill, will undoubtedly upset some of our friends across Irish America. This is very understandable.  Sinn Féin's access to successive US administrations was won after decades of very hard work by many people across North America. Understandably they do not want to jeopardise or lose that influence. It is worth noting that in the past Sinn Féin has always attended White House events when invited, including during President Trump's first term in office.So the Sinn Féin decision was taken after much deliberation.  The catalyst for this was the recent statements from President Trump in which he calls for the expulsion of over two million Palestinian people from the Gaza Strip, his refusal to countenance their return and his proposal that the United States of America will take over the region. The decision would have been the same had a democratic President called for the expulsion of two million Palestinians.  

Tá sé ceapaithe ina urlabhraí sóisearach do Shinn Féin ar Chúrsaí Tuaithe, Forbairt Pobail agus Gaeltachta ó inné.

Tuairiscítear gur labhair ceannaire Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald agus an Ceann Comhairle Verona Murphy go neamhbhalbh tráthnóna aréir faoina pleananna gan cead cainte a thabhairt do cheannaire Shinn Féin sa Dáil agus í á ainmniú ag an bpáirtí mar Thaoiseach ar maidin.

Release Leonard PeltierLast week I posted a Christmas card to Leonard Peltier. I dont know if he will receive it.  Or the numerous other notes and cards I have sent over the years. At 80 years of age Leonard, a native American rights activist and victim of a miscarriage of justice; has been imprisoned for 48 years. This makes him one of the longest serving political prisoners in the world.  Hunger for JusticeWell done to all of those – 1600 at the last count – who last week participated in the Hunger for Justice fast - Troscadh ar son na Córa – in support of the people of Palestine. Over €100,000 has been raised. As well as individual contributions scores of vigils and protests were held across the island of Ireland. People want to talk about UnityOn Monday Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald TD joined National Party Chairperson Declan Kearney, in publishing the report of the work of the party's Commission on the Future of Ireland. The Commission was established to undertake a grassroots engagement by providing citizens with a space in which they can have their say on the future of Ireland.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an 7ú lá de mhí na Nollag. Is mise Niall Ó Cuileagáin. Tá torthaí olltoghchán na hÉireann go léir istigh anois agus is cosúil go mbeidh Fianna Fáil agus Fine Gael thar n-ais sa rialtas san athbhliain. Bhí toghchán rathúil ag Fianna Fáil go háirithe; tá 48 suíochán acu anois, méadú suntasach ón olltoghchán in 2020. Bhuaigh Fine Gael 38 suíochán agus mar sin tá 86 suíochán idir an dá pháirtí. Toisc go bhfuil 88 suíochán de dhíth chun móramh a bhaint amach, beidh siad ag caint le páirtithe eile agus le Teachtaí Dála neamhspleácha chun rialtas a chur le chéile. Bhí lá maith ag na Daonlathaigh Shóisialta agus le Páirtí an Lucht Oibre agus tá seans ann go mbeidh ról acusan sa chéad rialtas eile. Dúradar go mbeidís ag caint le páirtithe eile ar an eite chlé ar dtús, Sinn Féin san áireamh. Bhí idir mhaith agus olc sna torthaí ó thaobh Shinn Féin de. Cé go bhfuil méadú ar an líon Teachtaí Dála atá acu, laghdaigh a sciar den vóta 24.5% i 2020 go dtí 19% i mbliana. Bhí torthaí tubaisteacha ag an gComhaontas Glas, a bhí sa rialtas deireanach. Chailleadargach Teachta Dála a bhí acu seachas ceannaire an pháirtí, Roderic O'Gorman. Tá rialtas na Fraince tar éis titim nuair a chaill an Príomh-Aire, Michel Barnier, vóta mímhuiníne tráthnóna Dé Céadaoin. Bhí Barnier ag iarraidh buiséad a bhrú tríd an bparlaimint ach níor thaitin sé so leis an eite chlé ná leis an eite dheas. D'ardaigh Le Front Populaire, atá ar an eite chlé, rún mímhuiníne i rialtas Barnier agus thacaigh Le Rassemblement National, atá amach ar an eite dheas, leis. Bhí Barnier ag iarraidh €60 billiún a shabháil sa bhuiséad so, chun easnamh na tíre a réiteach ach dúirt na páirtithe eile go raibh na bearta ródhian ar ghnáthdhaoine. Is é an chéad uair ó 1962 gur chaill rialtas na Fraince vóta mímhuiníne agus d'éirigh Barnier as a phost mar Phríomh-Aire maidin Déardaoin. Tá Uachtarán na Fraince, Emmanuel Macron, faoi níos mó brú anois tar éis samhradh tubaisteach, nuair a chaill sé móramh a pháirtí sa rialtas, agus neamhchinnteacht sa mhargadh anois. Beidh sé deacair dóréiteach a fháil leis an bparlaimint gan tromlach atá sa tír faoi láthair agus ní féidir leis toghchán eile a ghairm go dtí mí Iúil 2025. Bhuaigh an banna rapcheoil, Kneecap, a chás cúirte i gcoinne iar-Aire Rialtais sa Bhreatain, Kemi Badenoch. Chuir Badenoch in éadan an deontais ealaíne a bhuadar anuraidh nuair a dúirt sí nach raibh sí sásta airgead cáiníocóra a thabhairt “do dhaoine atá i gcoinne na Ríochta Aontaithe”. Mhaígh baill Kneecap go ndearnadh leithcheal orthu mar gheall ar a bhféiniúlacht agus d'aontaigh an Ard-Chúirt leo. Gheobhaidh siad an deontas atá dlíte dóibh ach dúradar go mbeidís ag tabhairt an airgid, €17,000 san iomlán, do dhá ghrúpa i mBéal Feirste, ceann amháin a oibríonn le daoine óga ó chúlra náisiúnach agus an ceann eile le daoine óga ó chúlra aontachtach. Tar éis an fhógra, dúirt Kemi Badenoch go raibh cinneadh na cúirte “dochreidte”. * Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Tá imní léirithe ag urlabhraí Shinn Féin do Choimirce Sóisialaí Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire faoin méadú i líon na ndaoine a bhí ag fanacht sna campaí i lár na cathrach an tseachtain seo. Caithfidh an rialtas an córas d'iarrthóirí tearmainn idirnáisiúnta a athrú ó bhonn a deir sé.

Is le Sherlock an 4ú suíochán i mBÁC Láir;Hutch caillteach. Yesterday there was the opinion that the independent candidate, Gerry Hutch could win the 4th seat in Dublin Central. Bhí an tuairim ann inné go bhféadfadh an t-iarrthóir neamspleách, Gerry Hutch an 4ú suíochán a bhuachan i mBaile Átha Cliath Láir. But Labor's Marie Sherlock found enough translations to take that last seat. Ach fuair Marie Sherlock,Lucht Oibre dóthain aistriúchán leis an suíochán deiridh sin a thabhairt léi. Around midday today Gary Gannon was elected from his Social Democrats. Thart ar mheánlae inniu toghadh Gary Gannon óna Daonlathaithe Sóisialta ansin. The leader of Sinn Féin, Mary Lou McDonald has also been elected there. Tá ceannaire Shinn Féin,Mary Lou McDonald tofa ansin freisin. Paschal Donohue, Fine Gael was elected earlier in the evening. Toghadh Paschal Donohue, Fine Gael níos túísce tráthnóna. Gerry Hutch was about 5,000 votes ahead of Labor's Marie Sherlock at one point. Bhí Gerry Hutch thart os cionn 5,000 vóta chun cinn ar Marie Sherlock, An Lucht Oibre ag tráth amháin. But Sherlock closed that gap thanks to transfers from Gary Gannon, Social Democrats, Mary Fitzpatrick (FF) and more decisively, Paschal Donohue when he was elected. Ach dhún Sherlock an bhearna sin áfach a bhuíochas d'aistriúcháin ó Gary Gannon, Daonlathaithe Sóisialta, Mary Fitzpatrick (FF) agus níos cinniúnaí, Paschal Donohue nuair a toghadh eisean.

jQuery(document).ready(function(){ cab.clickify(); }); Original Podcast with clickable words https://tinyurl.com/2376qekw Contact: irishlingos@gmail.com Harris Harris 'le leanacht' ag stocaireacht ar son John McGahon sa Lú. Fine Gael leader Simon Harris has said that he will continue to lobby for his party's candidate in the Louth Constituency, Senator John McGahon, despite the concerns expressed by both Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin. Tá sé ráite ag ceannaire Fhine Gael Simon Harris, go leanfaidh sé ar aghaidh ag stocaireacht ar son iarrthóir a pháirtí i nDáilcheantar Lú, an Seanadóir John McGahon, ainneoin na himní atá léirithe ag Fianna Fáil agus Sinn Féin araon. John McGahon was found not guilty in a 2022 trial of physically assaulting Breen White outside a pub in County Louth and the Sunday Times newspaper published photographs of Breen White's injuries today. Fuarthas John McGahon neamhchiontach i dtriail i 2022 as ionsaí fisiciúil ar Breen White taobh amuigh de thábhairne i gContae Lú agus d'fhoilsigh an nuachtán an Sunday Times grianghraif de ghortuithe Breen White inniu. Simon Harris said the images and videos from security systems were part of the evidence in the criminal trial but the jury found Senator McGahon not guilty. Dúirt Simon Harris gur chuid den fhianaise sa triail choiriúil iad na h-íomhánna agus na físeáin ó chórais slándála ach go bhfuair giúiré an Seanadóir McGahon neamhchiontach. Earlier today Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin said: "It seems that the victim in this case did not get the response that he should have received. Níos luaithe inniu dúirt ceannaire Fhianna Fáil Micheál Martin: "Is cosúil nach bhfuair an t-íospartach sa chás seo an freagra a cheapfaí a ba cheart dó a fháil. And I think that the matter is serious and that it is a matter for Fine Gael of course." Agus ceapaim go bhfuil an tábhar tromchúiseach agus gur ceist do Fhine Gael é ar ndóigh." Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald described what happened outside the pub as "violent" and "brutal" and questioned how Simon Harris could support John McGahon as a candidate. "Foréigneach" agus "brúidiúíl" an cur síos a rinne ceannaire Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald ar an méid a tharla taobh amuigh den teach tábhairne agus cheistigh sí conas a d'fhéadfadh Simon Harris tacú le John McGahon mar iarrthóir. However, the deputy leader of Fine Gael, Helen McEntee said that she also supports the Senator - that the courts have dealt with the matter and it is noteworthy that he claimed that he was defending himself. Dúirt leascheannaire Fhine Gael, Helen McEntee áfach go dtacaíonn sise chomh maith leis an Seanadóir - gur phléigh na cúirteanna leis an ábhar agus gur díol suntais gur mhaígh sé gur á chosaint féin a bhí sé. Although John McGahon was found not guilty in a criminal trial, he was found 65% responsible for damages in a subsequent civil case. Cé go bhfuarthas John McGahon neamhchiontach i dtriail choiriúil, fuarthas 65 faoin gcéad freagrach as damáistí é i gcás sibhialta ina dhiaidh sin. The High Court ordered him to pay €39,000 to Breen White. D'ordaigh an Ardchúirt dó €39,000 a íoc le Breen White. Breen White told the Sunday Times today that he is disappointed that John McGahon was chosen as Fine Gael's candidate. Dúirt Breen White leis an Sunday Times inniu go bhfuil díomá air gur roghnaíodh John McGahon mar le bheith ina iarrthóir ag Fine Gael.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 25ú lá de mí na Samhna, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 2011 bhí Rihanna mar óstach do dhinnéar Lá an Altaithe do timpeall 100 duine ag teach tábhairne O'Donoghue's I mBaile Átha Cliath roimh a cheolchoirm. Bhí sé seo rud maith a rinne sí I gcomparáid leis an eachtra a tharla I gContae an Dúin nuair a chuir feirmeoir cheist uirthi éadaí a chuir uirthi nuair a bhí sí á dtaifead fís dá amhrán nua. I 2013 dúirt Mary Lou McDonald bhí sí ag iarradh a bheith mar cheannaire do Shinn Féin. Bhí sí ag iarradh é sin de bharr an chorraíl poiblí leis an nasc idir an IRA agus Gerry Adams. I 2011 rinne iarscoláire Coláiste Scairbh rud mór. Thaifead zó-eolaí Laila an chéad fhís de African Gold Cat mar chuid de a obair chun cosain an speiceas neamhchoitianta. Thaifead sí an fhís I gcoill sa Ghabúin. I 2013 thaisteal seisear den fhoireann iománaíocht an Chláir chuig Shanghai. Chuir an chlub peil Ghaelach I Shanghai fáilte rompu nuair a leaindeáil siad. D'imir siad cluiche iománaíochta don chéad uair sa tSín. Sin Lily Allen le Somewhere Only We Know – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 2013. Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1992 tháinig an scannán The Bodyguard amach le Whitney Houston agus Kevin Costner. Ag an am bhí sé an dara scannán is mó a thug airgead isteach an bhliain sin. Ag an am chomh maith bhí an fuaimrian an ceann is mó ar an domhain nuair a dhíol sé níos mó ná 42 milliúin cóip. I 2003 fuair amhránaí Meat Loaf obráid chroí I Londain. Thit sé ar an stáitse nuair a bhí sé ag canadh ar an 17ú de mhí na Samhna sa Wembley Arena I Londain. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Christina Applegate I gCalifornia I 1971 agus rugadh láithreoir teilifís Maura Higgins in Éirinn I 1990 agus seo chuid de a rudaí a rinne sí. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo.

Cuairt a thug ceannaire Sinn Fein ar Dhún na nGall ar an deire seachtaine.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an séú lá is fiche de mhí Dheireadh Fómhair. Is mise Siubhán Nic Amhlaoibh. Dúirt MLA de chuid Pháirtí na Comhghuaillíochta, Kellie Armstrong, gur léir gur éadóchas ar son Fheidhmeannacht Tithíochta Thuaisceart Éireann a bhí ann nuair a cuireadh daoine i gcochall taobh amuigh de Bhéal Feirste. Tá sé deimhnithe ag Feidhmeannacht Tithíochta Thuaisceart Éireann go n-úsáidfear ceithre chochall ag saoráid óstáin in aice le Béal Feirste “ó am go chéile agus mar rogha dheireanach”. Dúirt ionadaí na Feidhmeannachta Tithíochta go bhfuil na cochaill "te agus compordach." Dúirt MLA Alliance Kellie Armstrong le BBC News NI nach bhfuil siad oiriúnach nó inghlactha. "Tá an geimhreadh ag bualadh linn. An féidir leis an fheidhmeannas Tithíochta a bheith cinnte go mbeidh na cochaill seo in ann déileáil leis an aimsir athraitheach, go mbeidh siad in ann déileáil le stoirmeacha?" Dúirt urlabhraí ón Fheidhmeannacht Tithíochta nach n-úsáidtear na cochaill ach sa ghearrthéarma agus go bhfuil siad de dhíth mar gheall ar éileamh gan fasach ar thithíocht shóisialta. Mhéadaigh líon na ndaoine a cuireadh i lóistín sealadach ó 4,527 in 2020 go 16,943 in 2023, a dúirt an t-urlabhraí. Úsáidtear na cochaill seo chun lóistín a thabhairt do “dhaoine singile nó lánúineacha atá gan dídean”. Bhí freagraí á lorg i dTeach Laighean le linn na seachtaine faoin “leithcheal gníomhach” a deirtear atá á dhéanamh ar dhaltaí na sraithe sóisearaí i scoileanna Gaeltachta agus lán-Ghaeilge. Triúr Teachtaí Dála a cheistigh an tAire Oideachais, Norma Foley, an tseachtain seo faoin chóras marcála atá in úsáid do chúrsa Gaeilge T1 na Sraithe Sóisearaí. Dúirt duine de na Teachtaí Dála sin, Darren O'Rourke ó Shinn Féin, go bhfuil “imní mhór” i measc lucht scoileanna Gaeltachta agus lán-Ghaeilge faoin chur chuige marcála don chúrsa. Is é an cúrsa T1 don Teastas Sóisearach an cúrsa nua a tugadh isteach in 2017 do dhaltaí i scoileanna ina mbíonn an teagasc trí mheán na Gaeilge. Déanann daltaí scoileanna Béarla cúrsa T2, cúrsa nach bhfuil an dúshlán céanna ag baint leis. Ach tá cuid mhaith de mhúinteoirí agus de dhaltaí sna scoileanna míshásta leis an tslí a bhfuil an cúrsa T1 á marcáil. Ní fhaigheann ach líon beag daltaí na marcanna is airde sa scrúdú T1 i gcomparáid leis an líon mór daltaí i scoileanna Gaeltachta agus lán-Ghaeilge a bhíodh ag fáil na marcanna is airde nuair a bhí aon scrúdú comónta amháin ann. Dúirt príomhoide Gaelcholáiste amháin le Tuairisc gurb amhlaidh gur “díspreagadh” do dhaltaí a bhfuil Gaeilge líofa acu atá sa chúrsa T1, atá “níos deacra” ná cúrsa Gaeilge na hArdteiste. Bhí sé i gceist cúrsa T1 agus T2 a thabhairt isteach don Ardteist ach cuireadh stop leis an phróiseas sin dhá bhliain ó shin.Tá teipthe ar an iaraltra agus dúnmharfóir ciontaithe Lucy Letby chun achomharc a dhéanamh in aghaidh a ciontaithe as iarracht cailín óg a dhúnmharú. D'áitigh dlíodóirí Letby i gCúirt Achomhairc na Breataine gur cheart an cúiseamh iarrachta dúnmharaithe a chur ar sos toisc go ndeachaigh tuairisciú na meán cumarsáide ar a céad triail i bhfeidhm go héagórach ar a cás. Mhaígh siad gur bhain an aird seo ó na meáin chumarsáide le dochar tromchúiseach agus buan, rud a d'fhág go raibh an atriail éagórach. Ach dhíbh triúr breithiúna sinsearacha achomharc Letby i ndiaidh na héisteachta i Londain. Gearradh 14 ordú saoil iomlán ar Letby roimhe seo as dúnmharuithe seachtar leanaí agus as iarracht ar dhúnmharuithe seisear eile, le dhá iarracht ar leanbh amháin, agus gearradh téarma cúig bliana déag uirthi as an ionsaí ar Leanbh K.

Splanc Nuacht le Gráinne Ní Aodha, agus í ag caint ar chruachás Shinn Féin, toghcháin in Éirinn agus Meiriceá, agus go leor eile

Thug ceannaire Shinn Féin Mary Lou MacDonald eolas don Dáil faoi chúrsaí ina páirtí, le linn ráitis chosaint leanaí a rinneadh sa Dáil tráthnóna inné.

Plé faoin méid eolais a tháinig chun solais faoi chúrsaí i bpáirtí Shinn Féin inné.

D'fhógair an Teachta Dála Shinn Féin do Laois-Uíbh Fháilí, Brian Stanley oíche Dé Sathairn go raibh sé chun éirí as an bpáirtí agus go mbeadh sé ina iarrthóir neamhspleách don chéad olltoghchán eile.

Ag caint faoi scéalta faoi léith a tháinig chun solais le roinnt seachtainí agus atá ag cruthú míshuaimhneas i bpáirtí Shinn Féin, an scéal is deireanaí acu sin nó gur éirigh an Teachta Dála Brian Stanley as an pháirtí ag deireadh na seachtaine. 

Tá an cuma ar Shinn Féin go bhfuil an páirtí trína chéile. I measc roinnt scannal eile , d'éirigh an TD Brian Stanley as Sinn Féin ag an deireadh seachtain. Bhí fiosrúchán ar bun ag an Pháirtí maidir le líomhaintí a bhí curtha ina leith. Pléann Tessa Fleming an titim amach seo leis an iriseoir Gráinne Ní hAodha agus le Clár Reachtaire Raidió na Life, Conchúr Ó Faoláin. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Reáchtáladh Ardfheis Shinn Féin in Áth Luain ag an deireadh seachtaine. Labhair ár n-eagraí polaitíochta Cuan Ó Seireadáin leis na baill a bhí i láthair.

Otharcharr Inis Oírr, í le bheith ina hiarrthóir toghchánaíochta do Shinn Féin i nGaillimh Thiar agus scéalta eile.

Beidh Sinn Féin ag cruinniú i mBaile Átha Cliath inniu chomh maith. Céard a bheas le plé ag an bpáirtí?

Teachta Dála Shinn Féin i gCorcaigh Lár Theas faoin bplean nua tithíochta atá foilsithe ag Sinn Féin.

Féile 24 I thought I would reflect on some aspects of Féile 24 in this week's column. In particular the debates and discussions. First of all I'm sure all Féile enthusiasts agree that this was an outstanding Féile. The debates and discussions in particular were of a very high standard and variety and audiences and speakers had a very special treat this year at their Saint Mary's mecca on the Falls Road.Advancing the case for Irish UnityLá breithe shona do Choimisiún Shinn Féin ar Thodhchaí na hÉireann - Happy birthday to Sinn Féin's Commission on the Future of Ireland.  In the summer of 2022 Sinn Féin established the Commission to advance Irish Unity through a grassroots consultation process nationally and internationally. The strap line for all of the events – Have Your Say – highlights the core aim of the Commission. It is about people having their say on the shape and composition of a new Ireland. Declan Kearney MLA is Chair of the Commission and Lynn Boylan MEP is the Vice Chair.

Tá imní léirithe ag an Teachta Dála Aengus Ó Snodaigh, urlabhraí Gaeilge agus Meán Shinn Féin, faoin ‘bhearna' i soláthar clár Gaeilge a bheadh le líonadh ag RTÉ má éiríonn leis an phlean seirbhís nuachta neamhspleách a bhunú do TG4.

Ba cheart do phobail i gConamara I bhfad níos mó leasa a bhaint as scéimeanna feabhsúcháin áitiúil na mbóithre nó LIS a dúirt Kevin O Hara ó Shinn Féin.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an cúigiú lá déag de mhí an Mheithimh. Is mise Niall Ó Siadhail. In Éirinn, thángthas ar thorthaí na dtoghchán áitiúil agus Eorpach an deireadh seachtaine seo caite. Choinnigh na páirtithe móra Fianna Fáil agus Fine Gael a líon vótaí agus d'éirigh go maith le roinnt mhaith iarrthóirí neamhspleácha ach theip ar Shinn Féin a líon vótaí a mhéadú. Teip mhór a bhí ann do pháirtí a raibh tacaíocht mhór acu cúpla bliain ó shin. Bhí toghchán iontach ag páirtithe i bhfad amach ar an eite dheas sa Ghearmáin agus sa Fhrainc, agus d'fhógair Uachtarán an Fraince Emmanuel Macron toghchán tobann parlaiminte ina thír féin. Sna tíortha Nordacha, áfach, d'éirigh go maith leis na páirtithe ar an eite chlé ach, ar an mhórgóir, is iad an grúpa den eite dheas EPP a bhfuil an líon is mó suíochán acu i bParlaimint na hEorpa. Bhí Craobhchomórtais Lúthchleasaíochta na hEorpa ar siúl sa Róimh an tseachtain seo caite, agus ba é an comórtas ba rathúla riamh ag foireann Éireann agus ceithre bhonn á dtabhairt abhaile acu. D'éirigh le Ciara Mageean, ar as Port an Pheire i gContae an Dúin í, aisling a fhíorú nuair a ghlac sí an bonn óir sa rás 1500m, agus thug Rhasidat Adeleke ó Thamhlacht i mBaile Átha Cliath léiriú intinne do na Cluichí Oilimpeacha níos moille i mbliana nuair a bhain sise an bonn airgid sa rás 400m. Bhí Adeleke agus Sharlene Mawdsley páirteach sa dá bhonn eile a fuair Éire: bonn airgid i rás sealaíochta 400m na mban agus bonn óir i sa rás sealaíochta 400m measctha. Roimhe seo, ba í Sonia O'Sullivan an lúthchleasaí amháin a bhuaigh bonn óir ag an chomórtas seo. Cuireadh tús le craobhchomórtas na hEorpa eile inné agus foireann sacair na hAlban ag imirt in aghaidh na n-óstach, foireann na Gearmáine in München. Ar an drochuair, chaill na hAlbanaigh 5-1. Tá cruinniú mullaigh síochána ar siúl san Eilvéis faoi láthair, agus ceannairí na dtíortha G7 ag freastal ar chainteanna in ionad saoire ar bharr sléibhe gar do Lucerne. D'aontaigh siad pacáiste cabhrach $50m a thabhairt don Úcráin agus fógraíodh comhaontú slándála déthaobhach idir an Úcráin agus na Stáit Aontaithe go ceann deich mbliana. Tá níos mó ná 100 ceannairí i láthair an deireadh seachtaine seo, an Taoiseach Simon Harris ina measc, ach níl aon ionadaí ann ón Rúis ná ón tSín. D'eisigh Uachtarán na Rúise, Vladimir Putin, liosta éileamh maidir le coinníollacha chun deireadh a chur leis an chogadh, ach dhiúltaigh Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelenskyy na héilimh go neamhbhalbh, agus dúirt Seansailéir na Gearmáine, Olof Scholz, nach raibh siad dáiríre.  * Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

Dúirt ceannaire Shinn Féin gur theastaigh comhoibriú i gcónaí idir na Gardaí agus an PSNI faoin limistéar taistil idir an Bhreatain agus Éire.

Tá tacaíocht Shinn Féin tite go 23% i bpobalbhreith RED C/Business Post agus tuilleadh.

Ba chóir go n-úsáidfeadh an rialtas na rialacha céanna nuair atá siad ag plé le hiarratais ar chártaí leighis sa tír seo. Sin de réir urlabhraí Shinn Féin do Choimirce Sóisialaí Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire.

Deir sé gur mór an scrupall é go bhfuil Cuma na scríbe ar sheana-ospidéal an Daingin, agus gur cosúil go bhfuil sé á ligint i ndearúd ag na húdaráis atá ina fheighil.

A successful conference in support of Moore St.Last week The Moore Street Preservation Trust and Uachtarán Shinn Féin Mary Lou McDonald organised a conference to support the development of a Historical 1916 Cultural Quarter in Dublin City centre with Moore Street at its heart.Mass graves an act of barbarismAt the weekend Leas Uachtarán Michelle O'Neill was in London to address a massive pro-Palestinian march. She described what is happening in Gaza as the “gravest human rights violation of our time.” Michelle called for "an immediate, unconditional and complete ceasefire. We need to see an end to genocide, ethnic cleansing, and collective punishment. All hostages should be released immediately and all aid for Gaza must be delivered immediately, and Israeli forces must withdraw from Gaza and the West Bank.”The FallsI love photographs. Especially old photos.  Particularly black and white ones. Bill Kirk  is a veteran photographer. The Falls is his  most recent collection, some twenty years after Images of Belfast. It captures a time and a neighbourhood which has gone.  As Robin Livingstone in the Foreword says, ‘It is a vital and compelling historical archive, describing in rich detail the people and places where the latest conflict in the shared and troubled history of Ireland and Britain took place.'

Deir an Teachta Dála do Shinn Féin Mairéad Farrell gur cóir don rialtas éisteacht le daoine le míchumas agus an Páipéar Uaine ar Leasú Míchumais a chaitheamh i dtraipisí.
