RT @STWuk: “We’re in a situation where people that have championed every war are now presented as the protectors of liberty & those of us who have been antiwar activists all our lives are demonised. But we all know that truth is the first casualty in every war” @ClareDalyMEP #EuropeForPeace

In an ideal world all war crimes would be investigated as surely as Russia's have been. We don't live in that world. The inconsistent application of justice is not justice. It dangerously erodes rule of law until only might makes right, creating even more victims in the long run.

Today I am thinking of Khader Adnan, near death, on his 75th day of hunger strike to protest his unjust detention at the hands of Israel Prison Service, which refuses to allow visits or his transport to hospital. #FreeKhaderAdnan #FreeThemAll

We do demand Navalny and Kara-Murza's release. We abstained on the resolution after our motion to remove a call for counterproductive sanctions from the text was voted down. Here's our amendment, calling for release of #Assange. Voted down by MEPs. How did Irish MEPs vote?

We call for a foreign policy guided by neutrality and independence, and preventing the use of civilian crisis management to further any strategic, military, economic or other objective except maintaining international peace and addressing the needs of affected populations.

The center right's vision of EU politics, shared by parts of the media, is one where elected MEPs forget promises to voters, put aside politics & become bureaucrats for the Irish business class. But that's not a parliament and that's not what MEPs are for.

I was happy to chat to @Jingjing_Li this week. The EU is under increasing US pressure to worsen relations with China, against the interests of people in Europe. Big challenges ahead this century. Peace and international cooperation are essential. Cooler heads must prevail.
RT @Jingjing_Li: "Europe has shot itself in both of its feet in terms of the sanctions on Russia. If they were to have a similar approach to China, the European economy would completely collapse…

If Barry Andrews is beginning an election campaign, it remains to be seen how successful a strategy it is to scold the public, and advertise the view that you can vote for anyone you like, as long as it's him.

It doesn't matter what you think of #Catalan independence. If you care about rule of law you must denounce political repression. If an #EU state arrests a politician it doesn't like, to intimidate and harrass her, in breach of her parliamentary immunity and EU law, you stand up.

At a time of record shareholder profits & stratospheric executive pay, there isn't a lot of benefit to talking about a right to equal pay, if it's a right to be treated equally badly. The fight for women's pay must be a fight for everyone's pay to go up to a fair and equal level.

Six months later, plenty of speculation. But no answers, few questions, and little interest in the attacks on Nord Stream. The public deserves recognition from their democratic institutions of the seriousness of these events and a full, transparent, international inquiry.

The usual suspects pretending this is an attack on the gardai. It is clearly criticising the government. If you want 'respect' for An Garda Síochána, you should be against a government sending them in to make people homeless on behalf of landlords. #evictionban

We all now accept that 20 years ago Western leaders and media launched the murderous war of aggression against #Iraq with an avalanche of lies.
How is it that the same organisations & people can be trusted to tell the truth and nothing but the truth about what is happening now?

I was happy to sit down with @jonstewart for a chat earlier this month to represent the Irish voice for peace and neutrality in Europe.

Shocked to hear of the arrest of my colleague @ClaraPonsati in Barcelona. Is the #EU going to stay silent in face of Spanish authorities’ contempt for European law, European courts & fundamental rights? Is Spain exempt from Rule of Law? Release her now!

Why is it that the rights of adopted children are never a priority? We can rush through spending billions of public money on arms, but something as simple and essential as dealing with cross-border aspects of adoption sits on the backburner for years.

Against the grim backdrop of 74 deaths off Italy's coast, half of them children, we again debate the EU's savage & authoritarian treatment of refugees, civilian search & rescue and humanitarian workers. People coming to the EU from outside its borders are an asset not a threat.
