An historic move by UN Sec Gen

.
EU leaders must now call for a permanent ceasefire and bring all our economic and diplomatic influence to bear, including suspending the EU-Israel Association Agreement.

🇪🇺The European Union - and all its institutions - must be a leader in negotiating peace and saving lives in Palestine and Israel NOW.
So far, it has not fulfilled its role.
An important discussion took place tonight in Wicklow Town on this issue with

R to @GraceOSllvn: Lots of perspectives offered but one thing was widely agreed - people power is and will be key to ensuring the EU acts appropriately.

Contacting your governments works.

Contacting your MEPs works.

A humanitarian pause was never enough - let them know we need a ceasefire now.

The EU, among other global powers, are not acting as the brokers for peace and defenders of human rights that they need to be right now.
I'll be exploring the role of the EU tonight at this event in Wicklow Town with

on this topic exactly.

Devastating to see images and videos of the renewed bombing of Gaza, where women and children make up a majority of the victims.
EU leaders called for a 'pause' and that's what they got. This is the consequence of failing to call a ceasefire.

Now is the moment for Ireland to live up to its commitment to officially recognise the State of Palestine 🇮🇪🇵🇸
We must start the process now, together with likeminded friends in Europe.

🇵🇸Today is International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People ✊️
In February 2023 I travelled to Palestine as part of the EP Delegation.
Out of this, I also made a short documentary, titled "Níl Aon Tinteán".
Check out the opening scenes here 👇

The Nature Restoration Law agreement has been approved by the Environment Committee of the Parliament by a comfortable majority of 53 to 28 🥳
Good news for Ireland and Europe's struggling ecosystems and one more step closer to making widespread Nature Restoration a reality! 🌿

The

Law edges one more step to becoming law. We will vote in Committee tomorrow on the outcome of negotiations over the law, to restore at least 20% of ecosystems by 2030
The EPP are leading a campaign against Nature Restoration. We won't let them win 💪

Ugly scenes in Dublin tonight. Thoughts are with

We have to take threat of rising narratives of hatred seriously. They don’t represent us 🇮🇪

A massive blow to the EU Green Deal this week.
As part of their campaign against environmental measures and climate action, yesterday the EPP killed off legislation to cut chemical pesticide use in Europe.
Ordinary people will pay the price of this 😫

R to @GraceOSllvn: Unfortunately the @EPPGroup backed the paper and plastics lobbies to significantly weaken the proposals - even deleting a ban on plastic wrapping for single fruits and veg!

R to @GraceOSllvn: The vote came right after the same @EPPGroup made a toxic alliance with @RenewEurope to vote down landmark measures to reduce pesticides in our food.

One MEP even celebrated spraying bird sanctuaries with pesticides ☠️

As a truce looks possible we must reflect on the fact that the EU has utterly failed to play a role in facilitating a lasting peace in Gaza, the West Bank and in Israel🕊️

Another win in the fight against throwaway economics, practices intended to make repairing appliances difficult, and planned obsolescence 🛠️
Now we move onto tackling throwaway plastic and packaging 🚮

"Few would think that one of the most lobbied pieces of legislation this year is about plastic packaging, cardboard boxes and coffee cups."
My piece in the Indo today on EU legislation I am negotiating to cut plastic and packaging at its source 🚫
