Plastic surgeons and orthopedic specialists from the UK are based at the Amal and Nasser hospitals in Khan Younis in the south of the territory.
Dr. Tom Potokar, a plastic surgeon specializing in burn injuries, has worked in Gaza 16 times but said this mission had revealed a level of destruction far greater than his last visit in 2023,
It is time to talk about the Out of Control Immigration. Mon Mar 31, 2025 22:12 | imc
For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it. If you do you are labelled an extremist. However this out of control immigration is fully facilitated by the Irish government and the EU and the shady figure behind the Neo Con movement pushing for endless war, wokeism and globalist agenda.

Socialist Party contingent
It was the largest march in Tallaght in several years..... local FF T.D. Charlie O'Connor turned up to suppor the demonstration as if the proposed closure had nothing to do with him - he was heckled by local residents who he then accussed of trying to intimidate him! Seems raising an issue of concern with your local Fianna Fail T.D. is now called "intimidation"......
Bertie keep your hands off our childrens hospital

The choice of the Mater grounds, as the proposed site for the new National
Children's Hospital and the process which led to its choice
is being investigated.
The issue of not having the required land mass, infrastructure and the process
of buying it, including the price are a source of investigation and of course
impending scandal.
Brings to mind all the other 'land accquisiton' projects of the current regime.
Interested parties in the Mater buying process, which will provide the site for the
new children's hospital may want to scrutinise other land deals in the vicinity.
The Department of justice stands to gain millions from the sale of the Joy
to prospective developers, though the Thornton debacle has held up
that issue. The Thornton accquistion has been audited by the C and AG's
office and is subject to Oireachtas investigation.
Whilst the fat cats are carving up land parcels for whatever future re-zoning
projects, two things emerge.
1.The Children's hospital issue is causing problems for the Tallaght Community.
2. The Prisoners at the Joy are suffering inhumane conditions which have
led to three attempted suicides, One murder, one serious assault and
numerous unreported assaults.
Info on the Mater buying process has been available for some weeks in the
public domain-specifically the 'Sunday Business Post'.
=you are being screwed by the vested interests of the State and the developers
who are unable to cap their greed.
Fair play to all at the demo. A worthy cause. I dont agree with the governments plans on this one. However, I was watching the demo pass after playing a hockey match in St Marks, and amongst the Socialist Party, Labour Party, SIPTU flags, I saw the pile of shit that is the banner of Fine Gael. In the same situation they would do the exact same thing. It becomes clear that Fine Gael would sell their own grandmother for a vote. Labour should refuse to coalese with these bastards
This mustn't be real. The Minister for Health has just handed over the leadership of the (old) Progressive Democrats.
A more detailed report on the march is available at this link:
The union Impact is balloting on strike action.
The ballot is set for May.
They no longer feel that adequate patient care can be given.
They have had enough let down by the state which privatises regardless
and ignores the responsibility of the State to the people.
solidarity.
FF/PD should return the Health Service to the people and allow them to care
for their communities- they are selling it bit by bit to investors.
Look at what they are doing to the Crunlin Children's Hospital and ask yourself is this
what they have been mandated to do- corruptly buy and sell a generation of Irish kids
to make a buck.
Support the Health Care Ballot/strikes and walkout!
