It’s official. Cabinet has confirmed that they are knowingly delaying and denying the legal rights of persons with disabilities in Kenya. And if you listened LIVE, you heard the uproar that came from all senators. During the senate Assessment & Planning Retreat, I asked the CS for Health how...

The Constitution of Ireland begins not with government, but with the Nation—with the People themselves. That is not symbolism. That is authority. It is from the People that all power flows, and it is by our collective will that we established the Constitution as the supreme law of this State. Within it, we gave ourselves courts—not as instruments of control, but as guardians of liberty. Under Article 34, we vested those courts with a solemn duty: to protect and vindicate our personal rights. Those personal rights are not abstract ideas. They are expressly recognised and protected across the Constitution—beginning in Article 40, and extending through Articles 41, 42, 42A, 43, and 44. Together, they safeguard what it means to live freely and with dignity in Ireland: our personal liberty, our families, our children, our right to educate according to conscience, our private property, and our freedom of religion. These rights do not exist at the pleasure of the State. They do not depend on policy, preference, or administrative convenience. They are fundamental, and they are inalienable. What we are witnessing at this moment is something profoundly serious. A member of the Government—holding office as a Minister of State, an office that exists only by statute—has purported, through a statutory instrument, to prevent the People of Ireland from exercising their constitutional rights in their own courts. That cannot stand. No statutory instrument can override the Constitution. No minister, junior or otherwise, can suspend fundamental rights. No act of secondary legislation can lawfully obstruct access to the courts where those rights are vindicated. To suggest otherwise is not merely mistaken—it is constitutionally impossible. The courts do not belong to the executive. They do not belong to departments. They belong to the People, because the Constitution says so. And so, this is where the line is drawn. The Constitution is not optional. Fundamental rights are not negotiable. Access to justice is not a privilege to be rationed. Tomorrow, the law will be laid plainly before the Minister for Justice—not in defiance, but in fidelity to the Constitution; not in anger, but in duty to the People; not for personal grievance, but for the protection of all. Because if fundamental rights can be restrained today, they can be extinguished tomorrow. And if we do not stand now, we leave our children standing alone later. This is not about power. It is about principle. It is about ensuring that the Constitution lives—not on paper, but in practice. And it is about the furtherance of our fundamental rights, so that we may protect ourselves, our families, our children, the way we educate our children, our private property, and our religion—today, and for generations to come. #NoFeeOnGuarantee

Today in the Australian senate, Pauline Hanson 🇦🇺 asked the sitting minister for women Katy Gallagher, “What measures is the government taking to ensure women’s health, safety, privacy & basic rights are being protected from trans activism?” Senator Gallagher responded, in part, that no stakeholders have ever contacted her about any issues. Aside from the fact that we most certainly have, and I have the receipts to prove it, consider this the latest official contact: • What is the Australian government doing to ensure that women are a protected class of people that men cannot identify themselves into? • In your determination to “treat everyone equally”, how are you dealing with the inequality of allowing men who identify into women’s spaces at the expense of women who require women only spaces? • What part of “gender identity” as a protected characteristic in the Sex Discrimination Act states that men who claim to be women have more rights than actual women, which is what happens when their demands are met at the expense of women’s needs? • What part of the SDA says that “gender identity” means that men who claim to be women *are* women? (hint: it doesn’t) • Why does “gender identity” as a protected characteristic override sex based rights, despite the fact that there is absolutely no indication in domestic or international law that this was intended let alone acceptable? • When there is a “conflict of rights”, why is it that women are supposed to accept coming in second place to men who claim to be women? • Why do private citizens have to spend millions of dollars in legal fees to clear up what is obviously a muddling of legislation while legislators such as yourself pretend that there is no issue? • If there really is no issue, why don’t you let the Sex Discrimination Commissioner know that & allow female only spaces & sport? • Are you aware that the US fixed a big part of this issue politically and the UK unmuddled the law in the courts, while Australia - who had the opportunity to lead the way - continues to look like the upside down joke we’ve always been infamous for? • Finally, what is a woman? There. A stakeholder in this issue has addressed it with you. I await your response with breath that is baited.
