1. Justice and Accountability Jamie’s family has repeatedly experienced poor communication, delays, and last-minute cancellations from the Gardaí. Supporting this campaign demands that public institutions follow proper procedure and respect families’ rights. People join to ensure that no family has to endure what we have endured. 2. Transparency in Public Institutions An independent review ensures decisions and actions are clear, not hidden or inconsistent. People care about trust in policing and public bodies, which is weakened when families are ignored or misled. 3. Mental Health and Human Dignity Repeated procedural failures have caused real trauma and mental distress for Jamie’s family. Supporting the campaign shows solidarity for families who are grieving and vulnerable, and sends the message that bureaucracy should never worsen grief. 4. Systemic Change This isn’t just about Jamie; it’s about fixing the system for everyone. By joining, people help create clearer processes, better communication, and accountability for all future families in similar situations. 5. Empowering Citizens Public support amplifies your voice to TDs, ministers, and media. When people sign, share, or tag influential figures, it increases pressure on decision-makers to act.

I care about this because the South East keeps getting treated like an afterthought. The Dublin–Rosslare line is slow, unreliable, and now they’re talking about downgrading it instead of fixing it. That affects real people — students, workers, families — who just want a decent way to get to and from the capital without sitting in traffic for hours. A few smart upgrades could make a huge difference, but if we don’t push back now, this line will be left behind for another generation. That doesn’t feel fair, especially when we’re being told to cut emissions and use public transport more.

Non EU / normally visa required minors living in Ireland do not receive any physical evidence that they are legally resident in Ireland. This makes travelling with Irish parents or travelling unaccompanied an unnecessarily stressful and risky task.  The Immigration website specifically stipulates that minors under 16 do not need an IRP card and when travelling out of the State must do so with a parent / guardian who has a valid IRP card.  BMU has advised if a minor travels out and back into the State unaccompanied, they need a visa on return?! Why?  Visas firstly, take months to issue, and secondly, the minor is LEGALLY resident in the State but the Department of Justice will not address this terribly grey area?! BMU also stipulated if any issues arise, the airline can contact BMU at Dublin Airport - again, why? The said minor is legally resident in the State.  Even travelling with Irish citizen parents is problematic due to the Immigration website stating 'a parent / guardian with an IRP card', immigration in other countrie and airlines are then fixated on the 'IRP card' part of it. There was recently a family travelling back from Copenhagen, both parents naturalised as Irish and IRP cards expired, their child is under 16, so no IRP card issued. The mother had proof for her child from school, GP, welfare payments, dentist appointments and much more, staff in Copenhagen refused to let the child board due to no one having an IRP card! After many tears and begging, they were let on the flight last minute. BMU confirmed that minors of Irish parents did not need a visa to return, this email was shown to them and entirely dismissed!  Do you Minister, even comprehend the sheer (unnecessary) stress of this, or care for that matter, and how it potentially ruined what was a lovely holiday?  To touch on another situation, most families have their grandparents in their country of origin, some even have the other parent living in the country of origin and over the long summer breaks, it is the best time that parents would like to send their children back to visit - whether it be grandparents or the other parent, but they CANNOT because BMU have confirmed that is a minor travels without an IRO card parent / guardian, they need a visa to return. So a visa must be applied for from country of travel, and can take up to 6 months to process, so the minor goes on summer break holiday for 6 weeks, but cannot return until visa is issued 6 months later - please help me make that make sense?  There is always a blanket response of simply, under 16's do not need an IRP card, well I beg to differ, they absolutely do NEED something as physical proof from Immigration that they are legally resident in the State.  Perhaps you should take note from EU Treaty, as they allow and issue IRP cards for minors - lucky them.  I am appealing to you, not on behalf of myself, as this has no bearing on me, but on the thousands of immigrants who contribute to Ireland financially, who are all here legally and who on every IRP card renewal, have to pay the exorbitant fee of €300 - some doing that every year! Surely you can afford those people's minor children a stamp or a sticker in their passports confirming their legitimate, legal residence in the State? 

Banning or strictly regulating **TikTok Live in Ireland is important because it poses serious social, financial, and safety risks, particularly to children and young people. First, TikTok Live promotes the idea of easy money, encouraging people to beg online rather than develop skills, education, or a work ethic. This creates long-term harm by normalising dependency instead of productivity. Second, there is no transparency or accountability around gifting: • Who is sending money? • Why are they sending it? • Where is the money coming from? • What is expected in return after gifts are sent? This lack of clarity opens the door to financial exploitation, manipulation, and inappropriate influence, especially involving minors and vulnerable individuals. Third, TikTok Live exposes children to unsafe interactions, including pressure, grooming risks, and emotional manipulation. Young users may feel encouraged to perform, beg, or behave inappropriately to receive money, which is harmful to their development and dignity. Finally, the long-term impact on society is serious. When a generation grows up believing that going live and receiving gifts is a replacement for honest work, it weakens social values, damages mental health, and increases future economic dependency. For these reasons, action is necessary to protect children, uphold social responsibility, and safeguard Ireland’s future generation

It can happen to anyone, kids believe in santa, parents should not be forced to tell kids santa lost their presents. People can't afford to make alternative efforts at late notice. Some people deserve a break from stress  Logistics  carriers have yo be held accountable, they can not be allowed pick & choose what parcels they deliver, And not deliver older packages sitting in their waing hold all & not being moved, because they see at back, too heavy or just lazy & unreliable Logistics  carriers are under contract of shopping spps to provide a service, & if they are not, they must be removed from the job, & an alternative  must honor  the customers rights of receiving what they paid for

Backing this campaign is essential because the loss of youth workers and adventure centre staff positions affects every part of the community—not just the young people who rely directly on these services. 1. Protecting Young People’s Wellbeing Youth workers and Outdoor adventure staff provide early support that prevents small issues from becoming crises. Without them, more young people will struggle with challenges such as isolation, risk of substance missue, early school leaving, family and peer issues to name a few. 2. Keeping the Community Safe Strong youth services reduce crime, substance misuse, anti-social behaviour, and violence. When young people lose supportive adults and safe spaces, they are more likely to be drawn into harmful environments. Investing in youth support is investing in a safer community for everyone. 3. Reducing Pressure on Schools, Police, and Health Services Cuts to preventative services don't make problems disappear—they simply shift them onto already overstretched systems. Schools, GPs, emergency services, and social workers will face higher demand. Backing the campaign helps prevent these services from becoming overwhelmed. 4. Strengthening Families Many families depend on youth workers and outdoor adventure staff for guidance, behaviour support, and crisis intervention. Removing these roles leaves parents without vital resources and increases family stress. Supporting this campaign helps keep families stable and supported.

Right now, across Ireland, women are having instruments pushed through their cervix, tissue ripped from their uterus, and samples cut from internal organs - while fully conscious and in agony. They bleed for days afterward. They vomit from pain. They pass out. They leave traumatised. And they were offered paracetamol. Or nothing at all!! This is barbaric! We don’t do dental fillings without numbing. We don’t remove moles without local anaesthetic. We definitely don’t ask men to endure vasectomies while gritting their teeth. But somehow, when the procedure involves a uterus, pain relief becomes optional. Medical science was wrong when it operated on babies without anaesthesia - we tortured infants for decades because doctors “didn’t think they felt pain.” We were wrong when we dismissed women’s heart attacks as anxiety. We were wrong about endometriosis, about fibromyalgia, about countless conditions where we told patients their pain wasn’t real. We are wrong about this too. And patients are suffering because of it. These tissues have nerves. If sex can hurt, biopsies hurt more. If periods cause cramping, imagine instruments dilating your cervix and scraping your uterine lining. If Childbirth causes pain, imagine forcing labour in cervical dilations then tearing a piece of that tissue out!  If it bleeds for days, it was violent enough to require anaesthesia. There is NO medical reason to withhold pain relief. Local anaesthetic doesn’t compromise samples. Sedation doesn’t affect outcomes. The only barrier is a medical system that doesn’t believe women’s pain matters. This ends now.  Sign this petition to demand the HSE mandate anaesthesia for gynaecological procedures. Demand honest informed consent. Demand that Irish patients receive the same dignity as patients in every other medical specialty. Please sign this, because Every signature says: we will not be tortured for healthcare anymore. 

Herzog Park is named in honour of Chaim Herzog (1918–1997), one of the most distinguished Irish-born figures of the 20th century. Renaming the park would not only erase a piece of Dublin’s multicultural heritage, but could also be perceived as dismissive of the historical contributions of Ireland’s Jewish community. Who Was Chaim Herzog — and Why He Matters to Dublin 1. Born and raised in Ireland Chaim Herzog was born on Orwell Road, Rathgar — the very community where the park now stands. His childhood and formative years were spent in Dublin and Belfast. He attended: Wesley College, Dublin Masonic Boys Secondary School Sandford Park School His early education, identity, and worldview were shaped on the streets surrounding what is now Herzog Park. 2. A global statesman with Irish roots Chaim Herzog became: A Major General in the Israeli Defence Forces Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations President of the State of Israel (1983–1993) One of the most influential diplomatic voices of his era Despite rising to international prominence, he regularly acknowledged his Irish upbringing as a meaningful part of his personal and intellectual development. 3. A rare example of Ireland’s global legacy Very few Irish-born individuals have gone on to hold the presidency of another nation. Herzog represents: Ireland’s diaspora The influence of Irish education Ireland’s early multicultural history The long-standing presence of the Jewish community in Dublin Herzog Park stands as a symbolic connection between Ireland and one of its most accomplished sons. Why the Name Matters to Irish Heritage Herzog Park is one of the very few public spaces in Ireland that recognises the contribution of Irish Jews to the cultural and civic life of the nation. The name honours: a minority community a significant Irish-born world leader local history rooted directly in Rathgar Removing the name risks erasing this recognition. Why Renaming Will Be Perceived as Antisemitic. To be clear: one cannot claim someone’s motives without evidence. However, i believe renaming the park will. 1. Erase one of the few public acknowledgements of Jewish heritage in Dublin Ireland has very few landmarks dedicated to Jewish figures. Removing one disproportionately affects the visibility of Jewish history. 2. Single out a Jewish-associated name rais ng legitimate concerns When a small minority with limited public representation is targeted for symbolic removal, it can echo past patterns of cultural marginalisation. 3. Send an unintended message that Jewish contributions are expendable Chaim Herzog is a celebrated head of state, soldier, lawyer, diplomat, and Irish son. Removing his name diminishes recognition of his connection to Dublin. 4. In the current climate, risk being interpreted through the lens of rising antisemitism internationally Even if no harmful intent exists, the timing and symbolism may understandably alarm Jewish communities and allies.
