Racist-Transphobic Laois Councillor Aidan Mullins resigns from Sinn Féin
First the good news :
A Sinn Féin councillor has resigned from the party, saying he took the decision to do so after being “silenced” by his party on the migration crisis and the recent referendums on family and carers.
Long-serving Laois county councillor Aidan Mullins announced his resignation after he was told he would be suspended from the party for three months.

Second, the bad news.
Sinn Féin continues playing to the racist gallery; here is a leaflet issued by party leader Mary-Lou McDonald in the Dublin Central Constituency :
Have We Forgotten that Migrants Are People?, Nick Henderson, Irish Times, May 1 2024
Martyn Turner Cartoon, Irish Times, May 1 2024 – Ireland’s Open(ish) Border
The above story and cartoon illustrate double standards are alive and well in Ireland.

Update – Belfast Media States that Sinn Féin is bowing to populist pressure
‘The Trans question was a settled & utterly uncontroversial matter until it was identified in far-right focus-grouping as a potential goldmine for those who profit from fear & division.’
