As New York hosts Climate Week NYC ? "the world?s largest climate event" ? the absence of any major global leaders speaks volumes, says Tilak Doshi. Mugged by reality, the Net Zero dream is dying.

The Court of Appeal overturned the closure of Epping's migrant hotel because Britain's judiciary is biased to its core, says Dr David McGrogan. The Right must get to grips with this problem ? and fast.

Church leaders are too quick to condemn Tommy Robinson and the Unite the Kingdom march, says Chris Larkin. We don't know what Jesus would have made of our politics, but we can?t just assume he?d have been a Lib Dem voter.

Tacaígí le Máire Nic an Bhaird

A Chairde Gael,

Mar is eol ag go leor agaibh, thóg an PSNI ár gcara, Máire Nic an Bhaird, ar na mallaibh agus choinnigh siad thar oíche í ar an ábhar gur labhair sí ina teanga dúchais leo. Is ábhar náire é, 8 mbliain i ndiaidh síniú Comhaontú Aoine an chéasta, go bhfuil an stát go fóill i mbun feachtais cos ar bolg in éadan na Gaeilge agus ar Ghaeilgeoirí araon.

Beidh cás Máire ag dul os comhair na cúirte ar an chéadaoin ar a 10. Tá Máire ag glacadh cás i gcoinne na bpéas chomh maith agus beidh sí ag troid a cás trí mhéan na Gaeilge. Tá sé rí-thábhachtach go dtagann Gaeilgeoirí agus cairde na Gaeilge i mBéal Feirste agus níos faide anonn amach i mbun agóide, ní amháin le tacú le Máire ach le taispeáin don stát nach nglacfaidh Gaeilgeoirí leis an leatrom seo a thuilleadh. Gurbh ionann Cearta teanga agus cearta daonna.

Bígí i láthair le bhur dtoil.

10r.n, An Chúirt cois an Lagáin, Béal Feirste.

As many of you are aware, Máire Nic an Bhaird, an Irish speaker from Belfast was recently arrested and detained overnight for speaking in Irish to the PSNI. It's a disgrace, 8 years after the signing of the Good Friday Agreement, that the State, in many respects, continues to operate an openly hostile position in relation to the language and Irish speakers.

Máire's case will be going before the Court at 10 o clock at laganside court house. Máire will also be taking a case out against the PSNI and she will be fighting her case through Irish. It's extremely important that Irish speakers and supporters of the language from throughout Belfast and further afield come out to protest. Not only to support Máire, but to demonstrate to the State that we will no longer accept this ongoing discrimination against our native tongue. That language rights are human rights.

Please attend the protest outside the court house.

10a.m, Wednesday the 19th of July, Laganside Courts, Belfast.
