Clare County Council has agreed to ask the Government to "investigate and instigate" actions that can be taken to end Irish complicity in the Gaza genocide. Unanimous support was given to a motion tabled by seven Fianna Fáil councillors this week calling on the Government to "prevent the funding of Israeli war bonds" and "fast track the Occupied Territories Bill into law". It comes two weeks after Clare's three Government TDs, including Fianna Fáil's Timmy Dooley and Cathal Crowe, voted against a Sinn Féin bill which would have prohibited the Central Bank from approving the prospectus for Israeli bonds at EU level. Maghera Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat Hayes says it's "tough luck" for the Government if they don't agree with what the motion is proposing.
