St Brigid, accompanied by a follower, emerges from the Department of Foreign Affairs in Dublin on the eve of St Brigid's feast day, 2025, having delivered a message of peace.
Along with members of StoP (Swords to Ploughshares), she delivered a letter, a copy of the Downpatrick Declaration and a St. Brigid Peace Cross to Tánaiste Simon Harris as the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
This was a a compelling call for the government, in line with Article 29 of our Constitution, to seriously promote disarmament, demilitarisation and de-escalation rather than mindlessly jumping on board the juggernaut of war. It was also a protest at the Government’s moving ever closer to NATO, shredding neutrality, abandoning UN-directed peacekeeping, unpicking the ‘Triple Lock’ and building a weapons industry in the Republic of Ireland. How is all this compatible with ‘Pausing for Peace’ in Kildare on the feast of Brigid the peacemaker?
Afri and StoP hope that the presentations to the Minister on the eve of St. Brigid’s Day, will contribute towards greater understanding, a lessening of tensions, and a re-commitment by Ireland to the affirmation of our neutrality, the pursuit of disarmament and the promotion of peace. In addition, while the Government have been better than others regarding their statements on Gaza, they were urged to break off all trade with Israel, involving military research, weapons production and the development of Ireland’s weapons industry.

This was the deluxe cell, used for foreign prisoners. A cell this size would normally have 3 prisoners in it, but foreign prisoners would have it to themselves. The bed is a little wider than the wooden benches slept on by GDR prisoners, with a metal spring and even a slightly more comfortable mattress.
