Can you tag Irish journalists, please? The more spotlight we get, the better.

The founders behind this event are extreme far-right agitators. They promote rhetoric targeting LGBTQ+ people, migrants, refugees, and Muslims.

Thanks for sharing. Who are these founders? Has the venue hosted comparable events in the past? Just wondering who the players are and what the wider agenda is. Pretty disgusting anyway

Hi Andrew. Founder of the Natural Women’s Council is Jana Lunden, far right agitator. As far as we can tell no the venue has not hosted events like this before. Wider agenda seems typical of the far right, push Christian nationalist ideology

Thanks Miriam yeah I dug a little deeper. Familiar with her and her horrible agenda. Have signed and shared on socials and will write to them

Don’t give those people any platform. It starts with trans people today and then they’ll move on the next group to be hateful towards.

miriamboosh.bsky.social•14 days ago

They already have they’ve incited violence against many different minorities. They’re some of the leading voices promoting far right ideology in Ireland at the moment

djcasualties.bsky.social•14 days ago

Every group besides themselves is the problem.

Update: We’re officially closing the petition following the fantastic news that Johnstown has cancelled the event. This is a huge win, and it wouldn’t have happened without the collective effort of everyone who signed, shared, and spoke up.
