thread from Simon McGarr that all #Irish / #Ireland people should read, and act upon. The awful, illegal government-ID #PSC / #PublicServicesCard is facing a well-deserved death-by-being-illegal, and the Oireachtas will soon be deciding whether to grant it retroactive legality. We ought to make sure that doesn't happen.
