Victor Maldonado@Anitambyrne couldn't agree more, I would #VoteYesYes if I could, but there's so much work still pending, inside and outside Irish homes
Anita Ní Bhroin 🇮🇪The reality is that whether the care in the home referendum passes or not, most caring work and reproductive labour will still be done by women in the home and most of it unpaid.

"The care amendment and single issue feminism" by Prof Siobhán Mullally.
Mullally is brilliant. The provisions of Article 42 were wrong to begin with in 1937, and a betrayal; and a new wrong Article in 2024, another betrayal, won't make anything right.
