From Pride to Panic: The Political Transformation of Sharon Keogan

Sharon Keogan once publicly celebrated Pride Month and called for an Ireland free from discrimination against LGBT+ people. Today, she is on

Senator Sharon Keogan once publicly celebrated Pride Month and called for an Ireland free from discrimination against LGBT+ people. Today, she is one of the most prominent opponents of transgender rights, gender recognition and inclusive education in Irish politics. This opinion piece examines that political transformation and what it reveals about the wider culture war taking shape in Ireland.

🏳️‍🌈 PRE-PRIDE CYCLE 2026 🚴

Arcane Cycling Team is delighted to support and participate in this year's Pre-Pride Cycle alongside the Gay Cycling Club and Outhouse LGBTQ+ Centre.

Join us on Saturday 20 June for a relaxed cycle from Raheny to Phoenix Park, followed by lunch and community time at Outhouse.

Cycling can sometimes feel inaccessible or intimidating. Events like this remind us that bikes can also be about friendship, visibility, inclusion, and joy.

Whether you're a regular cyclist or just looking for a welcoming way to connect with LGBTQIA+ community before Pride season begins, we'd love to see you there.

🏳️‍⚧️ Inclusive 🚴 All abilities welcome ☕ Community focused 🌈 Pride ready

The Natural Women’s Council and the politics of organised intimidation

The Natural Women’s Council is a tiny, opaque Irish group driving anti-trans campaigns in schools and libraries while trading on confusion w

A handful of activists.

No visible democratic mandate.

No published governance.

No financial transparency.

Yet they are treated as a legitimate authority on trans lives, schools, libraries, and safeguarding.

My latest article examines the Natural Women’s Council, its networks, its campaigns, and why Irish media continues to platform unaccountable anti-trans organisations without asking basic questions.

Repeal to Repression: How Niamh Uí Bhriain Recycled Ireland’s Defeated Anti-Abortion Machine into an Anti-Trans Campaign

An investigation into Niamh Uí Bhriain, her ownership of Gript, links to Youth Defence and the Life Institute, foreign funding networks, and

Gript is imploding in public.

The question is not whether the organisation survives its latest crisis.

The question is why so much of Irish media and politics spent years normalising a platform that built audiences through anti-trans panic, anti-migrant rhetoric and culture war outrage.

My article examines the role of Niamh Uí Bhriain, one of the most prominent figures associated with that movement, and the political project Gript helped build.

The people targeted by these campaigns have been living with the consequences long before today's headlines.

Contraception and Athletes: What Every Sportsperson Should Know:

Contraception transformed modern life, yet access, education, affordability, and bodily autonomy remain political issues. Sorcha Rosa reflec

A 2019 survey found that 50% of elite athletes used hormonal contraception.

Yet contraception remains one of the least discussed topics in sport.

Hormonal contraception can affect training, recovery, menstrual health, bone density, and performance. Athletes deserve evidence-based information, not myths, stigma, or silence.

My updated article explores the options, benefits, risks, and considerations every athlete should understand.

Ireland’s First Intersex Cycling Champion

There was no language for people like me when I was growing up in sport. No visibility. No framework. Just survival, silence, and the pressu

There was no language for people like me when I was growing up in Irish sport. No visibility. No roadmap. No conversation about intersex bodies, autonomy, or survival.

Just silence, performance, pressure, and the feeling that something about you had to remain hidden in order to belong.

Years later, I still think about what sport gave me, what it took from me, and what it means to speak openly now in a world that is once again trying to police bodies it does not understand.

This piece is reflective, personal, political, and rooted in lived experience.

The Countess Exposed: Corporate Structure and Anti Trans Politics

A socialist feminist investigation into The Countess Ireland. Who runs it, how it is structured, how it is funded, and why trans liberation

Who funds Ireland’s anti-trans movement? How are these organisations structured? And why are corporate and lobbying questions so rarely discussed in mainstream coverage?

In this article, I look at The Countess, corporate structures, political influence, and the wider ecosystem of Ireland’s emerging anti-trans movement.

This is not just about one organisation. It is about the growth of a socially conservative network that presents itself as reasonable, grassroots, and protective while targeting trans people, bodily autonomy, and wider feminist and LGBTQIA+ progress.

roald dahl was antisemitic and misogynistic. george orwell was openly homophobic. edgar allan poe married his 13 year old cousin. dr seuss cheated on his wife (and was racist as well as antisemitic!). hp lovecraft was racist as fuck. anyways they’re fucking dead it’s not like you’re enabling their behaviors in the afterlife or something. then again I think they bleed into the books so uh keep an eye out for that

the difference between these old white guys and jk rowling is that the former group is all dead. jk rowling is alive and using your money to oppress trans people
