A thread in response to serious allegations made by @barrymward under privilege in the Seanad yesterday: #Stand4Truth #UnsealTheArchive 1/
@barrymward The allegations made by @barrymward are typical of the type of bullying women experience on a daily basis, so my colleagues & I decided that we can’t allow this to go unchecked. 2/
@barrymward By way of background, on 12th Oct @clann_project launched an email campaign as we were extremely concerned that the Commission of Investigation Records Bill was being rushed through & that records would be put beyond the reach of stakeholders: clannproject.org/commission-arc… 3/
@barrymward @clann_project The response to the campaign was such that it crashed the Oireachtas servers on budget day: irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4007… 4/
@barrymward @clann_project However, yesterday in the Seanad debate on the Bill @barrymward said ‘other parties’ were ‘wilfully misleading’ survivors/stakeholders by creating a website that allowed thousands of people to email politicians with ‘exactly the same’ email. 5/
@barrymward @clann_project Senator @barrymward went on to say that the campaign had ‘misrepresented’ what was in the Bill and ‘led those people up the garden path’. 6/
The rest of the thread seems to be separated. See:
