It isn’t virtue signalling. It’s providing health care.
Aontu are against a woman’s right to choose when it comes to abortion and also. Backwards.
Aontu and others are even hesitant for sexual education to be taught in schools.
Another reminder that he’s a gowl
What does virtue signalling even mean anymore? Like if it’s actually achieving something can you still call it that?
Peadar Tóibín is a bald cunt.
I still can’t actually believe men don’t understand anything about the pill or the reasons why it is prescribed and that most girls are on it to ease painful periods, severe acne etc
Seems he’s not as anti abortion as he thinks he is…
Is that picture Peadar Tóibín or Stephen Donnelly?!
So he wants to restrict contraception in a country with legal abortion, resulting in more abortions.
Shouldn’t he be trying himself for murder then so 😂
MAGA moron.
I might even go as far as say the majority of women, young and old, take the contraceptive pill not to avoid pregnancy, but for health reasons such as regulating periods and the pain that comes with it for some.
This is actually an action, which achieves a societal good. He knows it’s not actually “virtue signalling”, he’s just proving his credentials by objecting to it.
So what Tóibín is doing, making useless noises that serve no other purpose but to telegraph to his supporters that he’s maintaining their ideological line, actually *is* virtue signalling.
It’s funny, almost all accusations of the same now serve only that purpose, which is an irony I can’t even articulate.
He’s a creep.
What is he on about, I was put straight on contraceptive at 16 and no not because I was sexually active but because I had extremely heavy and painful periods that had made me extremely anaemic so it was to regulate and lesson the symptoms. I wouldn’t have made it through those cycles without it.

Him saying that is “virtue signaling” to his own crowd of religious conservatives more than someone making a push for something to actually happen.
“Everything I don’t agree with is WOKE!”
This is one of a few different areas where I think Donnelly should get credit as Health Minister.
“WAAAAAHHHHH I dont want women to have rights WAAAAAH”
This cunt went and set up a party because he refuses to accept the will of the people. He needs to spend less time worrying about what teenagers are up to
I’m not interested in the moral aspect, but there is growing evidence that birth control (tablet,hormonal) can cause depression and other issues in women. Is it something we’ve looked into for our teenagers?

Who is this even?
How the fuck is this virtually signalling? Is he saying it’s not a good measure essentially? Yes there are more grander things that should be done, but doesn’t mean we should stop progressing and implementing smaller policies.
This is a useful policy. The only one virtue signalling is Tóibín trying to coral votes from the ever diminishing group of moral conservatives who would care about this.
Aontu had a guy in newstalk (maybe Luke Silk) and he managed to try and link this measure to both human trafficking and the murder of Anna Krigel. I was stunned. I actually found it quite upsetting.
While I understand it’s an anomaly to provide birth control to people under the age of consent. I just could not fathom that this was the line Aontu chose to take. That implementing BC would increase murders of teenagers by other teenager and human trafficking.
Politicians are reflections of their electoral base, somewhere down the country there’s some old fuckers who don’t want their kids having this type of access.
I hear the aontú spokesperson for children on news talk today. He sounded like an idiot genuinely
This guy is a complete donkey, please please get this imbecile out of politics
I’ve never heard anyone use the term “virtue signalling” without sounding like an absolute weapon, it’s always used as a worthless cudgel to attack something that might improve some people’s lives in a way that has no meaningful effect on others. In short – loada shite.
Has “Virtue Signalling” lost all meaning now too? Because in what way is this virtue signalling? This is a healthcare issue that has nothing to do with some weird culture war that some people are determined to import from the US just to have something to do.
What virtue is he claiming is being signalled?
He’s a reactionary Catholic extremist.
This is just old Catholic prudes being upset by the reality that teens are having sex, and they’re jealous and mad.
Ah aontu, assumed that people voting against 2 shite referendums was a vote of confidence in them and managed to get 2.9 percent of the local election vote…
When my 80 something year old aunt was starting to make positive noises about them I reminded her when PT left SF and she was appaled and her view changed back quickly
“Complete Cunt says something Cunty” colour me shocked.
Who?
Ah christ, this fella is a so backwards. He’d be better off moving to the US and joining the Republican party.
Toibin is an out of touch wanker. Doesn’t give a single fuck about women’s rights.
Backwards religious conservatives criticising contraceptives. No surprise there.
Peadar Tobin is a reprehensible prick. His holier than thou, self righteous, sneery attitude sickens my shit.
Old male thinks he knows what’s best for female health. We’ve been here before, right?
