Bagairt báis in aghaidh Mary Lou McDonald.. She has strongly criticized the death threat made to the leader of Sinn Féin, Mary Lou McDonald. Tá an bhagairt báis a rinneadh ar cheannaire Shinn Féin, Mary Lou McDonald cáinte go láidir aici. She said it was a 'bare and obvious' threat. Bagairt a bhí 'lom agus follasach' a dúirt sí a bhí ann. The President of Sinn Féin informed X that she had referred the death threat to the Gardai. Chuir Uachtarán Shinn Féin in iúl ar X go raibh an bhagairt báis curtha faoi bhráid na nGardaí aici. https://twitter.com/MaryLouMcDonald/status/ 1813543326026465415 Mary Lou McDonald also says on X, that the person who made the threat said he would throw her in the head. https://twitter.com/MaryLouMcDonald/status/ 1813543326026465415 Deir Mary Lou McDonald ar X freisin, go ndúirt an té a rinne an bhagairt go gcaithfeadh sé sa chloigeann í. It was a threat to my life, she said, it was as blatant and obvious as that. Bagairt ar mo bheatha a bhí ann, a dúirt sí, bhí sé chomh lom agus follasach leis sin. This threat, she said on RTÉ, is an escalation of the campaign of abuse against her, which is continuous and non-stop and has been going on for about a year. Géarú é an bhagairt seo, a dúir sí ar RTÉ, ar an bhfeachtas mí-úsáide ina coinne, atá leanúnach agus gan stad agus atá ar bun le thart ar bhliain. The Dála Deputy said that this is abusive and sometimes racist abuse, which is being heaped on her in a forceful and co-ordinated manner. Dúirt an Teachta Dála gur mí-úsáid frithmhá agus ar uaireanta ciníoch é seo, atá á carnadh uirthi go tréan agus ar bhealach comhordaithe. This campaign is underway, she said, for herself and against her party, in an attempt to break the link between them and their followers. Tá an feachtas seo ar bun, a dúírt sí, ina haghaidh féín agus in aghaidh a páirtí, in iarracht an nasc idir iad agus a lucht leanúna a bhriseadh. The threat came at the head of a discussion on the need for complete outrage at violence against women. Tháinig an bhagairt agus í i gceann ar phlé ar an ngá atá le doicheall iomlán roimh an bhfoiréigean in aghaidh na mban. This was not censorship, she said, because she is fully in favor of people being allowed to speak, but she is not prepared to accept a death threat to herself or anyone else. Ní cinsireacht a bhí anseo a dúirt sí, mar go bhfuil sí lán ar son chead cainte bheith ag daoine, ach nach bhfuil sí sásta glacadh le bagairt bháis uirthi féin ná ar aon duine eile. Mary Lou McDonald says the same person also threatened a senior member of the Garda Sícháa, and she hoped that would also be dealt with. Deir Mary Lou McDonald go ndearna an duine céanna bagairt ar chomhalta sinsearach den Gharda Síocháa freisin, agus go raibh súil aici go ngabhfaí i ngleic leis sin freisin.
