I spent half an hour with the Iranian community outside the gates of the Dáil today. It is three months since Mahsa Amini was killed in police custody. The regime made an announcement at the weekend that the morality police had been disbanded. According to those activists, this is utterly untrue. It is propaganda and another young activist was executed by the regime this morning. On behalf of that movement, I ask the Government to express its solidarity with the movement and, in concrete terms, to give a commitment that it will not reopen the embassy in Tehran while the regime continues its brutal onslaught against women, mainly, but also the entire community. That regime is not acceptable and has to go. The Government should express its solidarity in some way, today and in the long term.
