Behind Catherine Connolly's historic victory | Green Left Show #74

Wednesday Nov 12, 2025

Catherine Connolly has won a resounding victory in the Presidential election with the largest percentage and largest total votes of any presidential candidate in history. It is also the first time the left has won a majority of votes in a national election in Ireland.

Connolly did this while up against the political and media establishment, and with a strong left platform that included opposing Israel’s genocide and aspirations for a more just and equal society.

Isaac Nellist spoke to Irish ecosocialist activist Paul Murphy about why Connolly’s campaign was so successful.

Paul is now a member of People Before Profit and is a Teachta Dála (TD, member of the lower house of the Irish Parliament) for the party in Dublin South-West. People Before Profit played a big part in the Connolly campaign.

Paul is a former Member of the European Parliament for the Socialist Party for Dublin.. He has been active in a number of campaigns including against water charges, against racism, for refugee rights, solidarity with Palestine and against re-armament of Europe and NATO expansion.

Kurdish activist: The Battle for Kobane remains an inspiration for all people fighting for freedom

Saturday Nov 01, 2025

Baran Sogut, a Sydney-based Kurdish community activist, was part of a delegation from Australia which, in September, visited the Democratic Autonoumous Administration of North and East Syria (DAANES), the third of Syria liberated by Kurdish freedom fighters from the Bashar al-Assad dictatorship in the Rojava revolution of 2012 and over the following years from the brutal and reactionary Islamic State of Syria (ISIS).

The delegation included Greens Senator David Shoebridge, the first Australian parliamentarian to visit NE Syria, as well as Kurdish Greens Inner West councillor Ismet Tashtan.

Sogut spoke to Green Left's Peter Boyle about the gains and challenges of the Rojava revolution and in particular about his visit to Kobane, the city that was liberated from a siege by several Islamic fundamentalist militias in 2014–15.

The Battle of Kobane was the turning point in an heroic struggle to defeat ISIS.
