  1. Why hasn’t this been done already?

    And have the countless other Mother and Baby homes around the country been sealed off or examined?

    It’s highly likely other Mother and Baby homes had the same practices. They’ve had a few years to clear evidence it seems.

  2. Somebody tell Terry Prone! 

    Shameful mark on the country, the criminals involved have had plenty of time to distance themselves and hide the paper trail by now. 

  3. Gonna be very funny when they turn up the same thing as when the Canadians did the same thing at sites identified with the same tech. Absolutely fucking nothing.

  4. What about the babies buried in Seanross in Tipperary? My mum was an orphan there and thankfully was adopted by two wonderful people but I imagine it wasn’t like that for all the other innocent babies. It’s completely f’kd up her life and has had a lasting sorrow that we can’t heal. There needs to be justice.

  5. Tangential thought: I dislike, in this context, the use of ‘mass grave’ and prefer the (incorrect) ‘masse grave’ casually borrowing a bit of French.

    The catholic church didn’t give a flying tu’penny ha’penny about these babies let alone consider a mass for these poor individuals or their kin.

    But I know it’s just me…

  6. Wonder what the deniers will have to say for themselves when tne remains are exhumed!

    Edit: I see we have one in the comments already!
