DescriptionRecently elected Social Democrats TD Eoin Hayes has been suspended from the party with “immediate effect”.

This comes following the revelation that he sold his shares in a US software company that supplies the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) a month after he was elected as a councillor last June.

His suspension was announced in a statement from party deputy leader Cian O’Callaghan on Tuesday evening.

“At a press conference today, Eoin Hayes stated he had sold shares in Palantir before he entered politics. This was not true. Eoin was first elected to Dublin City Council in June 2024 and the shares were sold in July 2024,” the statement said.
