RIP John Molyneux, a good friend, tireless activist, and incredibly encouraging comrade who I was privileged to work alongside these past 3 years in XR, PBP, and the Global Ecosocialist Network.

Our shared perspective that the ecological crises must be central to our analysis, socialist programme, and activism meant that we worked closely on a number of projects and had many discussions about the way forward.

I’m sad I never got to tell John how instrumental he was in helping me integrate into the Irish socialist movement. It was hard moving here from Seattle. John helped give me the confidence to contribute my ideas, even if he didn’t always agree with them. I’m incredibly grateful.

My deepest condolences to his partner Mary and his family, and to all the comrades here and internationally who were lucky enough to work with him, learn from him, and to know him as a friend.
