if our current crop of politicians had been in Mayo in the 1880s they'd have been telling locals that action against Captain Boycott was not actually in their best interests and would cause more harm than good

You are misinformed. History remains a compulsory subject for the Junior cert. It is worrying that a growing number of people don't believe the holocaust happened but I believe this is down to the activity of bad actors and the far right on social media.

Last year, we made the decision to step away from X. The Royal Irish Academy is committed to creating, convening, and sharing knowledge for the public good and as an organisation we value Independence; Integrity; Curiosity; Openness and Rigour. In our view, X no longer aligns with these values

If you want #ICEOUT, boycott them and their families. Picket their homes and where they stay while on duty. Do not do business with those who serve them. Render them, their spouses, children and relatives no help or assistance of any kind. Only united communities can defeat fascism. No pasarán.

I think there should be a separate programme for Saturday’s GAA matches, instead of trying to cram all the highlights into the Sunday Game programme on Sunday night. There’s just too many games to properly analyse and show all the highlights. #TheSundayGame #GAA #speirgorm

A few things the two racist rapists in the Oval today will never understand: St. Patrick was an immigrant. St. Patrick's Day has travelled the world thanks to Irish immigrants. #StPatricksDay is an immigrant's holiday about an immigrant. ☘️ It is a celebration of immigration ☘️ #Speirgorm

I agree the Senate should be reformed and every citizen should have a vote. The majority are currently elected by county councillors (60) only 6 by university graduates, and 11 are appointed by the Taoiseach. Most people don't realise their local clles have this power.

I regret to say there has been a lot of foolishness on some sections the left about #Ukraine, echoing Russian and far-right talking points. (Just as shamefully, the same people supported Assad in Syria). Now is the time to put that foolishness aside. We should all stand with Ukraine.

Even the most reprehensible of TDs has been elected democratically by citizens in their constituencies. I don't like many of the decisions my fellow citizens have made regarding their TDs over the years, but it's up to progressives to out-organise them on the ground. #Irishpolitics #speirgorm

In journalism it's important to reflect both sides,listen, understand nuance,be aware of your bias It’s also important to call out facts that aren’t true Trump suggested Ukraine started the war with Russia That is not true.Facts matter.If you want to end a war,you need to face up to how it started

Imagine President Roosevelt saying in 1940 that Britain was finished, quoting made up numbers for US aid and then suggesting Churchill was stealing vast sums from the Lend Lease programme. Imagine him using lines - literally - written by Joseph Goebbels. This is the equivalent.

When you hear Newstalk pundits saying “we need adults in the room” or “student union politics”, what they mean is “evil and corrupt people are in power and it’s best to join them rather than try to change or oppose anything. Please eat this cheese with me, for I am a small wittle rat”
