You'd have to factor out the 'don't knows' for an accurate picture of what you're trying to measure Brian.

Wow, have to say I'm disappointed with Barry Andrews. I'd expect nothing more from the rest unfortunately.

The Irish MEPs who voted for this were Fine Gael: Regina Doherty, Nina Carberry, Seán Kelly Fianna Fáil: Barry Andrews, Barry Cowen, Billy Kelleher Independent Ireland: Ciaran Mullooly. Shocked at Barry Andrews voting for this. The rest, less so.

Hey, I’m just asking questions. Ignorant questions, bigoted questions, questions that have been repeatedly answered for many years. Sorry, but I’m not listening to answers right now; I’m far too busy asking questions. It’s called being intellectually curious.

A gut-punch of a statistic, reflective of what's happening throughout the entire natural world. But using the word "stocks" to describe a wild population of one of Earth's most breathtaking, magical species indicates precisely why we've reached such a predicament. www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2026...

And still they license more salmon farms. Sea trout stocks are also on the floor due to the explosion in sea lice from salmon farms.

'Not in a position to bring us home' he says. There's plenty of other roads that will bring them home, including the one they used to get to the church. Why insist on walking down the one road where they'll cause offense?* *rhetorical question #Garvaghy

If you look at what happened to Everton and Leicester for relatively minor infractions (compared to City) they should be facing relegation and titles being stripped but I'll believe it when I see it.

I coach kids football. My team hasn't won a game all season. That's because I have an inclusive team and take all kids who want to play. I'm oversubscribed. I look down on coaches whose teams win because they kicked out all the weaker children.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP — which was gutted last year. If Bezos can spend $500M on a yacht, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

Fish farms • Consume vast amounts of industrially-trawled wild fish, wasting 75% • Turn rich seabeds below into deadzones • Give parasites & diseases to wild fish • Are horrific for farmed fish • Produce toxic, chemical-laden food • Are eyesores in beauty spots • Harm tourism & fishing jobs ENOUGH

Both the government and the Court of Appeal now treat protesters as terrorists and terrorists as protesters. It's hard to accept that a "Labour" government is imposing rightwing authoritarianism on the UK, but please read this column to see what's happening.+🧵 www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Hi! I'm Bret Rhett Chet, here to tell you why you should buy and hodl SpaceX stonk. For a mere $135/share, you get pro forma tangible book value of $7.85/share, an immediate 94% dilution. New investors are putting up 48% of all capital ever invested in SpaceX in exchange for 4.2% of the shares. /1
