Three young boys being burnt to death should have shamed the orange order from wanting to march down there again. That’s what is ringing in my ears. It’s a struggle for the exertion of supremacy - no matter the cost.

Beoga and Aaron Rowe pulling out of Sheeran's tour is so admirable. Putting principles in front of career is incredibly brave and I hope they get huge support because of it.

Mainstream darlings Dan Mulhall and Larry Donnelly have spent almost 3yrs telling us that if we implement the occupied territories bill we’d be internationally isolated. They preached that money was more important than morality. I wonder if any of their journalist pals will ask them about this👇

The amount of working artists I've spoken to who are losing or have lost the ability to make a viable career out of it due largely to people's use of genAI instead of hiring artists is genuinely so upsetting. We won't know what we've lost until it's gone.

Dolly Parton was born into a poor family. On the night she was delivered into the world her dad paid the doctor with a bag of flour. She went on to create thousands of jobs for her community. Her altruism stretched to school kids in Tallaght.

It’s important that everyone speaks up for the dignity of trans & non-binary people. The erasure of this part of the Queer community from public life, in the UK, is an act of fascism that is unacceptable. It is also indicative of how tenuous equal human rights, for LGBTQ ppl, are.

He now claims that including services in the bill could damage Ireland "in terms of potential impacts on US multinationals based here back in America." They decide Ireland's laws as far as he is concerned. His Govt. told the ICJ in 2004 that *no* trade was legal. FFG was re-elected on that basis.

We met in Kitty O'Shea's night club in Roscommon town. I often thought of you after to see how you got on no mobile phones that time. I think it could have been late 80s or early 90s. I think we were too young ti settle down but I'd like to get in contact with you again. 087 XXX XXXX.

The strategy that keeps them in power is to do just enough to retain the votes they need from the selfish & the well-off, while plámasing big companies & international bodies. It works, and it will continue to work while good people sit at home & don't get involved. Remember - you can change this.
