Whilst I understand the need for countries to respect the position of the head of state, it’s not acceptable to accept an unacceptable individual #callEvilOut

Never mind Merrion Square Cafe! Could have built a lot of houses for that unspeakably poor priority. Our tax vulnerability seems very high risk indeed. David McW made some very good points today

I heard Ciara Kelly earlier, essentially saying “Ireland Inc” should prioritise the “relationship” with the USA because of our economic gains, even though it means with Mr Trump. IMHO, Time for what is wrong to be called out. #newstalk The direction of travel is irrational and wrong, not normal

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

I hope you are right Philip, but, and it’s a huge but, it seems that most of his “loyal” supporters etc., are bought in, and very likely to continue to play a populist part for at least a year, unless, of course,,there’s a more immediate personal incentive….

Agree with you on the wrong of a death penalty, never mind the botched execution. This particular case seems like a seriously unfair judgement, given the early life background. However I don’t know enough about that to think whether the decision to penalise was in any way right or wrong.

There is no point in slagging off this person, who is clearly not the full shilling/dollar. He can’t help it, so cannot be blamed . Serious and urgent need to have clear system to ensure that all representatives are capable. The issues facing us all need clear and simple explanation to all

I’m perplexed that funding a pay increase for public sector workers (and it’s consequent lead for pay generally) is seen as priority v investment in for e.g. wildlife protection, building insulation, food and other security, and especially the obvious need to rapidly reduce our fossil fuel exposure.

One of my most galaxy-brained takes is that politicians and political groups should talk more about workers’ share of national income. It's one of the clearest, simplest ways to describe how billionaires and corporate elites captured so much of the economy--and something policy can change.

Labor's bargaining position has worsened markedly in the last half-decade.

Rolling blackouts would happen more than 13 days a year in a “worst case future” scenario, where data center growth is unrestrained and electricity supplies remain tight, according to a report commissioned by Pennsylvania utility regulators. ohiocapitaljournal.com/2026/09/18/r...

Study warns of electricity shortages unless supply keeps pace with data center growth • Ohio Capital Journal

Even if new power plants are built over the next 15 years, as data center projects come online, the regional electricity grid would fall short of demands six times per decade, on average, according…

Ta for an incisive explanation. The social implications are potentially massive, our children, grandchildren most directly exposed, and, in consequence, everyone else. It seems that society needs to rapidly slow down the use of AI, probably best by absolutely limiting the existence of data centres

Your posts contain logic and reason. I’ve no idea as to why the normal ways of a reasonable society not only can enable what we are seeing, but, are showing no evidence that they can stop this sinful behaviour. I can only hope, but know that is not a good strategy
