  1. Something our Kind & Benevolent Leaders ( #FineGael & #FiannaFáil) will no doubt completely ignore, as they steamroll over any objections to the aggressive construction of data centres & the development of all manner of needless, environment-destroying, AI-related fuckery. #Ireland #EU #Europe

    Well no more Irish Butter, Cheese or Whiskey Purchases in my area of influence. And no other purchases or visits.

    There are other choices
    FSCKING Shameful.

    Neither genocide in #Gaza nor kidnapping the President's sister is enough to persuade #MichealMart8n and #SimonHarris to act. 😡

  4. @kimlockhartga It definitely SHOULD be an international incident.

    But I don't trust the Irish Government to take a strong stand. Neither #FiannaFail nor #FineGael is seriously committed to supporting Gaza, and they both have a long history of small gestures. So I don't see Ireland demanding EU support, which is the nain path by which this could become a bigger row.

  5. @bthalpin The history of Irish creative use of #PRSTV is a bit of a chicken-and-egg issue. To what extent did decline of #FiannaFail and #FineGael drive more creative use of #STV, and how much did clever use of STV hurt #FFFG?

    I think it's actually the same phenomenon. For decades, Irish voters were mostly happy with the choice of FF or FG. Later, new political goals drove voters to new parties and new tactics.
