  1. Oh gawd 🤮🤮🤮

    #LisaNandy told #BBC R4 Today: "I think there will be two things that will be different under Andy #Burnham.

    "The first is that it will be faster and bolder, and he's willing to think very differently about how we deliver that change.
    ...
    "The second thing that will be different is we will wear our hearts on our sleeves more."

  8. #Rapist #JeffreyDonaldson is in prison. The former #DUP leader was convicted of all 18 sexual offences he was charged with, and will be sentenced in September. His wife Eleanor faced only a "trial of the facts", but all charges were upheld.

    Sexual abuse by powerful men is an all-Ireland problem. It's a scandal that yet again, justice has been delayed by decades. 😡

    This isn't just one wicked criminal, or one party. It's an all-Ireland cultural failure.

  10. Heartbroken by closure of satirical/investigative magazine The Phoenix. After 42 years, it is a huge loss to Irish journalism, politics and culture.

    #PhoenixMagazine was often compared to #PrivateEye. It had a similar mix of satire & investigation, but #ThePhoenix was more serious and was spared the Eye's English public school boy humour.

  12. A 5th man is now ready for the 2026 #LabourParty leader contest: #AlCarns, just resigned as junior minister. Al is a Tory voter who waas parachuted into a safe Labour seat in May 2024.

    Al is a veteran of the British imperialist school of slow learners. His career was mostly in the 4th failed British invasion of #Afghanistan. His focus now is making it hard to prosecute Brit soldiers who killed #Irish civilians.

    Carns is basically a 19th century Tory. The media ❤️❤️ him. 🤮

  15. I know how Patty feels, most of the "shared spaces" I've encountered here in Ireland are de facto anti-pedestrian, practically hostile architecture, with cyclists routinely being aggressive towards pedestrians.

  20. Fianna Fáil's decline continues. Its #DublinCentral vote share is down from 44.5% in 2007, down to 4.2% today. That' is FF's lowest vote share in a Dáil election in the party's 100 year history.

    In #GalwayWest, the tally gives #FiannaFail barely 9%.

    Taoiseach Micheál Martin narrowly survived the disaster of #JimGavin's candidacy in #Aras25. Can he stagger on after another disaster?

  24. Over 300,000 British soldiers were sent to #NorthernIreland during 25 years of #TheTroubles.

    Those troops killed 315 people. The overwhelming majority were Catholic civilians including women, 2 priests, and over 60 children. But only a handful of #BritishArmy prosecutions took place. Few were convicted, and many of those were released early.

    Time to stop pandering to victim-makers, says #MarkThompson.
