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."Quote from https://archive.is/Lrttv
It's as vapid as when #SimonHarris became #Taoiseach in 2024 promising "a new energy". 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

@JugglingWithEggs Yes, Irish Presidency is ceremonial. In the past we took the elder statesman thing too far: one of our 10 presidents died in office, and one (DeV) was already fossilised when elected.
I agree that executive office is more physically demanding. But in govt, the job is course-setting, not rowing.
I loathed #SimonHarris as Taoiseach, with his slogan "a new energy". 🤮 Ireland needed vision & direction, not a hyperactive toddler.
Most politicians now seem to have no compass.

Dáil Éireann has voted against legislation seeking to impose #sanctions against #Israel, by 77 votes to 62
https://www.rte.ie/news/2026/0520/1574420-dail-israel-sanctions/
The Sanctions Against The State of Israel bill was tabled by #PeopleBeforeProfit, but opposed by the #FiannaFail / #FineGael government.
Neither genocide in #Gaza nor kidnapping the President's sister is enough to persuade #MichealMart8n and #SimonHarris to act. 😡

"Bass (how low can you go)" - Simon Harris
#TOTP has not yet learned to make dance music look interesting.
Lots of shots of Simon behind his decks, lots of his keyboardist.
The dancer doesn't mug into the camera, and director Paul Ciani uses his preferred swooping crane shots, and there's no visual focus. It's a mess.
Handheld cameras were not yet in use, and Ciani needed them. Remember Xpansions from a few weeks ago? Same director, better tech.

The #HerzogPark row in #Rathgar, #Dublin is using a lot of #iepol bandwidth. Even #SimonHarris and #MicheálMartin have weighed in, both looking ill-briefed.
The best account iI have seen is this thread on #Twitter / #X by #GarySpedding: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1994994293606375643.html
Spedding rightly notes that this small suburban park is getting way too much attention and was an odd fight to pick. But he is on top of the long backstory. He notes how this a well-reasoned campaign, and definitely not #antisemitism.

Aw, bless 😀 The #TikTokTanaiste has taken up comedy. 😂🤣
Heather Humphreys’s campaign is growing “day by day”, Tánaiste #SimonHarris has said, as he rejected a suggestion she was doomed. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣#CatherineConnollyForPresident has almost double Heather Humphreys's share in the opinion polls. Even the #IrishTimes acknowledges that only an "earthquake" would defeat Connolly.

#SimonHarris's statement didn't go as far as I wanted. He didn't label Israel's actions as piracy, and he didn't even mention that the abducted include a member of the Oireachtas: Senator Chris Andrews.
But it's all a big contrast to the silence of #YvetteCopper, the UK's #ForeignSecretary. Cooper has not made any statement in her own name, even in writing.

@christineburns Excellent comparison!
But #Bray lacks Southport's exotic political fauna. LibDem MP Ronnie Fearn was also a legendary #pantomime dame.
Whereas Bray has to make do with frenetic boy wonder #SimonHarris, who looks like he's waiting for his voice to break. He's a social media native whose entire life has been politics, known as the #TikTokTaoiseach until he was demoted to #TikTokTanaiste.

Dáil Éireann 40 min ago with #SimonHarris looking even sneakier than usual on banner. Debate ongoing inside on bill to stop #CentralBank involvement in selling #Israeli war bonds. #FrancesBlack, #RuthCoppinger and #AliceMaryHiggins spoke to name but a few.

Tánaiste #SimonHarris emphasised that the legislation aligns with a 2024 International Court of Justice advisory opinion, which urged nations to avoid trade supporting illegal settlements. 3)
