@micheal-martin.bsky.social & @simonharrisireland.bsky.social used a genocide to gain popularity with voters ahead of #GE24 by superficially recognising the State of Palestine as a sovereign and independent nation. The Occupied Territories Bill has shown them up for the spineless cowards they are.

as desperate as this sounds, he could play to Trump's child like personality and get the King to discuss how this deeply affects his chances of getting a knighthood... or send him a Jim'll Fix It badge and tell him this is only for the special boys

“The mothership has returned. Gather your things and inform the others.”

Defend it ... against its friends and allies? Miller is the vilest embodiment of Goebbels I ever thought and feared to see. Psychology recognizes the syndrome of victims become everything that once victimized them. Their extra hate, beyond anything they suffered, often makes them worse.

More good news for 2026 #Spéirghorm

Ireland only: A judge here indulged in an anti-cyclist rant as he (quite rightly) penalised a ninja cyclist for contributing to his own downfall. Two questions arise: How many motorists have been killed by cyclists in the last year? And Why is Jeremy Clarkson impersonating an Irish judge?

It is very nice to hear from all the organizations and groups who are removing their x/twitter accounts. #spéirghorm

Why don't I see more people saying MAGA is the same thing as Brexit, and will be disastrous in the same way? It seems pretty obvious to me. The only difference is UK isn't talking about taking back Ireland.

Irish Government should immediately provide all methods of contraception free of charge to all in need, without an upper age limit. Women over 35 have unwanted pregnancies too and suffer with the cost of living crisis.

The relevant law allows for significant fines for companies, and for fines and up to 14 years in prison for directors or officers of companies that commit offences with their consent, connivance or neglect. There's no gap in the law here. X needs to be subject to criminal investigation.
