Per most recent figures, net migration to NI *over the past 22 years* has been ~62,000 people. Only 3% of Northern Ireland’s population currently belong to an ethnic minority. Pogroms in Belfast (as with Ballymena last year) are just gutter-level "One Is One Too Many" racism, and nothing else.

Is this the worst episode ever? #totp

A reboost of my last blog post, even though I've already got a mental list of additions and another Irish recipe I want to add ...

Enjoying the Athlone Riviera #BskyBeer

I met a man in the Tullamore Market who remarked: 'you're always eating or drinking!' I responded: 'sure isn't that what life is for?'

Happy Friday fellow Elite Humans! 🤓🍻 #BskyBeer

Not beer related but seeing some debate on the timeline about date format and the hill we will die on is that months are a waste of time. Today should be 124/2026.

Lovely pint of Rustbucket in McHugh's, Drogheda #BskyBeer

What a tune! Johnny Marr gave me a beer once but I don't like to go on about it... #totp

Banging them out for the bank holiday weekend. One of our personal faves is back. 🍻😎🤙

Super day out in Mullingar yesterday for the Cask and Wild Beer festival. There were some absolutely delicious sessionable beers from a bunch of Irish breweries. All served in half pint pots. A fantastic format for a beer festival. #cask #sparkler #stout

Happy Sunday evening! 😎 #BskyBeer

Grand to sit out with a book, a beer and a few tunes! 🤓🍻 #grandstretch #BskyBeer

I think we have what should be the final line-up the Mullingar Wild Beer & Cask Fest this Saturday in Smiddys Bar, Mullingar. See you there!

Grand afternoon in Dublin, after a beauty trade show ... 🤓🍻

When Hawkshead Brewery shed most of its team and closed its tap room, I thought beer in Cumbria would suffer. I needn't have worried. My latest story for @pelliclemag.com is about the breweries and all the people and pubs that make up this county. www.pelliclemag.com/home/2026/4/...

Irish Instagram is quietly radicalising adults, and it's not teenagers you should be worried about. From nostalgia reels to rage-bait algorithms, here's how ordinary feeds are reshaping Irish political opinion.. Read now on Goosed.ie 👉 goosed.ie/news/how-iri...

There seems to be more and more discussion about - and longing for - the Guinness Waterford tankard of late. Here's my take on it and its history, and by the way, it's not Waterford Crystal ...

Why does Dublin have so many pub and restaurant fires? We don't have the answer to that, but we have recently visited Drop Dead Twice, now that it's re-opened after their fire a few years ago. #SpeirGorm www.weirdodublinpubs.com/weirdo-guide...

Well done lads, you’re making a shitty situation even worse the rest of the small businesses in the country. If you want to be mad at the government it should be for not using the big surpluses to accelerate the decarbonisation of the country.
