I take it the Greens have won then, because we are instantly on our bullshit

Now I don’t know who the Democracy Volunteers are, but if you’re going to make potentially inflammatory allegations of voting irregularities, in my view you do need to demonstrate you understand and have correctly stated the law, and this extract from their website doesn’t seem to do this

The group's statement says they saw 32 cases which they perceive as 'family voting' across 15/22 polling stations, when seeing 600 people vote across the constituency. They do not say what the specific evidence was. Council say they did not report their concerns www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Hold on, are you trying to do Stop The Steal in *Greater fucking Manchester*?? LOL this country, man. FUCK IT, put another star on that spangled banner, we are the 51st and worst US state.

​Is my baby’s skin color why his life doesn't seem to matter? My heart breaks into pieces watching him slip away. Time is running out, and I’m terrified of losing my world. He is all I have. I beg you, please save my precious son, don’t let him die. 😭 Donation link 👇🏻 tinyurl.com/5asxjxv9 🙏🏾

French state-backed arms manufacturer KNDS – set to provide Ireland with up to €800 million in armoured vehicles – is a member of an Irish lobbying group that previously refused to publicly disclose its membership. www.ontheditch.com/up-to-eu800-...

Melinda French Gates gave Bill the elbow after his relationship with Epstein came to light. The hillbillies however...

Cover of Austrian magazine I saw at doctors office, "The new (dis)order". I find this type of stuff so frustrating. For 2 years, these outlets applauded the dismantling of int law and order when it came to Israel. Now theyre shocked the ramifications are not confined to Gaza.

📢At least 606 people seeking safety in Europe have died or gone missing in the Mediterranean sea since January 2026. This is considered the deadliest start to a year in over a decade, according to @unmigration.bsky.social.

Since the ceasefire agreement on Oct. 10, 2025, the #GazaStrip is divided by a dangerous, ambiguous and ever-expanding “yellow line” controlled by the Israeli military. One side of the line is under Israeli military control pushing people of #Gaza into the remaining 42 per cent.

🚨 Please don’t turn away My child is in critical condition in Gaza, and I am living every parent’s worst nightmare. We need urgent medical evacuation so he can receive proper treatment abroad. I am pleading with you — even a repost could help reach someone who can save him chuffed.org/project/168482

Just noting here that if a school headteacher anywhere in Britain had gone on National Front radio at any point in the last seventy years before now, it would’ve been a national scandal and she would’ve been dismissed instantly. Not now, of course.

Rising rents will lead to more evictions We are already at 1850s levels To think this is what the Irish Government is deliberately doing to its people When there are over 180,000 homes lying empty There is no social contract in Ireland, it has being long broken #SpeirGorm #DerelictIreland

Worst of all worlds if this becomes yet another US shakedown. Either the regime in Iran remains, or the US impose the son of the last Shah for an even bigger shakedown. Seems unlikely the US would support the popular movement for a democratic alternative.

Looks like McSweeney's been demoted to social media sub-editor...

Epstein, Israel and the UAE

'Trump recently signed a new decree that enables the imposition of tariffs on nations that supply oil to Cuba. He stated that the new measures were designed explicitly to “bring about hunger, desperation, and the overthrow of government.”' 1/

In some jurisdictions, eg South Africa, it is against the law to fight for a foreign military. In the UK, it's avl grey area. I wonder what is the law in Ireland, a neutral country.

'Ireland are set to play their controversial Nations League tie against Israel at the Aviva Stadium on 4 October.' One for the diary...

👀

🔴 3 Palestinians were killed and 6 injured in Israeli attacks in Gaza over the past 24 hours (covering Tuesday). ➤ Since Oct. 11, the first full day of the so-called ceasefire, Israel has killed at least 618 Palestinians & wounded 1,663, while 732 bodies have been recovered from under the rubble...

What an appalling waste of time and money people studying to degree level, training to be a journalist, and demonstrating time and again their flimsy grasp of the most basic facts and concepts.

Well finally an apology.

I'm sure recognising how fragile the Irish economy that they've built is will lead the government to take steps to move us away from so much reliance on Multinational tech compa... *holds hand up to earpiece* I'm being told this is about them wanting to spend more on the military

If you're in the UK, read the following and ask yourself: exactly how far away from this are we?

Even with the proposed new powers for the navy, it is highly unlikely it would become an effective defence, or deterrent, against attacks on submarine cables and pipelines. Could there be another reason for the legislation?

I was wondering when it would become clear that O'Donovan has had a rush of blood to the head and gone on a mad solo run without the backing of Cabinet

Ireland's housing system is not 'broken' - it's actually hugely efficient at doing what it is designed to do.

‘The Department of Foreign Affairs has refused their release because their publication could “substantially impair good working relationships between this country and another state”.’

Today we commemorate the #Februaristaking of 1941. 85 years ago, 300,000 workers in the Netherlands stopped work to protest the persecution of Jewish people under Nazi occupation. A collective act of courage. A stand for humanity. 🧵👇

Clearly Narrow West Street in Drogheda has had better days How was such a beautiful historic & significant town allowed to get vandalised like this, by some of the property owners? It is truly disgusting behaviour A social crime & should be treated as such #DerelictIreland #RestPlayWork #SpeirGorm

But surely Peter Mandelson would never visit a highly exclusive Caribbean island for dubious, self-interested purposes

Urgent humanitarian appeal My child is in critical condition after being shot by Israeli drones and is currently in surgery in Gaza He urgently needs medical treatment outside the Gaza Strip to survive Please donate and share your help could save a child’s life Donate here chuffed.org/project/168482

There are no ifs, buts or maybes about this. Restore Britain and Rupert Lowe are unapologetically far right neo-nazis, and by definition anyone supporting them is as well. This is going even further than Reform.

'Rothschild was so livid that gossip about the party had made the papers that he wrote a letter to the Times, insisting that the only impropriety to have taken place was Osborne trying to solicit from Deripaska, a foreign national, a donation to the Tory party. 1/

NEW: This is a terrific deep dive into Epstein & Russia by @professorshaw.bsky.social for @thenerve.news which starts with ‘Yachtgate’, Mandelson’s 2008 scandal involving Nat Rothschild, George Osborne & Russian oligarch, Oleg Deripaska 1/ www.thenerve.news/p/peter-mand...

"New powers to safeguard Irish sovereignty". We are left wondering.

My latest piece in Zeteo on the different lives that Palestinians and Israelis live as Israel continues to commit genocide

Benidorm the greatest example of immigrants refusing to learn the language, adopt the culture or integrate into society.

A 2023 article on Epstein connections now being covered as "new" info: stljewishlight.org/top-story/ma... Some of this information was out there long before 2023. But let's return to that year. What was the Biden admin justification for inaction on public crimes? Why the complacency/complicity?

Thing is. A child should have a needs assessment to identify what supports are necessary, in school and elsewhere. Then the resources should be allocated to the child, not the school. That this doesn't happen in one of the wealthiest countries in the world says a lot about how we're governed

"Beavers are extraordinary partners in our work to restore nature at scale. Over the last few years we’ve seen how their dams and wetlands transform the landscape, create habitat and help buffer both floods and drought." Ben Eardley, project manager at the National Trust

Beavers have been released into the wild to help restore British wetlands

We urgently need to get Thiel's "Palantir" out of our NHS and Ministry of Defence. What the f**k were we thinking?
