Europe again Europe again Ole Ole #nffc

What a night!!! So this is what a great European night looks like 😃 Magnificent atmosphere Magnificent management team #nffc

Well worth a watch, get the feel good factor back ❤️🌳 #nffc youtu.be/beBL5Tva7Ew?...

Enjoyed doing this earlier. Always great to chat with Lewis, especially off camera. Love the guy @mattdaviesff.bsky.social is alright too 😆😆

A rather excellent night canvassing in Rathfarnham for #aras25 #CatherineConnolly

This British World War II poster would probably be considered "woke" today.

Matchday ⚽️ #nffc

Really happy to get some traction on this. This is incredible in the middle of a housing crisis www.independent.ie/regionals/du...

Happy 74th Birthday to American actor MarkHamill - seen here as Luke Skywalker in a publicity still with co-stars the late actors Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia, Peter Mayhew as Chewbacca and Harrison Ford as Han Solo in fantasy space opera "STAR WARS" (1977)

The narrative around Steen and Sheridan being 'blocked' that's been swallowed hook, line and sinker by the media is incredible. Independent Ireland only came on board last minute, neither could convince 20 Independents and they chose to target a specific Cllr cohort #Aras25

Postering again ole ole 😀 Great night out with fantastic volunteers #Aras25 #CatherineConnolly

Maria Ressa, "By design, social media platforms spread lies six times faster. If laced with fear, anger, hate, it goes viral. They change the way we vote" This is how they got Brexit over the line in 2016

South Dublin County Council will not nominate a candidate for President. 30 for no nomination and 2 abstentions #aras25

TV shows cancelled, people sacked or put on black lists... all for daring to speak the truth about "free speech warrior" Charlie Kirk. America has plunged head first into some very dark territory indeed. www.bbc.com/news/article...

The most maddening thing about watching the right suddenly pretend they're concerned about hate speech and embracing cancel culture means that when they firmly held the exact inverse position a week ago, it was also insincere and performative.

Is this simply just a Tory rebrand? Reform are simply 1980s Thatcherites.

Boris Johnson and Brexit are the only reason these small boats exist. Before 2018 there were ZERO.

1. Azerbaijan hasn't been at war with Albania. Trump confuses Albania with Armenia. But he wants credit, a Nobel Prize, for ending a war in which he can't identify the parties. 2. The Fox hosts are too ignorant or too sycophantic to correct him. 3. Imagine if Biden had said this.

So today, the USA government is going full ‘cancel culture’ & London is being turned into a ‘no-go zone’ for millions of its residents. And it’s all being done by people who profess to loathe both phenomena…

I look at the ugly state of politics in the USA and ask myself how anyone with a brain would want that imported here... but then ... Reform...

We're on the p1ss with Nuno 😃 #nffc

Reform - the home of free speech

You can guarantee there'll be no political consequences. The British media will just shrug its shoulders. The game is rigged

The individuals seeking a nomination for President from County Councils remind me of all those non Councillor candidates who run and look for votes on the Seanad Vocational Panels. Full of hope and enthusiasm but rarely successful #Aras25

This is how it needs to be done. Farage exposed for the charlatan he is. The British media and press absolutely pitiful in comparison 🙄

#Aras25 Presidential Election Order signed Nominations Open: 5th Sep 10 am Nominations Close: 24th Sep 12 noon Election Day: 24th Oct 7am - 10pm Electoral Register Deadline Oct 7th www.gov.ie/en/departmen...

Well done to the Nottingham Post. 👏👏👏

Polling in the Presidential Election is set to take place on Friday 24th October 🗳️ #Aras25

The ever calm @marina-purkiss.bsky.social on point as usual

Next stop Bramall Lane? Eerily similar start for Sheffield United to ours before he took over at Forest #nffc #sufc #blades

I forgot how tedious European draws were 🙄 No need for a magician it's not a kids birthday party #europa

Nigel Farage was largely culpable for Brexit, now generally accepted even by eejits as one of the worst ideas of all time. That he is allowed to dodge the blame for this, day after day, suggests that England has already destroyed itself.

But still, they stay on X… Brexit prejudice and lies, the ‘legitimate concerns’ bullshit and allowing social media sites to become cesspits of radicalisation and conspiracy theory… have all led to this dismal place. A total failure of politics and journalism. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

This is outstanding. God knows what Labour is doing: legitimising the racism that'll be its undoing, losing the coalition which put it in office, trying to secure voters who will never support it, digging its own moral grave. observer.co.uk/news/opinion...

Englishcentric British Nationalism. It's been around since devolution but now at full throttle because of media sympathy and the lead opposition parties jumping on the bandwagon.

Good on the Mirror for having the bravery to strike out against this bullshit

Reminder that in 2021, Senate Republicans filibustered a bill by Democrats that would have banned partisan gerrymandering of congressional districts.

Couldn't run a bath

Genuinely crazy. Facilitated by a weak media. Reform have no rational policies beyond grievance and misinformation. There previous iteration delivered brexit which is costing British citizens €2k a year in lost income.

It's a very short walk from here to "Anne Frank died of typhus, thus there were no gas chambers."

Cracking day out in Nottingham yesterday. What a start to the season ⚽️⚽️⚽️ #nffc

Matchday ⚽️ 🍻 ⚽️ 🍻 #nffc

UEFA gets a lot of legitimate criticism but the decision to introduce this competition has been a fantastic addition for countries like Ireland. Getting into the league stage of this competition is now a realistic aim for our clubs #uefa

every “ancient tradition” was invented between 1848-1870 and every “modern perversion” is so ancient as to predate writing

“Putin would eat you for lunch.” Today, exactly that happened.

A fairly shambolic start to this campaign it has to be said. Did his campaign advisers not see these questions coming? I cannot see how he gets four Local Authorities to nominate him.

Last Council meeting of the summer. Packed agenda #SDCC

Out and about in Rathfarnham yesterday. I really enjoy the no pressure newsletter drops. Loads of time to chat and not having to canvass!

Really delighted to propose and support Cllr Pamela Kearns as the new Mayor of South Dublin County Council. She'll be a phenomenal Mayor and first citizen #SouthDublin
