Succinct and relatable…

Fascinating that these far right are terrorists if UK says they are; same thugs rioting outside a refugee centre in West Dublin are ‘activists’ & ‘concerned locals’. They’re not linked, they’ll say.

It’s 15:15. The sun rose above the yardarm hours ago. It’s a dismal, rainy late October day… so I thought… why not. If I fancy a martini… I should have one. So here it is; with a twist of lemon. #Martini
