Anyway, the above is backed up by open source investigation tools, and it's baffling that more people aren't actively working to hold him accountable.

Has an account under the name registered w/ all kinds of stuff including banking services. He has used the username "Ballaghnoher" a small misspeling of Ballaghanoher, a tiny place in Offaly.

So, over a decade ago, one of the papers, identified the bank account connected to his blog as being in Offaly under Tim O'Keeffe. At the time, it was brushed off as "his friend" by an alleged friend. But he has used the name "Tadgh O'Caoimh" in the years that followed.

Of course, this man fails to say Niall Stokes had also sent a legal threat not just Wendy. What kind of "journalist" Tyranesen was to speculate about folks without offering a right to reply? He says he had "consensual sex" with his source. What kind of "journalist" does that anyway?

nwl Mr T aka Thomas Barton, implies only Wendy Lyon sent a legal threat to Olaf

Is it a bug that you (nwl ~75) claimed to have deleted a post naming an asylum seeker illegally, but it is still accessible on your X account? (Or you only huff and puff to delete the posts X asks you to in order to unlock your account to continue feeding your social media addiction?

In addition to being totally pathetic, he's also completely wrong.
EPA polls consistently show that the vast majority, across all ages, incomes , urban or rural, all want the government to take action.
So by polarising, he must mean that Micheal o Leary,Amazon, and Tirlan don't want it

I find this stuff extra funny after Heather Humphries said yesterday that she doesn't have a party piece and her best skill is "listening"

Fumbling the soft ball as your opponents solos footballs and sliotars

"Heather Humphrys says she does not have a party piece. "My best skill set is listening. I love people. I'm a genuine people person and I will bring that to the presidency"

Is it just me or does it seem like every time they try to go for Catherine Connolly it backfires and people become even more staunch in their support of her?

Heather Humphreys won’t say if she paid an anti-vacancy tax on her unused residential property.

Humphreys has left the property unoccupied for the last 14 years, during which time the vacant homes tax was introduced.

Humpheys won’t say if she paid vacant homes tax

She’s left the property unoccupied for more than a decade.

It's eternally frustrating that the HSE has the blinkers on & only looks to UK when it comes to trans healthcare when Spain & Malta are right there! In Spain I can walk into a pharmacist & get estrogen patches. No GP, no traumatic assessments. Just medicine without the bullshit and no one is harmed.

I’m at the Oslo trans healthcare conference today and have just been listening to Rosa Almiral of the Spanish trans healthcare service say “We have a waiting list of three weeks.” !!!!!!!!!!

The all channels attacks on Catherine Connolly are because, as with Irish Water, Ireland's right wing establishment have an unpopular project (de facto joining the "Western military alliance") that the hoi polloi aren't sophisticated enough to grasp the necessity of and desperation is setting in.

if one of our brave correspondents would like to ask Heather Humphreys why she refused to meet with disability activists during the Scrap the Green Paper campaign, it might take a little edge off the appearance of rank bias in their conduct during this election

Not sure I can actually face 2 more weeks of this.

All this from Fine Gael just smacks of desperation.

Not this again. It's already an offence to threaten & abuse people in a public place. It's about four different offences. The problem isn't the lack of law; it's lack of enforcement. (Cf. the UK making "stealing a pet" an offence, as if theft isn't already illegal)

Union want Ireland to follow Scotland's lead in legislating for abuse of bar and retail staff
