I spoke about the Government’s ridiculous proposal to criminalise cyclists who don’t wear helmets 🪖
The fact they even proposed this betrays their complete lack of understanding of what makes our roads unsafe for cyclists & pedestrians 🚗🚙 @labour.ie @dublincycling.bsky.social

Ok. You're right. But why stop at cyclists? Let's make pedestrians wear high-vis and helmets too! It's safer right? Actually, let's make absolutely everyone wear high-vis and helmets at all times everywhere (except people in cars obviously!) so people driving cars feel better

Labour Senator Laura Harmon says the Government should consider banning social media platform X entirely in Ireland in response to the ‘undressing’ scandal.
“If there was a factory created down the road this morning that was producing these kind of images, it would be shut down immediately.”

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

By far, the worst half of football I've watched since the new rules came in. Soul destroying stuff. Glenullin absolutely disgraceful in allowing An Gaelteacht to kick it back and forth along their own 45 for half an hour. Surely it can't get much worse in the second half. #GAABeo

It's the first column of the new year and it's grimmer than ever before, my friends.

Yaay, can’t wait to see the Irish wine industry take off. We may have nothing to actually eat in future but we’ll hopefully be too hammered to care.

John Wilson: Could Ireland benefit as climate change makes wine production difficult in warmer climes?
We are likely to see a move to cooler regions and countries including Scandinavia, Britain and, yes, even Ireland

They're going to have to mic up the referees with these new rules. Very confusing at times trying to figure out what's going on. All in all though, new rules are brilliant. Making for very exciting games! #GAA

Naomh Pádraig have rolled on to Croke Park for the All Ireland final in two weeks.
What a day in Parnell Park. Game of the season & a fully deserved win.
Thrilled for every man on that pitch today, and so proud of my dad and my brother Eoghan in the management team.
We go again. Hon Muff!

But but but it costs TOO MUCH to tackle #climate change, it’s so much cheaper to just let it happen. Just ask any mainstream economist.

Happy days so far. Nothing to be taken for granted obviously, but a good start 🤞🤞🌹🌹

Wouldn't rule anything out until the Wexford Town boxes come in. I wonder could Mick Wallace get a big boost from them? All ahead still!
