It's a tad frosty in the land of the third rail rail this morning.
This is the fireworks show provided by an icy conductor rail when you are the first train of the day along the line.

Girlfriend called me in a panic. She had called the police who had swarmed our son's preschool because he was missing, nobody could find him. Cops had a helicopter out, dogs everywhere, and everything. Turned out I dropped him off at the wrong preschool that morning.

So it seems the claim of 30% increase in judicial review in 2025 was based on the number to 26 June & *a guess* at a number for July to Dec (which wasn’t fact checked & is wrong)
.. & that erroneous claim is the entire justification for govt plan to limit access to the courts #Speirgorm #Planning

The truth?
The Irish public doesn't WANT their national rivers and lakes turned into stinking, dying, cesspools for profit by a particular commercial sector, that also happens to be very heavily subsidised by people's taxes.
Yet that's what this government continues to push for.

Before the invasion began, the Russian leadership received reports that 70% of Ukrainians were for Russia and 30% against. It turned out the opposite, 30% for and 70% against."
I would say that even those 70% were too optimistic and today it is certainly close to 99%.
