Excellent article on Dublin's £40m investment in Magee.

@caoimhearchibald.bsky.social must set up an Oversight Commission to protect this.

We also must ensure bilingual signage is erected across the campus immediately.

Very much enjoyed my conversation with Eoin McNamee at Cairde in sunny Sligo last night.

And thanks to a great audience.

@RIAdawson has twice now demanded a Scrutiny Commission.
It’s time to act, Minister Archibald.
