While unionized Starbucks workers are on strike for a fair contract, don’t cross the picket line!

Show solidarity — like Zohran Mamdani and Bernie Sanders.

Listen to what they had to say.

All the hoohaa about naming or renaming a park in Ranelagh, my tuppence worth… we should name the park the Werner Herzog Park. After all he made that batshit crazy movie about a batshit crazy fictional Irishman, Brian Sweeney Fitzgerald

Ten years ago today, my father suddenly died aged 69. He’s sadly missed by of of us in the family, and our extended family, the wider community. He was a tieless worker, organising events for young and old and representing the people The Liberties in various committees

Great to see ‘the little hall’ being used for artists studios. Many a St Audoen’s school play held there as a small boy and bingo with my grandfather…
The council is pushing forward with a plan for 20 new artist studios and a revived theatre on Merchant’s Quay. If it gets planning permission for the €9.5 million project on schedule, construction could start next September, according to a council official.

No shit Sherlock! Anything else you missed when you were on the job, Patrick?
The former governor of the Central Bank, Patrick Honohan, has said the organisation was probably too trusting of the banks when it was dealing with the tracker mortgage scandal.

Ireland is the 6th freest country in the world, economically speaking. In fact, the Fraser Institute's Economic Freedom Report judges Ireland to be the freest in the EU for working, transacting, contracting, and owning and using productive property. 🇮🇪👏

A “neglected” studio window in the Liberties has become a galaxy of artists’ eyes. In recent years, artists’ studios have been encouraged to be more public-facing in their set-ups.

Spare thought for the staff in #aras25 count centres around the country who, despite knowing for hours that this has been a landslide, still have to wait around and be formally told by Dublin Castle that a second count will not be needed

Yeats on the RTE claiming that a) he has nothing to do with the Blueshirts in over two decades and b) the #SmearTheBejayaus was weaponised against Humphreys. What revisionist gaslighting bullshit it this? SYBAU!
