Wes Streeting has received £225k from private healthcare donors in the past year and I just don't think my morals could be bought for the price of half a London flat. I don't know if I have a number that would make me sell my country's health service down the river but Wes and I are different.

It's a second for Republic of Ireland, and it's a second for Troy Parrott.
Roberto Martinez's side need three points to qualify for next summer's World Cup. They have a lot of work to do.

Not only is this on track to be the highest FPV% ever in a Presidential election, it's also going to be the highest raw vote total in a Presidential election. Historic performance from Catherine Connolly. #Áras25

I need every journalist to point out that even if steen got the finger out and got on the ballot (she didn't), and even if all the spoiled votes would have gone to her (they wouldn't), she would have still come last

It's all just so frustrating and predictable, isn't it? For years people have been warning of the far right rising in Ireland and we've been laughed at and dismissed by the media and the government. In turn, the govt. have not acted, have treated right wing agitators with kid gloves.

"Protesting", RTÉ news calls it, then turns their replies off in case anyone should point out it's racists and thugs rioting against international protection applicants
Several thousand people are protesting outside a centre for international protection applicants at the Citywest Hotel in south county Dublin.

It doesn't matter if you're into food and restaurants, this is a must-read on the importance of fact-checking and subject-matter experts (and a mini exposé on how a particular food enterprise in Dublin is capitalising on its absence in Irish media). www.allthefood.ie/single-post/...
Is new Dublin restaurant Entrecôte connected to the French originals?
A few weeks ago this Instagram page appeared, announcing a "world famous French bistro" was coming to Dublin. Ears were pricked, and questions abounded about exactly which "Entrecôte" was coming to Ir...

One of the less known aspects about the Easter Rising is that Indian students at UCD also took part & were then deported by the British authorities for it. Among those students was V.V. Giri who became president of India and said “when I am not an Indian, I am an Irishman”

I got a flu booster today and it made me reflect on the sense of national accomplishment I felt when I drove to a public facility, waited in my car until my number was called on an app, and got my first covid jab. It's fucked the right gets to erase what a moment of technological liberation that was

People do this in healthcare and it always irritates me. “Look at that patient. They sit there with an iPhone but say they can’t afford their medications?” Buddy, you are mad at the wrong thing.
Never take seriously those who ridicule low income people for having a smartphone or laptop.
“If they’re so poor how did they buy an iPhone???”
Because they’re trying to escape poverty, not the 1700s, genius. If you think basic tech access is unnecessary or a luxury, survive a month without it.
