@IsabelO20183051 It seems Trump and Netanyahu are having a go at Sanchez and Spain for its refusal to allow the US use bases in Spain in their war against Iran. The invasion of Cueta was orchestrated. The reaction from the EU to the threat to Greenland (Denmark) and Cueta (Spain) is stark.

“It's mind-blowing that no European country has stood in solidarity with Spain and offered help. What's more, they blame Spain for what's happening in Ceuta when it's a maneuver orchestrated by Morocco. That says it all about the massive pile of shit that the European Union is.
Héctor 💻@hdelosrios2
Es acojonante que ningún país europeo se haya solidarizado con España y ofrecido su ayuda. Es más, culpan a España de lo de Ceuta cuando es una maniobra organizada por Marruecos. Eso da la medida de la enorme mierda que es la Unión Europea. Hay que tomar nota.

@EwanMacKenna And Micheál Martin talks about removing the Triple Lock "in terms of protecting Ireland's sovereignty"

This is the hierarchy of power and decision making in the west. Remember it when questioning policy and laying blame around major events.

@ChaseMit It's a story from Greek mythology so it's not a depiction of an actual historical event. Why get upset about it one way or another?

@DublinCommuters Government plans are just a set of aspirations, without budgets, detailed plans or milestones. Also there is no single government agency responsible for delivery.

It’s actually a €0 expansion because this is another Transport project that isn’t in the NDP… so there’s no money to build it
Government could use the entire €8.5b of fiscal space on Transport and it still wouldn’t be enough to catch up

@williamhboney1 @rte @MichealMartinTD Commercial TV is a sunset industry. 20% of people don't have a TV and about another 60% don't watch RTE
English
This morning we learn @rte is looking for yet another bailout.
@rte is bankrupt, Bakhurst told you all so.
Why don’t you believe him @MichealMartinTD, you believe everything else he tells you?

Independent headline: "RTÉ to ask State for bigger bailout, as one in five households now has no TV." Commercial TV channels = sunset industry so the bailout should be reduced, not increased.

Trump cheated, then the U.S. got its ass handed to it.
This is like a repeat of the war on Iran.

@dlLambo The US is treating the FIFA rules of football the same as it treats the 'international rules-based order'
English
When football itself has become so corrupt.
When FIFA & UEFA ignore their own rulebooks.
When some nations are treated differently to all others.
The FAI general assembly this Wednesday can make its feelings clear and not endorse it any more on behalf of Ireland.

At its core, the European Union is a democracy.
Yesterday in Strasbourg, I was glad to join Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD in meeting with serving Irish members of the European Parliament, to discuss our EU Presidency policy priorities.

The prosperous Ukraine of tomorrow requires massive investment today.
We are disbursing €3.2 billion under the new Ukraine Support Loan.
This will help strengthen the country's macro-financial stability and ensure the continuity of essential state functions.
