An important video message for anyone who has been following me on this website for science and nature conservation!

Dia dhaoibh ó Kyiv | Hello from Kyiv ☘️🇺🇦 I am in Ukraine to mark St Patrick’s Day and demonstrate Ireland’s unbreakable solidarity with Ukraine and its people. A busy agenda of political, civil society, and community engagements. 🇮🇪🤝🇺🇦🇪🇺 @IrlEmbUkraine

Kyiv-bound 🇺🇦 Settling in for the overnight train journey to Kyiv in advance of meetings with government, parliament and civil society. I will also mark St Patrick’s Day with the Irish community and friends to reflect our total solidarity with Ukraine and its people. 🇮🇪🤝🇺🇦🇪🇺

Sean Penn missed the Oscars ceremony where he received an Oscar, and went to Ukraine instead. Thank you for standing with Ukraine, Sir! Congratulations!

Happy St. Patrick's Day Fellas!

Trump has cut 100% of support to Ukraine over the past year. Don't be fooled 🇺🇲 American friends, he's left us to die here. Pathetic president LOVES to prolong wars and start new ones.

Millions of tourists from around the planet in Dubai have just witnessed what Ukrainians have had to deal with right in front of them. Perhaps this is the moment the world wakes up and realises what happens when you allow dictators to run wild.

nothing beats the death of a dictator 🥳

On 22 Feb, Dublin marked 4 years of Russia’s full-scale invasion with a peace march & rally supporting Ukraine. Ukrainians, Irish partners, politicians and diplomats stood united. Security of Ukraine is security of Europe. 🇺🇦 #StandWithUkraine

Just listened to it. Orwellian. Yet again. She falsely claimed they supported sanctions on Russia. She claimed it’s a waste of money for Ukraine to defend itself – just days after praising ‘defender of catholics’ Bik McFarlane. And called Sinn Féin’s position ‘principled’!

@EastVeterans In her defence, I was at the rally today and her words were head and shoulders above what the other politicians said. Better and more precise and even hawkier pro Ukraine language. There was also a contingent in the march from Labour and Soc Dems, but no other parties.

Labour out in support of Ukraine today. Same party cosies up to Putins Puppets in Ireland Sinn Fein 🇷🇺, People before Putin and the idiotic Social Democrats Make up your mind Ivana. facebook.com/share/r/1ZgKYj…

A 23-year-old policewoman died as a result of the explosion. 😪 Victoria Shpylka was from Volyn, and later moved to Kherson with her parents. She graduated from the Lviv State University of Internal Affairs and worked in the ranks of the patrol police, first in Kherson region, then in Lviv region. R.I.P. 🕯💔

Fintan O’Toole draw parallels between Ukraine’s fight to live free of the Russian fascist yoke and Republican Spain’s struggle to defeat fascism – and how SF is proud of Irish republicans’ role in that noble cause. Yet today, SF is betraying that heritage.

@fotoole exposes this terrible decision by Sinn Fein to support Putin's invasion of Ukraine "Since Sinn Féin regards those brave Irish people who chose to intervene in Spain as heroes, one would assume that it has some understanding of the reasons why they were right to sacrifice their lives. But, astonishingly, Ireland’s largest political party is increasingly vehement in its insistence on, of all things, non-intervention. It insists, not just that Ireland should not help Ukraine to survive, but that no one should.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026/0…

@Mylovanov @DucuGavril There's a certain cohort of Irish republican who has spent their lives claiming that the Irish Free State discarded the north of Ireland and that Dublin & Ireland are traitors, while at the same time insulting Ukraine and Zelensky for fighting to keep their country intact 🙄

@barrykenny Thank you Barry!!!

@AdamFSmith Great feature on RTÉ News! 🐿️ 🦌 🦊

Remembrance is not a violation.

@iocmedia Remembrance is not a violation, and we will remember them

🚨IOC statement 1/3 Skeleton pilot Vladylsav Heraskevych not allowed to participate at Milano Cortina 2026 after refusing to adhere to the IOC athlete expression guidelines Having been given one final opportunity, skeleton pilot Vladylsav Heraskevych from Ukraine will not be able to start his race at the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games this morning. The decision followed his refusal to comply with the IOC’s Guidelines on Athlete Expression. It was taken by the jury of the International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation (IBSF) based on the fact that the helmet he intended to wear was not compliant with the rules. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has therefore decided with regret to withdraw his accreditation for the Milano Cortina 2026 Games. Despite multiple exchanges and in-person meetings between the IOC and Mr Heraskevych, the last one this morning with IOC President Kirsty Coventry, he did not consider any form of compromise. The IOC was very keen for Mr Heraskevych to compete. This is why the IOC sat down with him to look for the most respectful way to address his desire to remember his fellow athletes who have lost their lives following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The essence of this case is not about the message, it is about where he wanted to express it.

"Anti imperialists" hate supporting countries suffering from imperialism

You know what's also missing? A bunch of Ukrainians who are dead now. So who gives a shit if these assholes can't play in the Olympics? Maybe if they stop invading other countries and murdering civilians we'll let them play hockey again. FFS Gino, give your head a shake.

Lmao, you never had any sympathy for Ukraine, only for Russian soldiers, you stupid liar
