@Cathal_Dennehy I really dislike this. Its really spoiled it for spectators. I would love to know how the athletes feel about it.

@CareChampions2 @magnumlady This is scandalous. What is happening in this country?
English

Heartbreaking to see what is happening to the residents of the former Sonas Retirement Village in Enniscrone.
Imagine being in your 80s, having sold your family home for the security of a retirement village, only to be told you must leave by June 5th because the building was sold to a private company.
This is an absolute failure to protect our older people. With rental availability at an all-time low, never mind suitable accommodation, where are they supposed to go?

@edwardbrgr That needed saying. Delighted for Jessie, a fabulous talented person.
English

You’re calling her reaction “false” just because she was expected to win, as if being the frontrunner somehow makes the moment any less real. Jessie Buckley didn’t come out of industry privilege, she came from a small town in Ireland, got her start on I’d Do Anything, and instead of being uplifted, she was publicly torn down. She didn’t win, she came second, and left that experience feeling humiliated and objectified, with judges like Denise Van Outen and John Barrowman going in on her week after week. The only person who consistently backed her was Andrew Lloyd Webber, who saw something in her long before anyone else was ready to. That belief, alongside Cameron Mackintosh’s support, helped her get into RADA, where she trained rigorously, performed in Shakespeare productions like The Tempest, Henry V, Gabriel, and The Winter’s Tale, the latter produced by Kenneth Branagh, who is notoriously exacting when it comes to Shakespeare and graduated in 2013. After that, she moved to New York with no safety net, scraping together a career, even relying on the generosity of someone who believed in her enough to help cover basic living costs so she could keep going.
From there, she built everything step by step, supporting roles in television like War & Peace, a breakout lead in Beast, and then Wild Rose, where it became undeniable that she’s operating on a completely different level as both an actress and a singer. By the time she worked with Renée Zellweger on Judy, the pattern was already clear, serious talent recognized by serious artists, with Zellweger herself publicly saying Buckley was destined to be a star, echoing what Webber saw years earlier. So reducing her to “a bit much” when she finally reaches the peak of that climb is lazy cynicism. You’re inventing a narrative in your head and mistaking it for analysis. Buckley worked for every inch of this, and her reaction was entirely natural because moments like that aren’t planned, rehearsed, or manufactured. They hit all at once. For someone who never even assumed this kind of success was possible, of course it overwhelms you.
You say her tears seem fake, but if she’d jumped up and cheered, you’d be calling her cocky and arrogant. You don’t want authenticity, you just want something to nitpick. Funny how she can’t win either way, and even funnier how women so often get dragged for showing any kind of emotion, while men are praised for the exact same reactions. I don’t even like pulling the gender card in arguments like this, but at a certain point it stops being a coincidence and starts looking like a pattern.
Those tears were the most honest thing about her when she won, and anyone trying to tear that down says far more about their own cynicism than it ever will about her. Shame on you for reducing a hard earned, deeply human moment into something so cheap and dismissive just because you were upset, for some reason. Just shut the fuck up if you have nothing to say, really. Can't you just be happy about her for once? Let her celebrate for making history 🤷

@ObviousRises She asks "how do I say goodbye to my dad" I suggest "in Private".

I hate seeing this
Major Irish vegetable company goes into liquidation.
Owner Julian Hughes blamed “the last three years of wage and cost inflation” have taken its toll. The rain this winter was the final straw.
It goes with out saying that we should be doing everything we can to support Irish businesses but it’s especially true for food producers.
Irish Businesses are hanging on by the skin of their teeth right now. FF & FG don’t care.
No farmers no food.

@DamhlaicMac @Nick_Delehanty I hate this kind of misleading information. Who has time to check the small print on every item when shopping?

@Nick_Delehanty Agreed. Wicklow chicken....
"Made in Wicklow with 100% Chicken breast fillet"
"Produced in Ireland using EU and non EU chicken"

@iammeggan I don't know you Megg but that is beautiful and I'm sure it will help someone who needs to hear it.

@AlanBT5 @StupidNeilAgain Makes sense. Massive discipline needed to live that way. She probably wants to be there for her kids and is doing whatever she thinks might help.
English

@StupidNeilAgain She used to be quite a mad party girl.
Then she got cancer.
I think that was the point the huge lifestyle shift happened.

@francisxyzk That's beautiful. You seem to have had a wise head on very young shoulders.
