My God and my people.








Simulation illustrates what happens when the following 2 survival strategies are pitted against each other: White dots: treat everyone the way you want to be treated Red dots: treat your in-group the way you want to be treated; treat others as a resource to extract from What can we learn from this?

Immigration has been a positive thing for Ireland. We continue to need the skill sets that immigrants bring. Populists are those who offer simple solutions to complex problems. Immigration is an issue that needs to be managed just like all other public policy issues. My preference is to manage it from the pragmatic centre ground.



Quite an extraordinary interview on @RTELateLateShow last night. @BoyGeorge lived in Golders Green and speaks about his life long relationship Jewish people, explaining how his support for Jews has resulted in him receiving much abuse. Two defining moments come when he asked the audience if they know any Jewish people and is met by stone cold silence. The silence represents a combination of fear that admitting such relationships publicly might cause difficulty and the reality that most Irish people don't know any Jews. As he said himself, the silence is deafening. The second incredulous aspect of the interview is @PatricKielty's singular lack of empathy when speaking about Jews. Here is a public figure who has been rightly applauded for his brave public confrontation with the tragic sectarian murder of his father and the manner in which he has engaged with the loyalist community in the North. How is it that a man capable of extraordinary courage is blind to the persecution of another minority in the city of London where he calls home? Has he been corrupted by the RTE hive mind where the narrative around the issue of Israel and Jews is disturbingly unbalanced? So disappointed. Segment begins at 10.30.

Banksy dropped a new statue off in the middle of the night amongst the other military monuments in London. Lol.
