There's been speculation that there may be a change in Fianna Fáil leadership after Ireland’s term as President of the Council of the EU closes. Regardless of when Micheál Martin might step away as the party leader, who do you think should replace him? jrnl.ie/7040569

@wereontheditch This creep was an op for the Communist Party while working for the Hong Kong government... To bring internet to underprivileged children. Yeah I'd say that's not someone to trust with young peoples data. Protect your children from online predators who often work on the inside.

The head of the Irish media regulator was described as a “conspirator” during a Hong Kong parliamentary probe – but claims he blew the whistle on “political interference” in a controversial €20 million contract award. ontheditch.com/coimisiun-na-m…

@thejournal_ie "He was the sole director. It was really just admin, and there were no board meetings or anything like that." Soc Dems candidate just admitted to violating the Companies Act, as Secretary Director of the company there are legal responsibilities to hold AGM/ written resolution.

Social Democrats' byelection candidate Daniel Ennis on Bertie Ahern's comments: 'I’ll never stand for commentary like that… because that was us once, us in the north inner city, and Bertie knows that, so that’s absolutely vile.' jrnl.ie/7038951

@thejournal_ie The Data Centre lobby are heavy on bots this morning, conflating their 50% consumption of the national grid under the cover of "climate change isn't man made" but it is absolutely the responsibility of corporate enterprises

Ireland is "exposed to global energy shocks” as a result of its dependence on imported fossil fuels, according to the Climate Change Advisory Council. A further warning states that rising data centre demand is offsetting gains in renewable generation. jrnl.ie/7037689

Sanctions are not an alternative to war; they are an even more deadly form of unconventional warfare. Western sanctions killed roughly 38 million people over 50 years. The US government has imposed sanctions on approximately one-third of the countries on Earth, including more than 60% of low-income nations, according to a 2024 report in the Washington Post. A peer-reviewed academic article published in 2025 in the leading medical journal The Lancet concluded “that sanctions do kill: economic sanctions imposed by the USA or the EU were associated with 564,258 deaths … annually from 1971 to 2021, higher than the annual number of battle-related casualties (106,000 deaths)”. geopoliticaleconomy.com/2026/05/09/tru…

Paris pollution after they added bike lanes and restricted cars

@DamianS1976 @DrEoin true and anyway phytocannabinoid delivery systems (such as a dry herb vaporisers and electronic dab rigs) can be safer and more effective than the steroids used in asthma inhalers plus all the other additives used

@DrEoin Propylene glycol is also in asthma inhalers and nebulizers

There is so much misinformation about vaping that is risibly hilarious. I can guarantee you that you eat propylene glycol, you rub it on your faces, you wash your hair with it. It's in your ice cream as E1520, or; propane-1,2-diol. You consume more than any vaper would daily.

We are seriously on track to see the world’s first trillionaire before every human being has access to clean drinking water. Think about how insane that is.🤯 There is enough wealth on this planet to make sure nobody dies from thirst, starvation, exposure, or lack of healthcare, but instead we glorify extreme wealth accumulation while basic human needs go unmet. A system should be judged by how it treats the most vulnerable, not by how many billionaires it creates! Unbelievable.

France's intelligence delegation wants to add "ghost participants" to encrypted chats. Silent, invisible state agents added to your private conversations without your knowledge. This idea was floated in 2018. Every credible security researcher rejected it. Now it's back. reclaimthenet.org/france-moves-t…

@cryptorover Yet when you zoom out we are equal to the same position at this time last year.

🚨 THIS IS INSANE If you bought $136K worth of potatoes last month, you’d be a millionaire today. Potato prices just exploded from €2.5 to €18.5 per 100KG as fertilizer supplies shrink after the Strait of Hormuz closure.

@IrishTimes Phil Hogan working at the UN food security agency benefits no one. Hogan was the EU Commissioner for Agriculture when the UAE's royal family bought 57,000ha farmland in the EU and drain 1/3rd of the EU's farming budget through public money that is intended for small EU farmers.

Documents reveal a plan to back Phil Hogan for a key UN post stirred tensions between two Government departments irishtimes.com/politics/2026/…

Every oyster and mussel sample collected near Chichester Harbour came back contaminated with fibreglass. Not some of them. Every one. Researchers from the Universities of Brighton and Portsmouth found up to 11,220 fibreglass particles per kilogram in oysters and 2,740 per kilogram in mussels collected near an active boatyard in one of England's most popular sailing destinations. The particles come from ageing fibreglass boats — glass reinforced plastic (GRP) — breaking down in the water during maintenance season and entering the marine food chain through filter feeders. This is the first study to document this level of contamination in natural bivalve populations. The problem is structural, not incidental. Fibreglass has been the dominant material in recreational boat manufacturing since the 1960s. Millions of vessels built during that era are now reaching the end of their usable life, and there is no coordinated system in Europe for tracking or managing them. As Dr. Corina ciocan of Brighton put it: "There is no coordinated system in Europe for tracking or managing end-of-life fibreglass boats. That creates a serious regulatory gap." Via Artemisa Forbes

🚨 UK ALERT WARNING 🚨 Tons of sprayed toxic particulates have been released over the Celtic Sea & are heading to the UK. Shortly the sky will be totally blanketed over blocking all sunlight & the air will be heavily contaminated with nano heavy metal poisons & synthetic fibers.

BREAKING: HSBC fully withdraws its shareholdings in Israel's biggest weapons producer, Elbit Systems. In the previous quarter, the bank dumped 96% of its shares in Elbit. After sustained direct action, HSBC has now ended all of its investments in Israel's Elbit Systems.

@MariaPIreland One hour of pay will go towards parking, one hour on petrol, one hour on lunch, 55% of income goes back to the State on taxes, so the take-home pay from working an 8-hour shift is equivalent to around 3 hours after costs. Not to mention the time lost travelling to and from work.

Imagine spending 1.5 BILLION on a new hospital that will have over 5000 staff and between planners BAM & the Government they signed off and agreed to create only 330 parking spaces 🅿️ 330 spaces for all visitors and staff. Incredible.

Éamonn Ceannt was executed 110 years ago today, in #1916. These are his pipes near his cell in Kilmainham Gaol, #dublin.

Psychedelics are not drugs to be patented by pharmaceutical companies and regulated by the U.S. government.

I can assure you, any attempts to impose age verification through software or the web have nothing to do with "children's safety", and everything to do with eroding anonymity, digital privacy, and expanding government surveillance and control.

Before Privatisation, Ireland had the lowest electricity prices in Europe now we have the highest. The whole energy racket is completely manufactured to enrich the Oligarchs at the expense of people who are needlessy suffering.
