Attended last night’s launch in Edinburgh of the Scottish Chapter of the British-Irish Chamber of Commerce. I first became involved in Scottish-Irish ties when I arrived in Edinburgh as Consul General in 1998. Things have come a long way since then. @IrlCGEdinburgh

@DanMulhall Very nice to see you yesterday Dan, a great event and we inherited some very solid foundations!

Wishing the very best of luck to Ireland’s women’s rugby team as they kick off their World Cup journey here in the UK. We were proud to welcome them at Heathrow today - now it’s time to get behind them and ride the Green Wave all the way! 💚🏉 #GreenWave #WeAreIreland

A wonderful UK debut at @edfilmfest for Galway & Berlin festival award winner Christy A moving & funny exploration of broken families, North Cork city community spirit & Irish rap, this @ScreenIreland & @BBCFilm production is well worth seeing! Tickets↘️edfilmfest.org/film/christy/

Wonderful to join the cast and crew of Lost Lear which today won a @scotsman_arts Fringe First awards. Congratulations to everyone involved for this production which is supported by @culture_ireland and underlines some of the world class Irish talent currently touring globally.

We were delighted to join @HibernianFC to mark the 150th anniversary of the club by Limerick man Canon Edward Hannan in 1875. Fantastic to see so many jerseys, memorabilia & the new plaque to mark this important milestone as well as to explore more Irish Scottish sporting links
