aye, when

@MrJamesMay It's also got a DNR. Have you got a DNR?

This old Golf I’m driving has a ‘metal’ button on the radio/cassette. I’d completely forgotten about that.

@JamesMelville Belfast is better 👍

I know I’m biased because it’s my hometown, but in my opinion, St Andrews in Fife is the best town in Britain. It has everything. Ancient history. Beautiful Georgian architecture. The home of golf. West Sands beach (immortalised in the opening scene of Chariots of Fire). Staggeringly beautiful enormous skylines. Endless great pubs, restaurants, independent shops and a vibrancy that is sadly lacking in so many towns right now. It’s an unbelievably special place. ♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

So the cancer from the arsehole of the world has cancer in his arsehole. How fitting.

LMAO I swear this was the most brutal roasting of Trump so far I have ever seen he would go literally mad if he had seen this 😭😂🤣

@ManusSinead Everything they're saying is shite. I've worked up these tunnels and they are talking crap.

Searched so thoroughly - they arrived on Tuesday to scope for 3 hours but not search. Came back Wednesday, hostile crowd- broke for lunch- returned for 1/2hr or so- left to clean equipment Tides were the concern then! Came back Thursday & left it to dive team. ‘Thoroughly’ 💔

British and American far-right spent all weekend talking about a non-existent "horror stabbing" in Connolly Station. Needless to say nobody was stabbed but truth is optional with these people. It'd be great if they crawl under a rock and stop spreading lies about Ireland.

@RobLooseCannon Still have a copy of my das interment letter. Dodged the first round up due to said tip off, finally caught him and he had a static cruise on the Maidstone lol.

In the early hours of 9 August 1971, armoured Saracens rolled through the streets of Belfast. Soldiers hammered down doors and dragged half naked men from their beds, pulled from the arms of wives and screaming kids, and bundled them into vehicles without charge, explanation or any pretence of legal process. By the end of the initial sweep, 342 people were in custody. The British state had decided that the way to end the violence in Northern Ireland was to lock people up indefinitely and ask questions later. This was Operation Demetrius, and it was one of the most catastrophically misjudged security decisions of the twentieth century. The bright idea came from Brian Faulkner, the Unionist Prime Minister of Stormont, who had taken office in March 1971 following his predecessor's resignation under the pressure of escalating violence. Faulkner wanted to "smash the IRA" through mass internment under the Special Powers Act. British Prime Minister Edward Heath signed off on it at a meeting on 5 August 1971. The British cabinet had actually recommended a more balanced approach, including the arrest of loyalist militants, the confiscation of weapons held by unionist rifle clubs, and a ban on parades. Faulkner’s sectarianism brushed all of this aside. There was no such thing as "loyalist terrorism". Despite the very active campaign of loyalist paramilitary murders. The intelligence underpinning the operation was, to put it generously, inaccurate. The RUC files on which the arrest lists were based dated largely from the 1950s. When soldiers went out to round up the IRA's dangerous men, they found themselves detaining retired activists, civil rights organisers, and individuals with no paramilitary connection whatsoever. Over a hundred of the original 342 were released within 48 hours. The IRA's actual leadership, meanwhile, had been tipped off. A mole in the Northern Ireland civil service had reportedly warned the Provisionals that internment was coming. Senior figures had been instructed in late July not to sleep at home. By the most generous estimate, around 2,000 IRA activists remained at large in the weeks after the operation launched. What Demetrius succeeded in doing, with some efficiency, was arresting the wrong people. We'll visit the resultant Ballymurphy Massacre another day, but lets see what happened to the lads black-bagged from their homes. For those arrested, the ordeal had just begun. A small group, later known as the Hooded Men, were subjected to what the British authorities called "deep interrogation." Fourteen men in total experienced the "Five Techniques". This was enforced wall-standing in stress positions for hours, permanent hooding except during questioning, continuous exposure to a high-pitched white noise, sleep deprivation, and deprivation of food and drink. Some were taken up in helicopters and thrown out, believing they were hundreds of feet in the air. They were actually close to the ground, but they did not know that. This sickening example of Mock Execution on innocent people is beyond disgusting. The Parker Report, published in March 1972 following a government inquiry, found the techniques to be illegal under domestic law. The European Court of Human Rights ruled in 1978 that they constituted inhuman and degrading treatment, arguing that they met the legal threshold for torture. British justice once again delivered the primary result of inducing hatred via cruelty and hypocrisy. Radicalising even the most peaceful people through systematic injustice.

@NgocThach74 Still my favourite song.

This is incredible. 42 years later, and it still hits like day one.

@Alan__Shatter Do you ever stop yapping ya bell end.

Statement by Alan Shatter, Chair of Magen David Adom Ireland* “ The cancellation by the National Concert Hall of MDA Ireland’s scheduled private fund raising event can be properly described as an act of antisemitic censorship “ says Shatter “ The National Concert Hall  disgracefully & indefensibly cancelling  a Magen David Adom Ireland private fund raising event scheduled for May 11 at which the experiences of survivors of the Hamas massacre and of responders on October 7, over two years ago were to be narrated in their own words in a staged reading is truly disgraceful and shocking.   Engagement on the event commenced in November last, the date for the event was finalised in early February and since then the NCH have cancelled it, reinstated it and cancelled it again, each cancellation having a spurious basis.  In the end it seems that the NCH regards  it as wrong that the stories of the survivors and responders of October 7, 2023 be told in their own words . The events cancellation by the NCH can be properly described as an act of antisemitic censorship. What behind the scene lobbying or pressure, if any, impacted the decision is unknown.  There is an escalating global perception of Ireland as one of the most antisemitic countries in Europe. After years of denial the Taoiseach in January acknowledged the existence of a problem that uniquely impacts our Jewish community. Unfortunately , the decision of the NCH will add to that perception. I am deeply saddened that we have arrived at the position in Ireland where it is acceptable that our publicly funded National Concert Hall and its board stop the factual, undecorated narration on one of its stages of the worst Jewish tragedy since the Holocaust that also  impacted others, a tragedy involving murders, rapes and abductions and heroism of responders and rescuers. A private fund raising event for  an independent humanitarian organisation dedicated to life saving & emergency medical response connected to the Jewish community should not be a cause of difficulty or controversy. I am calling on the Board of the NCH to reinstate our event and for the resignation of those who saw fit to cancel it. The lack of insight and understanding is truly shocking.” Alan Shatter Chair MDA Ireland 12 April 2026 * Magen David Adom Ireland is an Irish registered charity that raises funds for Magen David Adom in Israel which is Israel’s national independent emergency medical response and ambulance service. It serves and has employees,  paramedics and ambulance drivers from every community across Israel. It is also a member of the international Red Cross/Red Crescent movement

In 2000, the world watched as Jamal al-Durrah tried to shield his 12 year old son, Muhammad, from Israeli occupation forces. Muhammad al-Durrah was killed that day, a child whose final moments, caught on camera, became one of the most searing images of the Second Intifada and of Palestinian history. For Palestinians, this is not just footage preserved in history. It is a wound carried across generations. We recognize Jamal’s outstretched arm because it is every parent’s instinct, to shield, to sacrifice, to stand between their child and harm. We remember Muhammad not as an image, but as a boy with a name, a family, and a future that was stolen. His killing was not something we merely saw; it was something we absorbed, something that settled into our collective memory and never left.

@WreckTheWoke @damonhtlive What does GTFO mean?

@damonhtlive Is the next post going to say that you're an even bigger pussy than what your post suggests you are? If you don't like America GTFO. You leaving voluntarily leaving would be a net positive. You having your citizenship stripped away would be a WE GOT HIM moment. Bitch.

Absolute champion. I love 'your' England!

@OBrienSheehan @thepainterflynn @maryharryheff Unfortunately it does. They could just argue that he lacks capacity, and while it appears on here he doesn't, by the time it takes to be proven it could be too late. Sign nothing, tell anyone who'll listen you want resuscitation and get an independent advocate asap.

@thepainterflynn @maryharryheff David you are being bullied. He is factually incorrect. Ignore it has no credibility without your consent.

I had decided to let the DNR matter rest until Monday to give my head a break but c12:15 a young doctor came to see me to push the idea, tales of people left as carrots , most people don't survive CPR he told me, he was relentless, eventually I told him I would like a witness

@Roryh96 @puntersg Didn't know he passed. He played a big part in my life. An absolute legend. RIP Danny. Ps great to see a picture of him as I ain't seen his face in over 30 years.

Amazing moment to send off the main man yesterday. He would’ve been delighted. 💚🍀

@rogan_brendan @SkyNews Nonsense. If you said 'what he puts his family through' or 'if he falls, think about those who have to scrape him off the deck'. Life is for living and for some living dangerously is living life to the full.

@SkyNews People like this who needlessly risk their lives is the biggest insult to all those terminally ill people who would have given anything to still see tomorrow 😔

Just ONE tweet to @AerLingus has resulted in these fake accs appearing, it's bad enough trying reach the real acc without these fuckers EVERY time!
