@SweeneySteve Is the world waking up yet? How are there still people (nations) supporting this terrorism

Today I$rael tried to kill me in a targeted airstrike in southern Lebanon as I was reporting on was the targeting of bridges and the forced displacement of 1 million people, an ethnic cleansing operation on a larger scale than the Nakba I have absolutely no doubt that this was deliberate. Despite claims there were no warnings ahead of the strike and no notifications sent to the Lebanese Army who allowed us to film As we have seen in Gaza they want to silence journalists who document and report their war crimes It is the western powers who provide political and military support for I$rael, arming it to the teeth to carry out genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing here in Lebanon. They are not simply complicit, but active participants and should be held accountable for their actions. But if I$rael thinks today’s strike will silence us and keep us out of the field they are very, very mistaken

@DavQuinn I'm Catholic by birth, chosen for me by my parents. I don't bless myself. Is Michael Martin a practising Catholic? Why is he expected to bless himself?

Fancy that Martin couldn't even manage to bless himself.

@TobiasR96594571 @RudiKinsella is he though? Troy Parrott and Seamus Coleman dug his out of a hole the last couple of games. Prior to that there was nothing good. I'm more than happy to eat my words though if we qualify. I'm just not convinced.

@RudiKinsella Because win or lose next week, he's the best man for the job.

Why in the name of god would you not wait a week before doing this?

@TheDon66666 the government are the gougers. taking 60% to 65% of every litre of fuel in taxes. reduce taxes....problem solved. I dont think a forecourt making 8c in gross margin per litre is gouging

Lads and lasses,when buying diesel or petrol, do you not buy anything else. These gouging bastards are profiteering from the war.

@SkyNews @joncraig Did these same six countries also issue a statement condemning the sinking of the unarmed Iranian Navy ship IRIS Dena in international waters by the US just a few weeks ago? Or is the 'rules-based order' only applied when commercial interests are at stake?

BREAKING: A joint statement has been released by the UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan condemning "recent attacks by Iran on unarmed commercial vessels in the Gulf". Sky's @JonCraig reports ⬇️ Read more 🔗 trib.al/Dj53j28 📺 Sky 501 and Virgin 602

@caulmick @SimonHarrisTD read the room @SimonHarrisTD. This is going to be a red line issue for many many people. Happy to squander money on say 100+ electric buses that cant be charged at a cost of €80m+ but not to implement real change that could positively affect the lives of millions of people

Unreal - How Out of Touch can #FFG get!? We're coming into Summer - @SimonHarrisTD answer to extortionate energy prices 😔 #Dail #LQs

@thejournal_ie WTF is wrong with people? lack of or full bins is no excuse. hold on to the rubbish until you get to a bin

Over 450 staff collected more than 40 tonnes of waste from Dublin city centre during and after the St Patrick’s Festival, according to Dublin City Council. These before and after shots from Drury Street show the scale of the clean-up.

@FurkanGozukara if its true that the talks were going well then there should have been no reason for the US to bomb Iran (i dont believe they had to right to regardless of talks or not). So I have to assume that someone was compromised.

BOMBSHELL: Iran offered to give away ALL of its enriched uranium during peace talks in Geneva. The British thought it was a credible offer. Hours later, Trump started bombing Iran anyway. The US didn't want peace, they wanted war.

@JackOc998 @seidodge i assume their clubs can block as its not an official international window. I'm still confused as to the point of this match if most players are 'unavailable' for selection

@seidodge LOI players will 100% leave if offered be stuoid not to

“The camp will play a crucial part of our long-term planning” Interesting to see who’s called as it’s not an international window and in the midst of the play offs in England.

@thejournal_ie Is it true that we’re paying approx 37c a unit for elec while data centres get it for 19c? If so, we’re basically subsidising the massive grid upgrades they need while they swallow 30% of our power.

The Irish government is prioritising the growth of data centres in Ireland, Taoiseach Micheál Martin told a group of business leaders in Washington DC this week jrnl.ie/6987805

@thejournal_ie Hard for the gov to say no when Big Tech pays half the country's tax bills, but we’re basically becoming a giant battery for Silicon Valley. Hard to see how we hit any climate targets when these things are set to swallow 30% of our electricity in the near future. Is it worth it?

@irishexaminer just to add, i have provided feedback both to the school and the lunch provider about the standards and quality. some of the meals are nice/fine, others are not appealling at all. edible, but not appealling.

@irishexaminer ive seen the standards slip since its inception into my kids school.But she's not a fussy eater thankfully. might seem controversial these days but my kids have to eat what we give them.we cook one main meal a day and thats what they eat. i think thats why they arent picky eaters

Over half of parents plan to leave hot school meals scheme as children don't enjoy food options irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4181…

@IrelandToGlory @IrelandFootball Ok. Thanks. Seems a bit random!

@endacazz @IrelandFootball It will include players, whos season finishes early! Mostly EFL players

@SeanOCSport @McDonnellDan If Drogheda fans support Joanne, they should ALL boycott their next home game against Bohs

🚨Latest: Joanna Byrne says she will not be resigning as a Drogheda director and co-chair even though a statement from the club’s American owners Trivela confirmed they have asked the Sinn Féin TD to stand down from her position Piece with @McDonnellDan independent.ie/sport/soccer/l…

@BarryAndrewsMEP @vonderleyen @fiannafailparty @RenewEurope It seems the intent is to flatten Lebanon just like Gaza, yet the world won't act. With the US shielding them at the UN and EU gridlock preventing trade bans, the system is rigged for inaction. At what point do we admit that money and power matter more than people's lives?

✈️ Just landed back in #Brussels after seeing situation on ground in #Beirut. 🇮🇱 Israel are now collapsing residential buildings in central #Beirut, a city of over 2m people. This is the Gaza playbook. Again, @vonderleyen is silent.

@PatHerbert2 @dan7heman @Susan9122656826 @CadburyUK There's a very clear difference in taste. The only exception seems to be the skinny dairy milk, possibly called Little dairy milk which are close to how it should taste. I didn't check but I assume the ingredients for it are different to the normal sized bars.

@dan7heman @Susan9122656826 @CadburyUK I can’t taste any difference. I still think it’s the best chocolate in the world.

I’m sorry @CadburyUK but your chocolate is now horrid. Palm oil makes the taste and texture all wrong. Profiteering above all else has ruined the most famous product from my city. Should never have sold out to out to Craft. #chocolate #cadbury

@dlLambo I agree with you on many things but this is a nonsense. There is a deep connection between DFB and NYC and Boston FD. Many many Irish. With visiting firefighters this was showing respect to them, not their overlord.

Phibsboro Fire station today with a US Flag flying. DFB are an exceptional institution, but flying this flag as they lay siege on Cuba, arm a genocide in Gaza, illegally attack Iran & round up thousands each week by the colour of their skin in the US is awful. Why do we do it?

@anfearmor11 @DavQuinn The visit to the white house is and always has been about the 30m Irish vote. You're right about the consequences, but for the sitting party

@DavQuinn That would suit the narrative for many on the left. They ignore the consequences of any stand they make for any cause. Especially the consequences for the rest of the country.

The annual visit to the White House is meant to be a light-hearted affair. If we decide to lecture all presidents we dislike (always Republicans), they would simply cancel the event. We would lose the unrivalled annual access.
