A boy plays football inside a church property-turned shelter for displaced people in Beirut yesterday. More than 500,000 people are now displaced by war across Lebanon, according to authorities. Almost 400 have been killed, including 83 children. Report soon, @IrishTimesWorld

@malodoherty Easy on Mal. Apparently I didn't experience fear or hatred. It seems to be a sacred cow of some kind or other

When I visited my grandparents in Springmartin West Belfast in the late 70s, 80s and even early 90s we were told to lie or duck down in the back of the car as we drove through Republican controlled areas incase the IRA "got us". Our crime was being Protestants driving to see our family. Thankfully the Belfast Agreement came, the principle of consent was established and the surrender of those committed to violence was won. I'm glad Lola didn't have to grow up with what my family and I did.

@RobbieButlerMLA I think, in the light of that fact, we can forgive our Protestant neighbours for seeming a tad over sensitive. After all, how many of us, back then, would have dandered blithely up the Shankill?

@RobbieButlerMLA The IR A did on rare occasions set up roadblocks and fired on - and killed - those who drove through them.

@krishgm Perhaps celebrating a film which sought to empathise with Tourette they thought that would have been inappropriate.

There is no explanation I can think of for the BBC’s failure to edit out the involuntary racist language at last night’s BAFTA’s - which perhaps explains why there has been no explanation.

The thing Keir Starmer cannot say: "Of course I knew the man had sinister secret ties to Jeffrey Epstein. That's why I chose him. The job was to protect Britain from the madness of President Caligula. Epstein connections are a bona fide job qualification for that mission."

So many people are named after celebrities these days. Our parents never did that. If they did, we’d know at least one Sigourney.

Mourning Mark Tully, probably the greatest radio journalist of his generation who took India to the world & who gave the BBC the credibility it once had in India. Of his many books No Full Stops in India was brilliant in predicting what India would become RIP

Coat from Donegal, scarf from Kashmir, hat from Montreal (apologies to the raccoon). Now I’m ready for the arctic wind.
