@RealEddieHobbs How can you get to your age with your amount of broadcasting experience and still read out a statement like a captured pilot?

Did Sinn Féin mishandle COVID early on? @naomi_long reflects on how the Northern Ireland Assembly and Sinn Féin reacted to the early stages of the pandemic, and how that soured relationships within the Executive.

Qatar’s Prime Minister: This war needs to stop immediately. The aggression needs to stop immediately. Because everyone knows who the main beneficiary of this war is, and dragging the whole region into this conflict is.

@IrishTimesOpEd The Irish Times has a columnist who thinks this is what a British diplomat sounds like. This got past an adult. Possibly several.

@DrWHKitchen I am Bogartian in the shame my behaviour causes me. One thing, though. You seem to think you're due deference on here. But Twitter's not a classroom. It's a political/social bouncy castle and you're boinging like the rest of us. If you want 'Yes, sir' you're in the wrong place.

@squinteratn You're an incredibly arrogant person, and someone who doesn't tend to engage in good faith discussion. I hope you get some enjoyment from it, at least.

There are currently 205 enrollments in Irish Language courses in total at QUB. By contrast, approx. 1700 of 3500 international students at QUB are Chinese. What is the purpose of a sign? Are the 205 students currently wandering around, lost, unable to find their classes?
Matthew Shanks@matthew_shanks1

Very, very true. I have been speaking out on this issue at Queen’s because I feel passionately that students from a PUL background should not be subjected to such marginalisation. I will continue to lead these efforts in the coming days to maximise the ‘no’ vote.

Dear Twitter, I started my career off as a movie reviewer and I still love my movies. 99.9% of the endless tweets I see on here telling me how So and So brilliantly improvised a famous scene are bullshit. Thank you.

Sports fans: Darts from Dublin tonight. Is it still a double 20 to start a leg in Ireland? Or has that been scrubbed?

@DrWHKitchen I didn't set the agenda, Doc. You're the one who's keen to talk about language. And I can't help it if you need a little help now and then with your own. Think of it as a learning moment.

@squinteratn Oh goodness, that's a new low. If the additional 'l' gives you a victory which makes you feel powerful, enjoy it. In fact, I'm glad I made the error to let you have your moment. Absolutely pathetic.

Germany withdrawing its support for Israel in the South Africa ICJ genocide case is a jawdropping example of what Israel has managed to achieve in the past 26 months. Germany is Israel's most loyal ally for reasons of historical guilt and shame. Losing them is era-defining.

Israeli settlers have increasingly used violence against Palestinians in a bid to drive them from their homes in the occupied West Bank. But sexual assault appears to be a new weapon in these settlers’ arsenal of intimidation, pointing to a troubling new level of violence. cnn.it/4du8vj6

Department for Communities words for 'Northern Ireland' as the 250 celebrations continue: Here. This place. These shores. Our home. Ulster. The Province. The north of Ireland. I want to thank Minister Gordon Lyons for the last one in particular. See? It is okay to use it.

The Irish republican cause is so stagnant it's clinging to Trump's obvious off-the-cuff "mergers" joke from St Patrick's Day. Desperate grasping from a failing ideology. Northern Ireland's future is by consent here, not a bit of banter at the White House.
