RT @eoinweldon: Tough one to take. Paudie was a man that left you with a smile on your face after every conversation with him.
He had an incredible warmth about him as well. You'd listen to games just for his commentary and he had an amazing turn of phrase. He'll be sorely missed
RIP Paudie 🙏

RT @Tsihanouskaya: Today there are at least 1,446 political prisoners in Belarus - during the past year, the number almost doubled. It includes 15 married couples & 70 persons sentenced to 10 yrs or more. It's a machine of terror & repression, built to break all those who dare to resist the regime.

Israel’s decision to revoke Palestinian FM's travel permit over their appeal to UN on occupied territories, is an attack on the United Nations itself.
The idea that Israeli government would deny Palestine the right to international justice is a new low. https://apnews.com/article/politics-israel-government-91ba538476380a16aad4e2cbdae2e235

Ireland should have more veterinarian training places.
There’s an urgent need to develop additional capacity. We are jeopardising, animal welfare, food safety standards and high quality certification of our food industry.

50 yrs ago a small independent country that was economically weak and still very reliant on its previous occupier, joined the then EEC.
While we have many challenges, by any yardstick we have been utterly transformed economically and socially.
