“I was asked where I would rate this War on a scale from 1-10. I said about a 15.”
I don’t think any Trump quote sums up the man or this fever-dream-like reality we now live in, quite like that one.
Sinn Féin now have a Bluesky account. @sinn-fein.bsky.social
Appalling failure of children with scoliosis and spina bifida a shameful indictment of successive governments – Mary Lou McDonald
"Parents and advocacy groups now have real concerns about government backsliding on its commitments, again."

I was born in an Iranian prison. My parents were held in their jails. My uncles lie in their mass graves. Nothing you can tell me about the crimes of the Iranian regime that I haven't lived in blood and bone. That doesn't mean I want my people bombed, maimed, killed, their homes in ruins. If your vision of liberation comes only through the destruction of innocent lives, then it's not freedom you're after. Sahar Delijani, Iranian author
I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds.
I support neither imperialism or dictatorship.
Sahar Delijani said it best:
There is only one nuclear armed state in the Middle East. It is Israel.
rough day for anyone who believes in the sanctity of human life
This feels seismic.
Furthermore, Lola and other famous Westie artists aren’t proof to the contrary of what she is saying. Rather, I have argued that the tradition of artistry within the community has been born out of this discrimination and specifically the exclusion from traditional employment.

Some responses to that Lola Petticrew speech 😡. The burning of Bombay street, Internment, Ballymurphy, housing and employment discrimination, repressing of culture and religion, policing bias, state collusion. Do people really believe the impact of this was negated within a generation?
Why was Bela Tarr not in the In Memoriam sequence in the Baftas tonight?
Great to have this data Peter 😆
The wrong Christy
Yeah. You’ve got the wrong Christy there, lads.
Well done to everyone involved in this including our own Irish Sport for Palestine.
The Tánaiste saying at Leaders that he doesn’t like where things are going where there is pressure on individual footballers to not play in the Israel games. 1. I haven’t seen that. 2. If it happens, that’s entirely on your government. Players should not be put in that position.
Richie Sadlier and Alan Cawley missing the point entirely on RTÉ. Since when is a Chairperson being critical of the FAI and UEFA a sackable offence? The dogs in the street know that this is because of Deputy Joanna Byrne’s stance on Israel.
Sinn Féin TD Joanna Byrne says the board of Drogheda United has asked her to resign as chair of the club, after she said Ireland should not fulfil its Nations League fixtures with Israel
You really don’t.
Homer’s Enemy (The Frank Grimes one).
A petition calling for a public inquiry into pro-Israeli influence in Britain has reached over 50,000 signatures.

Anyone remember this from the late 80s early 90s?
The people of Free Derry continuing to influence those standing up in the face of authoritarian state brutality.
Drawn against Israel in the nations league. Well that can’t happen.
just billionaire Sir Jim Ratcliffe throwing out some serious made-up numbers on TV
Next Starmer Trump meeting.
Starmer: They’re making me resign because I hired someone named in the Epstein files.
Trump: I’ve been named in the Epstein files thousands of times.
No. Just making the point it’s not smart to go where he wants them to go.
Was the Obama video racist?
The truth is nobody outside Bluesky cares that much. Dems should know by now this isn’t the ground to be battling Trump on, especially now. They shouldn’t walk straight into the trap again.
A lot of comments about the significance of Republicans having officially lost the wrestling demographic.
In truth, that wrestling demographic is far from what it used to be.
President Catherine Connolly will meet relatives of the Bloody Sunday families in private during the second day of her official visit to Northern Ireland.
Wokery becoming defined as the exclusive preserve of the left.
Meanwhile, the right …
