also thatβs why we voted for Connolly because we know she will hold the boys to account
we need to haul our politicians and policy makers over the coals
I know the subtle play of Ireland punches above its weight we canβt squander an opportunity to talk in the ear of the US presidency
but NO
also in the media thatβs annoyed me today:
the word PERIL in relation to shamrocks in the white house & our president give me a bucket
PERIL is used for grave situations that risk death not a cowtowed political game of oh Iβve no moral code just spin
you donβt have to agree with everything you hear but we do need to disrupt the consistence of types of spin in our ears
if you think you know or are informed then be so
this is for everyone else who might appreciate a different voice and context
do not @ me

βAs it slows down, the #GulfStream reaches a breaking point and suddenly jumps 219 km (136 miles) north in just two years. This shift occurred approximately 25 years before the #AMOC collapsed in the simulation, suggesting it could serve as a warning signal in the real world.β

One of the reasons we have high energy prices is our dispersed grid. One of the reasons we have poor rural public transport is our dispersed population. Leaking septic tanks, loneliness, land use difficulties, the list goes on.
One-off rural housing is a bad idea, and the real costs are socialised.
President Catherine Connolly has warned the catastrophic consequences of violating the UN Charter cannot be ignored.

This is what International Women's Day is for. Not 'Happy Women's Day'. It's not our birthday. It's a day to recognise those who fought, and who still needs fighting for.

It doesnβt matter whether the rate of global warming is increasing. Itβll never cease to amaze me that people donβt care that itβs happening at all. It should be the most alarming thing ever.
