As Trump further embraces his Mad King era, I'm looking at Europe's leaders - Starmer, Sweden's Kristersson, Ireland's Martin - and wondering if there has ever been a bigger collection of spineless, witless, more cowardly bootlickers.
This is going to get a lot worse before it gets better.
Government defends removing targets from housing plan Photo of panel at launch
Housing targets “a distraction.”
From what, they do not say.
Now seen to be pathetic at best, cynical at worst.
All of the colours are black.

Tragic! RIP Diogo!! 😥😢
There are literally more consequences for calling for the death of the IDF than there are for the IDF exterminating human beings on a mass scale
Criticizing an actual genocide is terrorism but this is "culture".

I'm guessing they're rolling Brennan out as the respectable face of contrarianism so those who don't like what Israel is doing but don't want to risk anything can feel good about themselves. His war crimes are in the past, so the Irish Times set can forgive him. He's Irish, too, isn't that cool?
