Clarification: Sky News was not at the property at 7.41am. As has already been acknowledged, and as shown in the footage from 10.19am, Sky News was outside a property where Mr Farage was registered to vote at the last election. Sky News did not interact with Mr Farage’s daughter.
On a single occasion, we approached the property without a camera operator, identified ourselves as Sky News, and the adult occupant chose not to engage. We were seeking to contact Mr Farage to ask questions about the gift he accepted from Mr Cottrell. This is a well-established and routine journalistic practice when reporting on matters of legitimate public interest.
The footage clearly demonstrates that Sky News did not “hound” or pursue Mr Farage’s daughter. At no stage did we seek to speak to anyone other than Mr Farage in connection with this story.

@donwinslow This is someone Irish, or at least pretending to be. The handle is the Irish word for ladybird. The French is nonsense, as far as I can tell. Police in Ireland take such matters quite seriously, should you wish to report.
Decent write-up of The Cartel, the book on the Kinahans I wrote a few years back with Stephen Breen, in the latest edition of The New Yorker.

@afneil@ALucieSmith While de Valera visited the ambassador, he did not go to the embassy, and there was no book of condolences, signed or otherwise: https://t.co/5JmJNhAZpe The episode is discomforting enough without journalists and clergy perpetrating lazy falsehoods.
Or... how about... policing Dublin city centre around the clock with visible street patrols like you would see in every other EU capital city... why do policymakers find it so hard to understand the deterrence need and reassurance value of this completely standard approach?

"Growing up in Rotherham, our childhood games would revolve around the FA Cup, my companions yelping with joy when they scored the winner as Ian Rush or Mark Hughes. I, however, had eyes only for the King Fahd Memorial Trophy."
The difference in quality in this game from earlier is night and day. Because they're actually kicking the ball. Long past time for a consecutive handpass ban.
