All tweets are my own lifes view. Opinions are like assholes, everyones got one.
@SeanCarr26@chrisgunter79@DLynchSport he flicked it over quaid and got taken out but there were 2 limerick defenders there. He wasn't in possession so it cant be a black card and the ref had blown the whistle before it went into the net so a goal couldn't of been given so says commentary. Rules should be changed do.
Strange that an ethnic/aboriginal Irish person has to live for 10 years (if not fluent in Irish) or 5 years (if fully fluent in Irish) in an area designated as a Gaeltacht before they can legally build a house there.
Yet someone with no ethnic connection to Ireland only has to live here for 5 years before getting citizenship.

Today is first day of Ireland’s EU Presidency
Its going to cost the Irish taxpayer over €300m.
Thats 3x the amount Cyprus just spent, €95m
and 4x what Denmark spent, €80m.
Most of the money is going to:
Gardaí & security €125m
Dept of Foreign Affairs €65m
OPW will get €51m.
But what are they spending it on???
This E-Tender shows €131,000 will be spent on woollen scarf mementos for the 4,500 EU delegates.
6 months of waste & pageantry lie ahead.
This is the same town where, last summer, magrebis went around attacking the elderly, leaving one old man battered to a pulp. When the locals formed street patrols, the media descended upon the town and called them racist fascist nazis.
Here's one way to deal with media you disagree with: dismiss them as "far right" and evade their questions as a some sort of "principled" position. But this is not just an avoidance of the questions of one media organ: it is also a disengagement from the chunk of the electorate that they represent. That strategy of political evasion and contempt has only served to discredit and weaken the left and left-centre in Europe. This sort of refusal to engage, on the part of elected politicians, is also rather questionable from the perspective of the ethos of a modern democratic society.
"I killed a boy... At the time I would think about it a lot. Now we just laugh about it", says this smirking IDF terrorist.
No matter how much you hate these Israeli Nazis, it can never be enough.
🚨 BREAKING: Al Jazeera confirms Israel bombed a Lebanese hospital for the THIRD time. The ICU is completely destroyed.
A mother desperately rushed to find her premature baby alive amidst the rubble. Washington is fully complicit in these war crimes!
Nie mogę przestać tego oglądać 😅
Koreański influencer przyleciał do Francji, aby zrobić strima i zadać kłam prawackim mitom, że niby francuskie miasta są niebezpieczne z powodu obecności w nich afrykańskich imigrantów.
Ledwo co wysiadł z taryfy i od razu został zaatakowany przez grupę murzynów. Przeszedł dosłownie kilkaset metrów. Dostał lepe na ryj, stracił buta i ukradli mu statyw.
"Nie, proszę, proszę, nie róbcie tego! Proszę, nie!"
I to wszystko w środku dnia na otwartej ulicy.
Israel destroyed the statue of Jesus Christ in the Christian village of Debel, South Lebanon.
Now they’re bulldozing the solar panels that provide electricity and water.
Not military targets.
Critical infrastructure.
This is the deliberate targeting of civilian life.
The protests in Ireland are not about just fuel! They are about the distance between Ireland on this graph and every other modern and developed economy. Ireland is second wealthiest but gets waaaaay less than any other country for that wealth. By a golden mile.
That visual gap in this graph? That’s what people are protesting. It’s a lack of infrastructure and the everyday enshittification of services, the economy, and the additional difficulty of trying to live, relative to peers in any other country. It also highlights why people don’t get uniformly listened to! - because there is no government architecture to engage meaningfully across this huge gap.
That gap is a three hour drive to work in traffic, a 14 month wait for an MRI, buses that don’t arrive, trains that don’t exist, schools that have no places for your kids, houses that are unaffordable, pubs that close before midnight, €12 sandwiches, expensive fuel.
People feel this gap, even if they can’t explain it precisely. And that builds into resentment, and ultimately protest. Fuel just happened to be the next thing that could be pointed to, today.
