Ireland’s national anthem Amhrán na bhFiann, A soldiers song, is 100 years old this year

But Irish independence came in 1922, 4 years earlier?

For 4 years it was ‘Let Erin remember’ by Thomas Moore

Here’s the banger we could have had!

This was one of the most skilled and beautiful goals this tournament and it got cancelled. Corruption really ruins everything.

‼️ Listen to BBC Today:

Q: “What is your appeal going to be to the people of Clacton?”

Count Binface: “Well… I’m not Nigel Farage.”

😂

Farage called this by-election to dominate the headlines. Instead, he’s handed @CountBinface a national platform.

Back in 1991, James Brown called Eddie Murphy to the stage mid show to test if he could actually imitate him, and seconds later Eddie delivered one of the most absurd impressions of his career. Takes serious guts to imitate James Brown right in front of him 😭

Richard Burgon just exposed the most glaring double standard in British policy

"Imagine if this weekend in London there was a Russian real estate event selling Ukrainian land. The government would ban it immediately.

Instead, we have an Israeli real estate event openly advertising the illegal sale of land in occupied Palestinian territories. The government recognizes Palestine. Why isn't this banned?"

One of the most horrifying scenes in human history has been revealed.

When Israel forced thousands in Gaza to collect flour mixed with sand due to severe famine.

A moment the world must never forget.

Sad to hear Anthony Head has passed away.
The Gold Blend “will they, won’t they” ad campaign was a cultural phenomenon, an ongoing saga that lasted for 6 years, captivating audiences of 30 million. The inevitable kiss even made front page news. A landmark TV moment.
RIP Anthony

If you want Baroness Michelle Mone removed from the House of Lords and to repay the £136,000,000 owed to taxpayers, please RT!

“When is the British government going to impose sanctions on Israel for its endless violations of international law?”

Retweet if you agree with Corbyn

Bobby Ewing’s infamous return to Dallas, 40 years ago today, is a masterclass in TV secrecy. They shot it without telling CBS execs, fed the press fake storylines, smuggled Patrick Duffy onto set under a blanket, then added the scene less than an hour before the show aired

It’s been 49 years since Doug Mountjoy played the greatest break-off in snooker history 😂

Does anyone know Liam McLoughlin from Belfast? I sent him £210 for 3 x Liverpool tickets which never materialised, I’ve since been told he’s ripped a lot of people off and owes thousands. Steer clear! Just putting it out there so people are aware. Calls himself “king daddy” 😂

Charlotte Church sang From the River to the Sea at a fundraising event for Palestinians and now all the usual people are screaming antisemitism and trying to cancel her.

RT if you stand with Charlotte Church and Palestine.

Sky News wondering why, so quickly after the gun attack at the White House Correspondents Dinner, there was a press conference:

Trevor Philips, "That's quite a remarkable thing. There's mayhem but the Trump White House machine didn't pause, hardly drew breath, before organising the press conference"

Sky News's James Matthews, "Yeah, fascinating isn't it"
