Maybe not quite true to say there has been no Oxford Book of 20th Century etc since Larkin’s, given publication of this in 2001.

A care worker was asked by @BBCNewsbeat earlier whether she will be buying one of the new CARE badges, she said “No, they are being sold for £8.99 and my wage is only £8.75 an hour”

Says it all..

My boyfriend is a paramedic. He’s just been told to self-isolate for 14 days due to housemate having symptoms. This is a house of FOUR paramedics who are now all out of action for 14 days. We NEED testing for NHS staff Now! #covid19UK

I'm not a "Come out ye Black & Tans" fan, except when Alan Partridge sings it.
But I'm grimly aware today that many who are upset by that song expressed no anger whatever about homeless children eating off pavements.

Kevin "Boxer" Moran, is no longer a Minister of State for the OPW, he will not be coming to #Cork to incarcerate our river in concrete

This is an opportunity for the new Gov to make good and look at how Cork's environment can be protected, in a more economical & sustainable way.

When Cork decides to build the #CorkTidalBarrier flood warnings from tidal flooding will become a thing of the past

"Are you going to deliver the barrier?" is the question all Cork Gen Election Candidates need to be asked

Building the barrier NOW protects more of #Cork for less

I'd love to hear people's experience of door-knocking and campaigning so far. What attitudes have you been encountering a lot of? What questions have you got better at answering? What has gone down well? What mistakes have you learned from? #VoteLabour #VoteLabour2019

Investing in our public services is not "free stuff". It ensures that we have the best healthcare, the best education and the most skilled workforce.

And how will we pay for it? By ending the actual giveaways Tories have been handing their billionaire friends.

"Save Cork City promote an approach for historic Cork that references the material quality and close relationship to the water demonstrated by cities like Amsterdam, Bruges or Copenhagen"

Wow.

New Lower Glamire Road "cycle lane"

17 Flood warnings in last 2 yrs (all tidal). No properties flooded but no active temporary protection measures implemented by City Council on any occasion - same Council expected to maintain hundreds of pumps, thousands of non-return valves and kilometers of demountable defences

[Save Cork City @savecorkcity]

Gareth Shiels, Master Stone Mason, Blackpool: The OPW Drainage Dept. should be let nowhere near the #HistoricQuays of Cork. They don’t know what they are doing, you just have to look at how they handled the heritage in Clonakilty, Skibereen and Bandon to see that."

Only if it’s left go unpainted for so long that it becomes an eyesore, but I do see how that could easily happen. @CorkEventCentre
