A refugee has never questioned my Irish identity. Nor have they called me a northern bastard and that I’m not Irish. Been called that in the capital many a time
Such sad news out of Donegal today following the death of James McHugh. All Ireland winner and All Star he was a super player. But now thoughts and prayers with his family. RIP. @donegalgaa
Guys you couldn’t make this up facks!
The Zi¤nist extrem!st Baruch Marzel, a settler leader, posts a photo of himself burning the Spanish flag while wearing an Argentina national team jersey.
Spain are into the World Cup final and their teenage superstar is showing the world exactly wat drives him ⚽
Lamine Yamal, who turned 19 the day before the semi-final, was at the heart of Spain's 2-0 win over France, winning the penalty that sent them through to Sunday's final.
He's been one of the faces of the whole tournament, but ask him wat actually matters, and it isn't the goals.
"I came from an apartment where the kitchen and bedroom were in the same place," Yamal said. "So I see my mother happy, I see that my brother can have the kind of childhood I would have wanted, and that's what makes me happiest."
Yamal's grandmother came to Spain from Morocco with next to nothing and worked several jobs to build a future for the family.
From that tiny flat to a World Cup final at 19, everything he's chasing now comes back to the people he grew up with.
Yamal is especially devoted to his little brother, Keyne, who's become a fan favourite celebrating from the stands.
"My little brother means everything to me," Yamal has said. "It feels like he is my son."
One of the best players on the planet, and wat he's proudest of is seeing his family smile ❤️

@emilyhewertson Sorry to break it to you with that deep entrenched backward colonial mindset. Malvinas is Argentina 🇦🇷 and the six counties in Ireland are on there way to unification with the rest of the country.
Spain is very clear about Gibraltar. Argentina is just as clear about Las Malvinas. What do get in Ireland? Too many people afraid to call a spade, a spade. Say it out loud: England get out of Ireland.
5 ways to cope after England defeat
1 join a Loyalist amateur marching band
2 burn a bus
3 burn your NHS neighbours house out
4 pretend you have a Kulture
5 follow a guy on a blue bin

England fans: Spend 60 years chanting about German bombers and the IRA
Also England fans: Have a total meltdown because someone wrote ‘Malvinas’ on a bedsheet with a Sharpie
All of you hating on Argentina, we Irish understand you & empathise with you. But let us do our fucking thing tonight, yeah? Hating England is our national pastime. The Argentinians never stole our land and starved us to death. Vamos, vamos, Argentina!
🔴The Birmingham Six is one of the greatest miscarriages of justice in British legal history.
Following the horrific 1974 Birmingham pub bombings, six Irish men were arrested, convicted, and sentenced to life imprisonment. They would spend 16 years behind bars before their convictions were finally overturned.
One of the most disturbing aspects of the case was the handling of forensic evidence.
At the time, scientific tests indicated that the men had not handled explosives. Rather than helping the defence, this crucial evidence was withheld. Instead, unreliable forensic testimony was presented in court, contributing to convictions that would later be ruled unsafe.
The case also exposed allegations of coerced confessions, fabricated police evidence, and serious failures within the criminal justice system.
The eventual release of the Birmingham Six in 1991 forced a major re-examination of police practices and remains a powerful reminder of why transparency, proper disclosure of evidence, and fair trials are essential.
Do you think enough has been done to prevent a miscarriage of justice like this from happening again?
