@LaraMarlowe I could barely read your article as it’s so shocking but thank you for writing about it . It’s terrible that #gaza isn’t on front page of @businessposthq @thetimes or @SundayIndy today.

[Arete @aretearete3]

@McNamaraMEP What is Europe doing about the genocide in #Gaza @vonderleyen . If Europe does not condemn Israel and US then Europe is willing to stand by while innocent people are being starved to death . I am appalled at how little attention Gaza is being given .

[Arete @aretearete3]

@IrishTimes I agree with almost everything you’ve written but why no mention of how words ‘woman / female ‘ are no longer based on biology, as that’s eroding our rights . Please try understand why some feminists like me voted No instead of jumping to erroneous conclusions to fit argument.

@talktoBOI Your own chat on desktop has finally confirmed that You are having server issues your side .! Perhaps someone should change the status from ‘normal service ‘ on your website as it’s not working at the moment

[Arete @aretearete3]

@talktoBOI Hi BOI are you having issues with Business Online ? There’s nothing in the status update but I’m getting server error when I try to log in to do business banking online

[Arete @aretearete3]

@talktoBOI your chat has confirmed that you have issue your side . Can you update your status because it would save customers time ie we’d know there’s an issue your side . Would save phone calls etc

[Arete @aretearete3]

@talktoBOI Can you check to see if you have IT issue your side please ? I can’t get to speak to anyone but there’s no issue on your ‘status update ‘ but that is not unusual either

[Arete @aretearete3]

@talktoBOI hi is your system down as can’t bank online using Approve ?

[Arete @aretearete3]

@ebsgtranslation @PearlJam Just created a playlist of those suggestions! Saw in Dublin and they were brilliant but went by in a flash .

@freddiesayers It shows how undemocatic the FIrst past the post . We’ve a fairer system in ROI

@PatrickFreyne1 @griseldamb My father told me that when his mother died (1940s), his aunt told him that if he didn’t do the stations of the cross every Wed, his mother would not get into heaven.He was only 9 yrs old . Was it ignorance ? Blind fervour? Who knows. But glad those ‘unquestioning ‘ days are gone

[Arete @aretearete3]

@theAliceRoberts @NoisyMV You’ve lost me but am intrigued by your post . What do you mean by ‘pre-programmed’ pattern ie if I saw I’d assume that anyone wearing & waving their hands up - it’s picked up by camera ?

@Natasha_Walter True . Last year full of bees . Birds also seem scarce

[Arete @aretearete3]

@DmytroKrasun I guess it depends on where these are located . Some might be near thriving manufacturing industries & people commute. Some though do get cut off during winter (snow etc ) if very high up .

[Arete @aretearete3]

@MaryMcAuliffe4 @shanesmccormack According to Irish Times , on same day this judge gave a suspended sentence to young man who beat up a homeless man who begged them to stop beating him . I’m confused. If the outrage is regarding violence to vulnerable people, why no protests about this?

[Arete @aretearete3]

@brianoreillyit @DavidMcredmond Agree . We’d business issue post Brexit with Returns / customs etc and was getting nowhere / caught in the middle . I highlighted here to @DavidMcredmond & he replied to me seeking details . The system now works for us so 🙏. He gets things done .

@mamboitaliano__ @ZArteest1010 I really like Ghemme & Gattinara (Piedmont) & of course Chianti …. It’s only Wednesday though so too early in week 🍷 🤔😊

@TomClonan @StMichaelsHouse @OireachtasNews @DownSyndromeIRL @InclusionIre Adult Day Services finish at 3pm. HSE stopped funding or providing transport to / from so 1.5 to 2 hrs daily spent during potential ‘working time ‘ driving. My ability to earn severely curtailed & yet still miserly means testing carers allowance @MichealMartinTD @SimonHarrisTD

@CovidHse @NEJM Thank you so much for explaining that
