@HSELive @EricByrne_Radio This system is NOT working. I'm 54yo with TWO conditions, one being cancer (24 months). Was with GP Thursday, he admits I'm High Risk but the practice has OPTED OUT of under 70 vaccination. They know nothing of any referral system, only offering a letter of my health conditions?!

WATCH: This year has been a tough year for everyone. But one of the enduring highs of this year has been how our friends, family, and the public helped us to do our job by following the advice of our public health teams. For this we are truly grateful. Happy Christmas. #StaySafe

[Sir Ken Robinson @SirKenRobinson]

It is with heavy hearts that we announce Sir Ken Robinson died peacefully yesterday, 21st August 2020, surrounded by family after a short battle with cancer.

We will be following up with a further update as we begin to follow Sir Ken’s wishes and honour his legacy.

@EmmettOBrienIND @NoelRock Idiot response!

@barry_macneill @EyeOnDublin This is not a debate between conservation, restoration or contemporary interpretation... that’s a horror show and vandalism to the fabric of the local built environment!!

[Colin @colin_deevy]

A tragic truth that could have been avoided

[Colin @colin_deevy]

We need to celebrate the valiant efforts of our healthcare workers and emergency service personnel like our Spanish counterparts, and protect them from the societally irresponsible behavior displayed in @SimonHarrisTD recent tweet!!!

[Colin @colin_deevy]

@SimonHarrisTD Please bring in an urgent emergency statutory instrument to close all public houses, entertainment venues and BAN HOUSE PARTIES before Tuesday next, or we’ll be facing a catastrophe!!!

[Colin @colin_deevy]

It’s a moment of deep national gratitude & immense pride in the bravery & valor for our hard working HSE staff who face into a period of unprecedented times, & the way our national community (at home & our diaspora abroad) dispense personal self interest in the service of others!

[Paddy Mallon @HIVTox]

Got this email from one of our old junior doctors last night. These guys are amazing - will fly half way around the world to help out. So proud of our NCHDs - even the diaspora is stepping up and willing to help. Email [email protected] #COVID19ireland #COVID19 @IDSIreland @HSELive

I heard people were already knocking on doors for the Irish election next month so I made a quick list of issues to keep by the door to remind me to speak up because I always freeze and panic when anyone knocks on our door.

A great presenter, political and social commentator and her voice of reason and empathy will be sadly missed

One of the wonderful traditions of The Liberties lives on, as each 31st December is marked by the repainting of the dates over Saint James Gate, so Dublin 8 can yet again wake up to a fresh New Year, and more hopeful new decade... may 2020 be good to one and all!

[Colin @colin_deevy]

@JackLaugher BRILLIANT!!! 🤣

[Colin @colin_deevy]

When TUD moves to Grangegorman, with Dublin 8 Liberties having only 7.8% HEA student enrollment, why will the area have 58% of Cities new mass-development/micro-unit PBSA, charging double market rate to transient international learners & tourists; making up 20% D8 population?🤔

@drdavidbull @brexitparty_uk Why in God’s name did you run for election to the EU parliament if all you can contribute is whinging about attendance; and have you ever considered the treck northern Scottish parliamentarians make to attend Westminster?

Delighted to have met Minister @mitchelloconnor with members of Design Educators Ireland #DEI @itsligo yesterday following launch of #YADA the new #YeatesAcademy for Arts, Design & Architecture which will drive creative industries in the West

Global population pyramid in 1950, 2018 and 2100. Our species is growing and aging while getting healthier and wealthier. In 2100 population is likely to have already peaked. The chart is from an excellent @MaxCRoser presentation at the @UN. Link: https://t.co/0HGhZ1tCYf
