@Arightside The filling of a vacancy on the US Supreme Court (when Anton Scalia died) should have been a process that rose above politics. Instead, McConnell told blatant lies to justify delaying the confirmation until there was a Republican in the WH.

@usopengolf can you please please fix your Android app? Up to 16:30 EDT it was showing Wyndham Clark’s status as teeing off 45 minutes earlier while the PGA Tour app was telling me he had completed the first two holes. Your app finally crashed and showed me the correct data.

@caulmick Hey Mick - did you call for a 'leadership heave' after SF's poor showing in the Dublin Central by-election?

@DraperMP @jeremymbarr @CGasparino Are you playing the gender card i.e. implicitly defending her because she is a woman? It certainly sounds like it.

@barrabest @Lattaballix @MickKennedy76 @UTVNews Think you meant the summer solstice Barra.

@griptmedia The tallies today give him 9.5% and he will pick up very few transfers. In 2024, he got less than 600 transfers in counts 2 to 6 before he was eliminated with barely one third of the quota. How on earth do you project he will win a seat in the next GE?

@Deadswan65 @RepThomasMassie But, in the privacy of the voting booth, the same upstanding Republicans will vote him out.

@AontuDublin Yet another Aontú unfunded tax cut - Liz Truss economics. Eliminate the M50 toll and cut VAT on housing, who will pay for these giveaways?

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@TIITraffic It took you a while to report this - is the N11 still closed at the Loughlinstown roundabout?

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@eoinyk They took the lowest rate they found on the web and found one of the cowboys. Full third party and some level of comprehensive cover is included anywhere you rent a car in Europe.

@dublinbusnews @TFIupdates That link doesn't work. And the 'news' section of the DB website isn't properly sorted by date, can you fix that please. And add this item. Because I cant' find the details of those diversions.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@griptmedia And, as with all Aontú gimmicks (eliminate the M50 toll etc.), they fail to say which service will be cut or which other tax will rise to pay for their promises. This is Liz Truss economics - unfunded tax cuts.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@BoyneNews So now he's an economic commentator, as well as a tax-dodger!

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@declanganley Remind us - what percentage of the US electorate voted for Trump in '24?

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@feefranklin Every whinger who complains about their electricity bill conspicuously fails to say how many units (kilowatt hours) they used in the period. Show us that number and cut the BS.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@SenatorKeogan By 'thoughtless comments', you mean people who don't agree with your warped world views.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@griptmedia Why do we need a Swedish MEP to give us the view from Brussels. Did none of the Irish MEPs give you the response you wanted?

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@BreakingPointIE He sat in the pub drinking while his animals starved.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@gavpepper85 @MichealMartinTD In the 2024 general election you came 7th in a three seater with less than 6% of the first preferences. Remind us again what gives you the right to dictate who leads any political party.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@IrishRail Same applies to the current 'Dublin-Dundalk commuter timetable'. The link to the older (to 19.04.2026) version works, the new one does not.

[Michael Coyle @coylemj]

@IrishRail On your 'timetables by route' webpage, the link for the current (valid from 20.04.2026) Dart timetable is not working. It's throwing up a 'Find times and buy tickets' panel, instead of giving you the option to download the PDF timetable.
