There is not a conspiracy of evil capitalists keeping billions in poverty. It's just a side-effect of the system we have. How in the hell can we change it?!
Latest HARMONIE high resolution charts bring center of #StormAmy closer to Ireland on Friday with stronger gusts into West and Northwest. If these charts stay consistent you could see upgrades in warnings for some areas so stay tuned.
@Nick_Delehanty Why don’t you put in a bid if you think you can do if for far less? Aren’t you supposed to be economically literate? Have you done any analysis beyond the highlighted text? (I haven’t; just not really sure what you’re complaining about without some cost basis)
The prospect of Mairead McGuinness becoming President is appalling. She voted against a motion in the European Parliament to provide further resources to save lives in the Mediterranean. She then gave a false explanation for doing so. She has to be stopped.
Ecargobikes are a great way to move around the city 4 shopping, leisure, work or schooldrops. Our campaign has 2 types of ecargo bikes available for families/individuals to trial out. Contact [email protected] for queries. @LimerickCycling#limerick#ecargobike
In a now deleted post, a DUP Minister broadcasts the location of a temporary shelter in Larne for people driven out of their homes by the loyalist pogrom in Ballymena. The leisure centre was subsequently attacked and set on fire.
The Ditch can exclusively report that EU states exported 69 million rounds of ammunition to Israel since October 2023 under the controversial EU-Israel trade agreement.
That includes 15 million rounds sent to Israel in the first four months of this year.

KNEECAP STATEMENT:
Since our statements at Coachella — exposing the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people — we have faced a coordinated smear campaign.
For over a year, we have used our shows to call out the British and Irish governments' complicity in war crimes.
The recent attacks against us, largely emanating from the US, are based on deliberate distortions and falsehoods. We are taking action against several of these malicious efforts.
Let us be absolutely clear.
The reason Kneecap is being targeted is simple — we are telling the truth, and our audience is growing.
Those attacking us want to silence criticism of a mass slaughter. They weaponize false accusations of antisemitism to distract, confuse, and provide cover for genocide.
We do not give a f*ck what religion anyone practices. We know there are massive numbers of Jewish people outraged by this genocide just as we are. What we care about is that governments of the countries we perform in are enabling some of the most horrific crimes of our lifetimes — and we will not stay silent.
No media spin will change this.
Our only concern is the Palestinian people — the 20,000 murdered children and counting.
The young people at our gigs see through the lies.
They stand on the side of humanity and justice.
And that gives us great hope.
Kneecap ❤️
@itsthatgirlsuzi @irishexaminer Well said Suzanne. Really telling that you’ve never once been contacted after an incident report! I’ve only made one NIMS report myself, also asked to be contacted and heard nothing. Appalled to hear that’s normal for more serious reports. Head in hands.
@DamianBoylanFG@CorkCyclingCrew What word in their post shows the “outrage” hey? They’re just criticising your suggestion, is that difficult for you to respond to?
There are people calling for creation of an Irish DOGE. I have, of course, never once heard them call for strengthening of the FOI laws that up to now have been most responsible for bringing govt waste to light. It’s just more bullsh** culture war crap appropriated from the U.S.
ALARMING! 🚨From Reuters:
Reports that a team headed by Musk has taken over the Office of Personnel Management.
Locked gov employees put of the massive datasets that "covers every facet of the federal workforce."
They have set up beds and cots in the Director's office.
