All tweets are a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. Director of the Edmund Burke Institute. Deputy Editor of Gript.

@pmarca Thinking about how it's being received sounds dangerously close to introspection.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

The Minister seems to have quite a refined ability to not be aware of things that other people seem quite certain have been brought to her attention repeatedly.

EXCLUSIVE: "I told her personally" - An ex-Fine Gael Justice Minister said that in 2023 he privately raised a number of controversial books with then-Education Minister Norma Foley, including "What's the T?", telling Gript "I even named the books for her":https://t.co/5MldGKgw6R

Once the committee has finished Gript will move the Ashton stories outside the paywall so that people can see exactly what was done to dogs there.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

Nearly six years ago I reported - in what I believe was my first investigative piece - on animal cruelty in Ashton Dog Pound. Sydney Nagle, the vet on call at the pound, finally found himself before a fitness to practice committee yesterday. @fatima_gunning reported.

[gript @griptmedia]

Former pound volunteer weeps hearing details of animal mistreatment at fitness to practice hearing of vet linked to the now disgraced Ashton Pound, where dog was left “dying” for days.

Matt has spent a considerable amount of time on this story, and I think very much deserves credit for what was happening in Brittas becoming more widely known.

Committing to a story like this, over months, is only made possible by our subscribers, who we are deeply grateful to.

MATT TREACY on the court ruling on BRITTAS : Justice Humphreys delivered a damning decision on the dwellings constructed without planning permission - criticising “the almost unbelievable chutzpah of the developers who even now claim “innocent mistake".

@Mullins77David I just think it's neat.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@GrannyCahill @griptmedia Greg was very involves in the Zero Covid group we broke several stories about. He hasn't been fond of us since.

@fitzr1189 @ThomNolan Resurgence in sorcerous activity?

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

It was nice to see the Irish Times confirm that Gript has thousands of paying subscribers.

I'd prefer that hadn't been due to Gript's financial data, and my own private emails to John, being leaked to them - the most likely source of said leak being obvious - but such is life.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@ThomNolan Given that it is my private emails that were leaked it would seem that I am a man more stabbed than stabbing.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@SHOCeallaigh Very good, you?

[MRJB 🇬🇧🇨🇦 @DrMichaelBonner]

People are finally reading the last 52 pages of The End of History.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@higginsdavidw This feels like cheating.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@John_360__ FG will certainly hope that's the case given their performance.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

So far Aontu are getting absolutely bodied in Dublin Central. Multiple boxes with a single vote for Smyth. The day may improve but it's looking like the sort of result which should cause a very serious internal discussion.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@jccfergie I meant having to deal with people asking you for money and then spinning out about it if you don't immediately say yes.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@Poachy51 @John_360__ The problem is expectations and internal options. FF have been beaten down by Martin so thoroughly that half them are thanking him for keeping them alive, and O'Callaghan is determined to miss his shot. SF expects to win, and they have competent alternatives to Mary Lou.

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@jccfergie Does this not all become terribly tiresome over time?

[Gary Kavanagh @GL_Kavanagh]

@John_360__ Fair, I should have said good day for Gary Gannon's organisational capabilities.
