"By and large, farmers are decent, honest, hardworking people, who want to do right by future generations. With progressive, visionary leadership they could be nature and climate champions."

But that leadership is absent.

“If it is going to change things, it has to change them well. We’ve heard enough from people who clearly don’t know what they’re doing in RTÉ. It’s time to listen to the people – the creative people – who do,” @UnaMullally @irishtimes [€] https://t.co/0bUie4o9jv

“I don’t think any of us at RTÉ have any boasting left in us after the last few weeks. But I am still, after everything, proud of the work we do and the contribution we make to public service broadcasting,” Kevin Brew @irishtimes https://t.co/fwmQ2MVQcp

“Tubridy repeated over and over on Tuesday that he wants to go back to that ‘great old place’. He wants to be part of the catharsis. He may come to regret hitching his wagon to Noel Kelly’s,” ⁦@jenoconnell⁩ ⁦@IrishTimes⁩ https://t.co/KEEUpTZKdT

[Jennifer O'Connell @jenoconnell]

@IrishRail Okay, thanks. That's great news

Great read by @lisatk: I was a writer on Toy Show the Musical. It has been a weird time https://t.co/vad3BCmVm2

“Two weeks into the RTÉ crisis over secret payments, the organisation is still faffing about looking for the first aid kit. With every day it is spinning further out of control in a catastrophic doom loop of damning revelations,” @jenoconnell @irishtimes https://t.co/JbHnUm5C8d

[The Irish Times @IrishTimes]

Justine McCarthy: The next time committee members make snide remarks about RTÉ managers taking the “hubby” on foreign trips, they might stop and think that, if they had done their job in the first place, matters might not have reached this sorry pass.

What do university performance rankings really mean? And should Ireland be chasing them at all? Interesting explainer on what those sought-after university rankings show us https://t.co/UGQJehrrrG

"We just need to zoom out. The greatest marketing win in Ireland in recent years was the Wild Atlantic Way. Nobody built anything, it was just about connecting the dots" - @UnaMullally has a big idea for Dublin's O'Connell Street https://t.co/g4ZCctAHrM

[Ger Leggett @Ger_Leggett]

Great points here by @jenoconnell. People constantly spin the need for more hotels as a binary choice (more hotels = less housing/art)…until they need to book a room and are shocked by the price.

These things should run hand in hand with a bit of vision and strategy.

Deep dive by @CliffTaylorIT into RTÉ’s Bosco accounting is well worth a read https://t.co/4JbS15GJKm

Noel Kelly: Who is the behind-the-scenes agent, seen as RTÉ's ‘real director general’?

Dublin hotel prices in “the realms of the utterly fantastical,” writes @jenoconnell ⁦@IrishTimes⁩, adding “That’s where they seem to have been hovering in a semi-permanent state of suspension for some time now.” https://t.co/pyjQAZKF93
