The Court has ruled against the Orange Order’s challenge to the prohibition of the Drumcree Parade.

No amount of spin will change the legal reality.

It is now time to draw a line on this horrendous chapter.

Before pumpkins, Irish & Scottish people carved faces into turnips & other root vegetables.
Irish emigrants brought these traditions to North America. Halloween is rooted in the ancient Gaelic festival that marked the end of harvest and the start of winter, Samhain 🔥

@eddiefarren13 @ExtremeFootbal4 Is a figure that’s surprising but Ferguson had an effect on his players that meant club came before country’s and a lot of friendly games Man Utd players didn’t show up for. In 17 years Ryan Giggs only had 64 Wales caps, played ONE friendly game from 1991 - 2000.

Having an average week after week in #FPL this season, can’t get a break. You’d think someone drew all over my team last night with a yellow highlighter. 😔

1985, Farewell to a Legend

Dónal Lunny, Christy Moore and O’Donoghue’s. Three legends in one photograph.

Remembering Dónal Lunny, a giant who helped shape the sound of Irish music. RIP.

Mairfidh a cheol. ☘️

The full ending as Edendork win the Tyrone SFC for the first time ever thanks to Niall Morgan’s two-point free three minutes into stoppage time.

Not too many occasions down the years where such a big underdog wins the replay. Incredible success story.

The UK is only in debt because it Privatised everything.

If Margaret Thatcher had never existed and we never privatised Oil, Gas, Electricity, Airports, Water, Mail, Rail, Rolls Royce, British Airways...

We would have Trillions of Pounds and own everything, just like Norway.

Considering we all witnessed Phillip Brett of the DUP go full Alan Partridge with the bodily shakes this David Brent comparison is near on perfect. “To quote the great philosopher Des’ree….”.

[Henry Joy @DiscipleElland]

"GAVIN, I KNOW YOU'RE RATTLED TONIGHT..."

And so began the full public implosion of Unionism after a seminal month in the history of local politics.

Last night on BBC's The View, the Leaders of the three main Unionist Party's inadvertently shone a huge, glaring spotlight into the chaos which has now engulfed them.

Gavin Robinson of the DUP, now a 'Leader' in name only, did indeed look "rattled". Carla Lockhart had delivered him a hammer blow just before he went on air.

Gavin is the epitome of a man on "automatic pilot". And he has been for some time... Permanently in fear of the vocal extremes, in particular Jamie Bryson who took over his "leadership of Unionism" by stealth some time ago.

In a bizarre almost surreal moment, Gavin (now in full David Brent mode) declared that he had shared a packet of Haribo's with Carla.
So therefore they must still be mates...

It was a tumbleweed moment...

I was half waiting for big Finchy to come to his rescue by hurling a shoe over the roof of the BBC Studios...

The brilliant Mark Carruthers, (a presenter for whom Christmas had just arrived two months early), stoked the flames of ferment with his customary brilliance.

Jim Allister, red-faced and irate (his default setting in life) poured on the petrol as Gavin bizarrely sat with his back to him, unable to even look at his rival who was setting him alight in full view...

Then there was Jon Burrows the leader of the UUP who was wisely on a video-link away from the ensuing chaos. We all presumed that Jon was at home until Gavin dramatically announced "Jon's in Taiwan!".

Hang on.... Taiwan...?? Yes, Taiwan.... Jon had actually flown all the way off to the Far East to find out if they do things any better over there. It turns out they do...

"I'd like to point out that there is no cost to the taxpayer for this trip!" yelled Jon like a badge of honour... An attempt to steal the moral high ground as the madness ensued around him.

This was now Primetime Box Office viewing. And it got even better...

His interrogation succesfully completed, Mark Carruthers headed over to his three analysts for comment.

And sitting shellshocked. we had Tim Cairns, looking like a slightly older version of his namesake Tim from the Office... "I'm just so sad" declared Tim, "I'm really just so sad...!"

Tim knew the game was up... Unionism was now on life support. Wernham Hogg was about to finally go bust... Where was Dawn last night when he needed her?

As for Big Gavin, he had slipped off out the back door, off to do a charity photoshoot, before planning his next career move as a door-to-door Salesman for Haribo...

"Live fast, die old" as David Brent would say...

HENRY JOY.

i really think this video is a watershed moment, at least for american liberals. i am seeing so many boomers on facebook and instagram finally understand the (racist) double standards muslim politicians are held to in this country. i believe in good!

If the Irish government made that with tax payers money that is a complete insult to rape victims. Young people are ostracised enough because of social media without criminalising a hug from an elderly family member.

[Europa.com @europa]

🇮🇪 The Irish state has published an advert discouraging grandparents from hugging their grandchildren, as part of a campaign designed to promote "consent".
