I was fortunate enough to see him impart his spell bounding knowledge last year in Belfast.
May you continue to guide us to reclaim our past from the other realm. RIP Manchán.
Very interesting article on the importance of the Presidential election to the North by @MarkHennessy.
@ClaireHanna wants candidates to outline how they will deliver a 'new and reconciled Ireland'.
We hope to hear from them firsthand in Derry on Oct 8.

Sinclair is a giant telecommunications corporation that owns TV stations across the country — reaching about 40% of American households. They're affiliated with Fox, ABC & CBS.
They broadcast creepy, scripted messages across all their local news station, like this one from 2018:
Heartened to see this issue now being taken up by the SocDems. Let's hope this is the last presidential election in which Irish citizens on this island are disenfranchised.
To my fellow Europeans, 450ml EU citizens :
The EU, which had already disgraced itself by entering the Association agreement with Apartheid Israel years ago, is now refusing to suspend it.
This is the final piece of evidence that the EU is consciously supporting Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians. This risks to be the end of EU values.
EU member states: I hope you will activate the CJEU. But meanwhile, please remember that regional agreements do not obliterate your obligations under intl law. Cut ties with Israel, starting with trade including of weapons. Do the right thing. Our European history commands it.

I’d like to introduce you to one of the singular greatest journalist of our age Robert Fisk who worked out of Lebanon for latter parts of his life, who did nothing other than tell the truth.
This is a rather long video, but please watch it. The detachment with which the narrative is created in western media about the levels of death that has been brought to bear on the indigenous people of the Middle East is unreal.
All week the Education Minister has avoided transparency around what happened regarding funding for the pitch at Lisneal College. The public expect better from our Ministers than stopping MLAs trying to uncover the truth.
I made that clear to the Minister at the Education Committee today.
