@RTEsport Great performance from Kate. And another fabulous evening from @rtesport. That wasn't the Femke Bol we know. She looked very pale. Has she Covid like Noah? You heard it here first...

@James_Dart Fabulous talent. I became more of a fan after he spoke out about the Uigher Muslim situation. And this from a Chelsea fan!

Here’s @endawyley on @RTEArena reading and talking about the Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin poem she chose for this 80th birthday tribute book https://t.co/8G2LysAHPh @poetryireland @PoetryProgRTE available in good bookshops or online https://t.co/GIOEvhPwau

@SocDems @HollyCairnsTD Other than having an experienced mid-wife present the births required no medical interventions...

[Nicholas McLachlan @NickyMcL]

@SocDems @HollyCairnsTD Home births are safe. And perfectly normal. My partner and I had two home births, in 1995 and 2000, in remote west Kerry.

The most important thing about this amazing Paris transformation is how fast it happened — how fast people on bikes “appeared” — once streets were transformed. You can’t write this off as “Paris was always this way,” because it wasn’t.

It took leadership.

[Nicholas McLachlan @NickyMcL]

@rachelparris Totally agree. It's a bugbear of mine. Anyhow, since when did we start asking people how they feel? Shouldn't be allowed.

[Nicholas McLachlan @NickyMcL]

@CluidHousing Does this mean Clúid will be building more social homes in Dingle in 2023? They are badly needed...

@cathmartingreen @DeptCulturelRL @culture_ireland @artscouncil_ie @creativeirl @MaureenKennell5 As a practising writer and poet with 30 years experience in the sector I applaud this initiative. I applied and was not selected when many younger, much younger, practitioners were. It felt like an awful kick in the teeth. However, that doesn't change the importance of the scheme

[Rory Hearne @RoryHearneGaffs]

Allowing property to sit vacant or derelict in a #HousingCrisis is akin to hoarding food in a famine

There's not a shortage of homes

There's a failure to tackle vacancy

166,000 vacant homes

40000 derelict properties

Vacant offices & shops

Policy neglect

As I say in #Gaffs

[Nicholas McLachlan @NickyMcL]

@coophousingie @CluidHousing @Clariongroup @insidehousing Very impressive work on housing. Any plans for new social homes in Dingle and west Kerry? Housing needs at critical levels here.
