Our relationship with the Irish team will dramatically change one way or the other come Sunday.

Policing by consent?

Would you look at the level of policing of a protest!

Totally disproportionate, the EU is driving a wedge between itself and the people of Europe.

[Mick Caul @caulmick]

I don't like what I see of the EU in Dublin. The community of people's was a great idea, but this constant war-mongering and ignoring the will of the people is very concerning.

Ireland's membership of the European Union began in 1972 when 83% of Irish people voted "yes" to joining the European Communities in a referendum held on 10 May.

You would wonder how many of us would say "yes" today, watching the Government’s betrayal on the Triple-lock and our neutrality.

Irish EU presidency to cost triple those of Cyprus, Denmark.

Much of the estimated €293 million price tag will be on security

▪️Cyprus -€95 million.
▪️Denmark - €80 million

European Affairs Minister Thomas Byrne played down the near €300 million budgeted figure for Ireland’s upcoming Council presidency.

“We haven’t set it as high as that. The figure will be high ... [but] we haven’t published a final figure really,” he said in an interview.

Strange Times.

More criticism from the media of Simon Harris - Blue Hugh will have his work cut out for him to turn the tide against the Rotating Tanaiste.

The Irish Times view on the long-term unemployed: Harris’s dubious target

But his attack on the long-term unemployed was ill-judged and continues to cause controversy, with a row in the Dáil yesterday when Peter Burke, Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, was forced to jump to his defence in the face of criticism from the Opposition

Figures show that most of those on longer-term unemployment for sustained periods are older workers who presumably find it hard to get back into the workforce for a variety of reasons.

A Government which has been slow to respond to the AI revolution would do well to get on and focus on this, rather than diverting attention to some kind of imagined “crackdown” on the long-term unemployed.

Mahmoud Abdel-Malek, portero de 20 años del Gaza Sports Club, fue asesinado ayer tras un ataque aéreo perpetrado por el Ejército de Israel. La cifra de deportistas, entrenadores y árbitros palestinos asesinados por las fuerzas israelíes en la Franja de Gaza supera las mil víctimas desde el octubre de 2023.

Que en paz descanses, Mahmoud 🕊️

Lewis Hamilton shares an emotional message after meeting Palestinian children evacuated from Gaza and receiving medical and mental health support in Egypt through INARA.

“These children are no different from yours.”

“Meeting some of the Palestinian children evacuated from Gaza and supported by @INARAorg in Egypt broke my heart. Beautiful, bright children who have faced trauma, grief and horrendous injuries, things no child should ever have to endure. Some have been shot or badly burned in attacks and are still facing a complicated road towards recovery. But what really struck me was how resilient they were and how much joy they seem to find in each other.”

“When I asked about their dreams, they spoke about becoming teachers and doctors so they could help others, the way they were helped. After everything they’ve been through, they still imagine a future caring for other people. That has stayed with me. I met children at school, in hospital and at a mental health clinic helping them work through their trauma. I also went into families’ homes and listened to their stories of recovery and being separated from loved ones - their children, their parents, their siblings. The pain of that separation and uncertainty is hard to comprehend.”

“Their stories made me think about the children still in Gaza, who are living in terrible conditions. According to reports, more than 21,500 children have been killed and 45,000 injured since October 2023. Every one of them had a home and a future. We can’t forget them.”

“These children are no different from yours. Their lives are just as precious. They should be able to feel safe in a classroom with friends, be with their families and imagine a future. I’m so grateful the young people I met are getting the help they need, but it’s heartbreaking that they’ve had to leave their homes to find safety.”

“Thank you to the truly incredible Dr Hazem and his wonderful team at INARA for helping these children access medical care, mental health support and education, for supporting their families, and for letting me spend time with them. They deserve more than survival. They deserve the freedom to grow up. To dream beyond what they’ve lived through. To simply be children. Let’s do what we can to help, support organisations like INARA, use our voices and let them know we care.”

Both Netanyahu and the opposition are committed to killing children.

Change will not come from within Israel.

It can only come through huge external pressure.

Dubliners classic kicks off protest heading to National Gallery where European Political Community having dinner

[Jean-Luc Mélenchon @JLMelenchon]

Israël m'interdit d'entrer sur son territoire ? Je n'ai pas demandé à y entrer.

Si nous arrivons au pouvoir, nous dirons ce que nous aurons à dire.

À savoir : dénoncer le génocide à Gaza, la colonisation en Cisjordanie et l'annexion progressive du Sud-Liban et du plateau du Golan.

Refuser la loi du plus fort ou du plus fou et respecter, en toutes circonstances, le droit international : telle est notre ligne politique.

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

Hakeem Jeffries is so compromised by the Israeli lobby that when asked if he opposes the section of the NDAA that would merge the U.S. military with Israel’s he refuses to answer then gives a typical doublespeak politician response.

This man is a traitor.

David Beckham and Prince William celebrating you raising £15m for the London Air Ambulance Charity as if they did it.

Either of them could have done it with their pocket change.

Instead they take credit for what you did.

On the run..

How long before, @SimonHarrisTD answers questions about state-backed purchase of parents’ home?

Eligibility?

Mortgage-to-rent provider Home For Life bought the house for €367,000 in 2022 and leased it to Wicklow County Council for 25 years in a transaction declared a full market price sale on the property price register, despite being advertised for sale at €490,000 in October 2019.
