It’s cos I’m Irish innit

[Dexys Midnight Runners @DexysOfficial]

I, Kevin Rowland (the son of Irish immigrants) and the main songwriter of ‘Come On Eileen,’ am disgusted to learn that Nigel Farage has used our song to make his entrance for his party conference. Myself, and all of Dexys are passionately against Farage’s politics.

The future of Ireland is for the people of this island to decide, and for the people of this island alone.

It is not the right of any British Prime Minister to deny our people’s right to self-determination.

Today I met with Andy Burnham and directly challenged his anti-democratic comments on a referendum on Irish unity, which are completely at odds with the Good Friday Agreement.

The right to a referendum on Irish unity was guaranteed by the Good Friday Agreement, and that Agreement must be honoured.

I have full belief and confidence in the ability of all the people of our island to take full control of our own future and to build a new and united Ireland.

Two wealthy Americans born in 1946:

One has funded major medical research, provided millions of free books to children, and supported disaster relief through a lifetime of philanthropy.

The other is the antichrist

@streetlifer1 My young cousin drowned in the care of his 8 year old brother - he’s carried the weight of that all his life & it has had a very negative effect on him. As my Mum used to say “you can’t put an old head on young shoulders”

@ArtyBagger I thought this was count Binface at a quick glance

COULD SOMEONE IN AMERICA PLEASE EXPLAIN THE APPEAL TO US HERE IN EUROPE 🤔
HE'S AN 80 YEAR OLD DROOLING DEMENTIA PATIENT IN MAKEUP AND DIAPERS AND MILLIONS OF YOU WORSHIP HIM LIKE A GOD 🙄 WE DONT UNDERSTAND INSANE SHIT LIKE THIS HERE IN EUROPE 🤷

For the first time in 75 years, the Sam Mcguire Cup comes home to Mayo, Ireland.

I said it three years ago when I was in Ballina: Mayo for Sam!

And I meant it.

I said it because I know what it means not just the county of Mayo but to my own family’s story.

Today, the dream becomes reality.

Congratulations to my friends in Mayo. You earned this victory. Enjoy every minute. Sam is coming home ☘️

[KATY PERRY @katyperry]

I am deeply appalled and angry to see “Firework” used on the @WhiteHouse TikTok account as a backing track for video footage of military strikes. I did not approve this, I was not asked, and I absolutely do not condone it.

I wrote this song to be an anthem of hope, healing, and inner strength for people going through their darkest personal moments. To see a message of self-worth and upliftment weaponized to soundtrack destruction and violence is a complete violation of everything my song stands for.

My music is for bringing people together, not celebrating warfare.

@RosieWhile My daughter is also 8 months pregnant & travels the tube nearly every day. Not once has she had to stand, she did in the beginning when she wasn’t so visibly pregnant but not now

Do it for Ireland, Max. ✊🏻

[Paul Weller @paulwellerHQ]

A few days ago, Dr Hussam Abu Safiyeh said these words to his lawyer: “This is the last time you will see me...they brought me here to kill me. I don't see myself surviving. This is the end”.

This man is a paediatrician.

@ProIndianPR @BeyondBelief87 @AmyMek & most Irish people know what it is to be an immigrant- or have family that left home - speaking as one born to immigrant parents & for me anyway I’ve always tried to view the situation from the immigrants perspective.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Will Elon Musk and other MAGA types be tweeting about this former top rightwing politician in the UK who was just found guilty of being a pedophile and whose wife aided and abetted him in those sick sex crimes against children? If not, why not?

[Sheila Maguire @shemag1]

@Tbrady1277 @arielhelwani He’s an awful person & Irish people hate him, he’s also off his face here. The devil is definitely on horseback

[jean Coonan @jean_coonan]

Very very loud alarm bells should be going off

[Sheila Maguire @shemag1]

@MichaelC_RTE Can’t begin to imagine the depth of loss for their loved ones. I often think of them & the tragic & avoidable waste of their treasured lives

[Michael Corcoran @MichaelC_RTE]

Time moves on but the pain of loss lives on, always in our thoughts and forever in our hearts. Much love to families and many friends today and everyday 💔

[Lewis Goodall @lewis_goodall]

Musk as a trillionaire- anyone as a trillionaire- is a grotesque economic, moral and political problem. We cannot have individuals with that level of power, whatever they might have achieved.

[Irish Unity 🇮🇪🇵🇸 @IrishUnity]

most days I’m convinced this is the greatest moment in irish tv

[George Galloway @georgegalloway]

These people have been burning out innocent families in the north of Ireland for as long as I’ve been alive. And mostly white, Christian families at that. Before a black face was ever seen in Belfast there were plenty of black hearts
