Absolutely no disrespect intended to anyone on this panel, they're all perfectly entitled to express their views, but I wouldn't exactly call this lineup 'balanced' for a panel discussion by the State broadcaster. #RTÉUpfront

This is getting ludicrous.
I had asked the Department of Justice to confirm for me the methodology used to get the figure of 80%, and the period which it refers to, but they missed the deadline and I've yet to recieve any response. rte.ie/news/politics/…

NOW: Sinn Féin's Pearse Donerty says that "The people are ready for change. They're ready to let Sinn Féin lead this country." He said that Sinn Féin will elect a record number of local election candidates on June 7th. "The establishment will try to stop us," he added.
Labour Party Justice spokesman Aodhán Ó Ríordáin has said that “building more prisons” is “a misguided attempt to address symptoms rather than root causes” of jail overcrowding, adding that “prison should be a last resort" in the criminal justice system. gript.ie/building-more-…

I'll obviously be following up on this and asking the IPO if they are aware that almost a dozen people are allegedly buying drugs on a nightly basis on their front doorstep, and see can I corroborate this further.

"Big trouble here": A Palestinian asylum seeker living in the IPO tent city on Mount Street has told Gript that he can't sleep at night because as many as "10 or 11" other asylum seekers living in the tents are buying drugs. He asked to have his face blurred to avoid "trouble."
By this reasoning all war journalism is stupid, because "common sense" would tell you that going into an active warzone like, say, Palestine, or Ukraine, is a bad idea. But the last time I checked, we used to applaud journalists who put themselves in danger to report the facts.

I would note: @fatima_gunning was pepper-sprayed late on a Thursday night because of her excellent frontline reporting, wanting to get as close to the action as possible to report the full facts to you, the public. Can we please bear incidents like this in mind the next time…

If you bother to engage your brain and employ some basic reading comprehension skills, you'll notice that I'm not "playing the race card". I'm saying that the Left went from condemning Gardaí as a gang of racist cowboys, to defending them within 24 hours. It's a hypocrisy thing.

The current policy of Ireland concludes with a man on the floor being kicked by state officials and a female journalist being attacked by them. Is this the liberal democracy we keep hearing so much about?

On Tuesday night, an Islamist mob attacked several Coptic Christian owned homes and business in the Minya providence of Egypt, where I grew up. Here is what happened and why it matters. A brief 🧵1/
