Heading for a coffee on a sunny Friday afternoon in Dublin a week a half ago and just happened to meet the Irish rugby team chilling out over coffee after the Captain’s Run. So many living legends and all relaxed and happy to have a chat and a picture. Roll on Wales next week! #SixNations2025

🚨🚨The press briefing yesterday between Pres Zelenskyy, JD Vance & Trump was absolutely devastating and to my mind the lowest point of American diplomacy in modern history. @kyivindependent.com editorial is a must-read acutely summarising this excruciating event.🧵 kyivindependent.com/editorial-a-...

Great match with a much improved Wales rugby team in Cardiff today. Super atmosphere. Ireland will need to be much better than this to beat France. #WALvIRE

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.
