Seamus Culleton who has a work permit for the US and has his own business there, has been locked up by the Trump regime for a number of months now.
Was given a choice between deportation (he is married to a US citizen) and detention, and chose the latter as he is settled there.

This is how thick you have to be in order to support the MAGA way of thinking.

I remember saying to a pal before, imagine what it would have been like years ago if there was social media.
Well, the brainless out-half debate currently ensuing between tribes paints a picture what it would exactly have been like.

On social and in media, there’s a plethora of podders, bloggers and pundits who plainly haven’t a clue about rugby union, all desperate for attention with either absolute bunkum or obvious second-hand soundbites.

I was asked for a snippet of advice for a friend of mine’s company newsletter on people/team management.
Summed up, it went like this…
‘If a member of your team is struggling with targets and/or workload, don’t send them on a fucking time management course - look at the targets and workload!’

According to Reporters Without Borders, in 2025, Ireland was ranked 7th in the world for freedom of the press.
The United States was ranked 57th.
So we’ll be taking no complaints about censorship from US politicians, thanks.
