On March 17th the Taoiseach is going to crawl up to a paedophile rapist and hand him a bag of shamrocks he'll have forgotten 2 minutes later hoping for a pat on the head.
We are better than that, we deserve better than this.

We can look back to comments prior to Storm Chandra, to the likes of Babet, Éowyn, Ophelia etc. and for him to say in October that certain projects wouldn't go ahead because they'd be polarising? This is only going to get costlier.
For Ministers to call out Met Éireann is farcical

First book of 2026 in a promise to myself to read more. Well written, insightful, concise. It feels surface thin at times but you sense she’s very much putting herself on the page so forget about SY. Made me realise how psychically devastating their break up was to my inner world. Thurston you jerk!
