The faux people are in overdrive today, mourning the head of the Catholic Church.
An apology was never enough, no priests/nuns held to account, no closure for the victims as the church closed rank & denied them #Justice.
To empathise with victims while blubbering about a cult is hypocritical 🙄
A priest who helped organise Pope Francis's visit to Ireland in 2018 has recalled watching the pontiff compose his personal apology to victims of abuse in the Catholic Church

did you know: Máiréad Ní Ghráda's 1940 Irish-language science fiction novel Manannán, which features a giant humanoid mech piloted by humans riding inside it, is one of the first non-Japanese examples of a prototypical mecha (only 9 years after the debut of the earliest, Ōgon Bat 黄金バット, in 1931)?

As they should be, great news. Well done to the 1894 Group, Trade Union Blues, MCFC Foodbank and the City Matters team for holding the club to account.

The collective action on ticketing by the fanbase is the biggest success of the season. Far more important than anything on the pitch.

Great work by all involved in the campaign and the protest last week. This is good news but is only a start. Need to keep up the pressure to get @mancity.com to change the many other issues with tickets #ManCity

Big pat on the back for all involved to get this though 👏👏👏

A victory for the fan groups who have taken this up with the club. Great work.

The club would be best served engaging more with these groups.

Excellent letter in the Irish Times reminding us that Irish builders did not build the White House as indicated by the Taoiseach this week. It was build by slaves including those owned by the Irish architect James Hoban.
