A reminder that 90% of Ireland's so-called 'forests' are industrial plantations, virtually empty of nature.

It doesn't have to be like this: with a bit of thought, we could satisfy our timber needs AND have huge tracts of natural forest ecosystems, bursting with life.

The greatest hero of course, is Ahmed al Ahmed, the Syrian Muslim fruit shop owner who was seriously wounded disarming the gunman and saving many lives. He seems to have faded a bit from the story because his actions don't support the narrative that support for Palestinians generates antisemitism.

c.7000 elderly people, many with dementia & confused were given “eviction notices” with 28 days notice from care homes in 2024 because of changing care needs/they could not afford to pay

A 200% increase since 2018

So, you ask, if they can’t just do a simple thing like release the files as the law requires, how can we trust them to do hard things like run the economy and keep us safe?

The answer, of course, is that we can’t. We can never trust they can and will do the right thing.
Lawless shambolic shitshow.

Why Is the Government Really Refusing to Investigate Russian Interference in Brexit?
Keir Starmer's decision to exclude Russian interference in the 2016 EU referendum from his inquiry into foreign interference in our elections should ring alarm bells, argues Sergei Cristo

“.. After the release of thousands of Epstein files on Friday, The New York Times contacted Ms. Farmer .. She broke down in tears.

“I’ve waited 30 years,” she said. “I can’t believe it. They can’t call me a liar anymore.”

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Today is the day 🤞 that my young friend, mother of 4 school-aged kids, with a very aggressive, rare form of cancer, actually gets the liver resection that’s been cancelled previously.

Hoping hard that it all goes well.

Seems that some migrants are heroes.

You wouldn't accept that, of course- just look at Labour's current vindictive anti-migrant 'policies'.

Terribly sad day, especially for the Reiner family. I sincerely hope it wasn't his son.
