In the current climate it's very easy to forget this level of nastiness from a person in his position should be unconscionable. What a pathetic boor he is.

The year is 2025 in the ever-blighted 6 most northern-easterly counties of Ireland and you can only boil with rage over one of two things:
1. Words projected by a hip-hop group at a gig(s)
2. Israel indiscriminating killing a child in Gaza every 45 minutes
Choose wisely.

My opinion is based on what you've broadcast to the public domain and you don't decide what opinion I'm entitled to hold. If it wasn't for Irish Nationalism, there would be no Irish Tricolour yet you declare all nationalists cowards while displaying the flag as part of your identity. 🤦🏻♂️

And, of course, the compare and contrast exercise with north of the border is truly depressing. Latest cycling infra in Belfast is a line of paint on the side of a dual carriageway whereas in Louth, they’re building an elevated cycle path on stilts along the shore line. 🫠

Took the family cycling on the new Carlingford to Omeath greenway yesterday and once again marvelled why Ireland is not blanketed with greenways. That pic was probably the only time there was no else in the shot. Walkers, cyclists, young and old - enjoying fresh air, getting exercise.

I suggest you focus less on my reading skills and more on your writing skills. If 6.4 is your high water mark, it's now clear why you're so touchy about AI.
