How does the NI Executive continue to function when the two of the governing parties voted with the opposition to remove a sitting Government Minister? Like how absolutely dysfunctional is that?

Under new head of Paramount David Ellison, the studio has drawn up a list of actors who opposed the Gaza genocide and will not allow them to appear in its films and TV shows.
Does this sound familiar?
Also, "Ellison is reportedly aiming to take over Warner Bros. next."

Paramount Has Blacklist for Stars Deemed “Overtly Antisemitic” — World of Reel
It sure looks like the likes of Javier Bardem, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Mark Ruffalo won’t be making movies for Paramount in the foreseeable future.

It should go without saying at this point, but everyone who has been a party to this in even minor ways should either be fired in unemployable disgrace, or imprisoned.
You don’t raze entire towns and cities street by street with controlled demolitions and bulldozers for any military objective. You do it because the aim is to wipe those places out of existence forever, and it’s not like they’ve been hiding this.
Inside Gaza, BBC sees total devastation after two years of war
With endless rubble and destroyed streets as far as the eye can see, any plans for Gaza's future are a far cry from where it is today, writes Lucy Williamson.

I find it very telling that all Harris has to say about the ongoing (it hasn't stopped) genocide in Gaza is that she's glad the hostages are home. That's it. Nothing else.

Absolutely insane.
Labour would have purged and smeared someone like Zohran Mamdani.
Wes Streeting's politics align far more closely with Andrew Cuomo.
The lessons from Mamdani are about how to defeat both the right - and the bankrupt "centre".

Hilary Cass is bringing three people with her to NI to "review" gender identity services at the request of our idiot Health Minister. Tenner says it's these three luddites.
Does anyone have any knowledge of Camilla Kingdon, Julie Alderson and Judith Ellis, specifically in relation to gender care or experience in or around this field? A quick search reveals nothing of note. Anything at all would be very helpful. Thanks

Yes Geert Wilders' party lost a third of its seats, but two other far-right parties gained 21 seats in the House of Reps, bringing their total with the PVV to 53 seats for the far-right. They only need another 23 seats to form a government. This isn't a victory for liberalism, I'm afraid.

I know SNAP is a US welfare system but the point is the same here. You could not PAY ME to give a fuck about what people receiving state benefits spend their money on, unless they are deliberately harming someone else by doing so. Mind your own business.

This is another example of bad faith conflation of the issue of neutrality with the issue of what the correct level of funding for the DF is.
The people who have set the funding for the DF for the last several decades are not lefties, hippies and peaceniks, they are Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael.

What possible benefit would there be for Ireland to join NATO? So we can officially add Dublin and Cork the list of Russian nuclear targets? Amazing, lads.
