What a great finale for #traitorirl. Great to see the girls uncloak the boys as traitors & for them to win out and share the money between them. Siobhan McSweeney was a brilliant presenter & the fashion was fab.

The #GoodFridayAgreement did not magically occur. Years of work by many got us to that stage.
From the Mary Robininson archive @uniofgalwayasc.bsky.social this letter from Mo Mowlam:
“The roots of the present ceasefire, and the desire for peace have been nurtured by your work as President.”

That feeling when you pour your first cup of tea and add your milk only to find it is gone off! Thankfully had more milk to start the day off!

Here's something that takes seconds and could have actual positive outcomes.
There is an official 'citizen's petition' system in the EU. There's one open at the moment to ban conversion therapy for LGBT+ people in the EU.
Ireland can be 1 of the 7 nations needed
