@EoghanOCPBP Terrific performance in the by-election, Eoghan, congratulations! Your canvas teams ran a great campaign. I was visited at home twice and saw loads of posters. My polling station, St. Peter's NS, seems to have returned decent numbers for you, so the work paid off.

@RBoydBarrett I'm very sorry to hear the awful news regarding your cancer diagnosis. I hope you will have a full recovery and that the course of treatment will be bearable and brief. You are a valuable voice for working people and I'm sure you have many decades ahead of you.

@netflix your stream crashed umpteen times during the Taylor Serrano fight, ruining the experience. If you're going to show live events, provide the bandwidth!

I celebrated Easter Sunday by listening to @EdmundGriffiths discussing Socialist electoral strategy with Alexei Sayle on the @AlexeiSaylePod. An excellent episode of an excellent series. Edmund convinced me that it is better to concentrate available resources to mount credible...

..and strong campaigns in a smaller number of constituencies, rather than to stand a large number of candidates with weak campaigns. This is a change of mind for me and that doesn't happen too often. His point about George Galloway's campaigns was well made. He also spoke well...

@RochdaleMP Congratulations on your victory this morning, George. Parliament will be a better place from now on with you back there. I'm sure your election has ruined Starmer's day!

@lidl_ireland I get a scratch and win reward most times I shop at Lidl - but sometimes I don't get one. Is there a minimum spend which is necessary in order to qualify for a scratch and win reward?

@EddieRocketsIRL I signed up for the rewards app recently. Today you sent me a reward for my birthday. Thanks for that - but it's not clear to me what the reward can be redeemed for. Can you tell me what the reward is, please?

@lidl_ireland Good morning. I was at the Cabra store this morning to get one of the camera drones advertised but they hadn't arrived in. Can you tell me when they will be in stock?

We can't tell you anything. You turned the replies off, you cowardly smear-artist.

Do NOT tell me that anti- Zionism is not deeply stained with anti- semitism

Very good attendance at the Gaza march in Dublin today. Slow to muster at the Spire but it moved off about 1.30 p.m. and numbers swelled quickly en route.... #CeasefireNOW

An interesting feature, which wasn't a factor last week, was Ruth and Leah from the SP leading a chantset which didn't include "from the river to the sea". We'd had criticism from the Irish supporters of Israel for that chant last week so I gravitated toward that section at GPO

Great turnout at the Dublin march for Palestine today. A broad range of political parties & trade unions were represented. Reps from Ireland-Palestine Solidarity, People Before Profit, Sinn Féin and the Irish Congress of Trade Unions addressed the gathering in Merrion Square.

@BellBelltoons Commiserations on the sacking. You are far too good for The Guardian! And I'm sure you won't miss being told you've "done an antisemitism" two or three times a month.

I was at the @DLWelcomes anti-racist rally, starting at the People's Park. I usually take a load of photos at demos, but there were free placards for early birds. Old Trot reflexes kicked in, I grabbed one and that was the end of the photo-spree. My mate, Kevin, took this of me.

Written accounts are not as good as photospreads, so a brief report: the march progressed on a circuit of Queen's road, Marine Road, George's Street & Mellifont Avenue. I'd estimate the crowd at 300. Good banner turnout from @pb4p, Labour and SDs.

Is this a joke? It's a very silly joke, if it is. If it's some kind of satire, I don't see what the point could be. #MiracleMeat

RTE’s Dee Forbes & Declan McBennett are Directors of GAAgo. A public service broadcaster whose primary duty is to the public, is at the same time maximising profit by putting big games behind their paywall. It is a very serious conflict of interest.

@dublinmacker I just heard you on Radio One. What an interesting story! I often think that inherited wealth debilitates some people by failing to prepare them for life's harder chapters. I wish you well for the future, that was a tough beginning, for sure.
