Phil Lynott - died on this day 36 years ago, at 36 years old. Gone, but never forgotten…especially not in this old town. This statue on Harry Street, sculpted by Paul Daly & cast by Leo Higgins, commentates him. Go dtuga Dia suaimhneas da anam… #PhilLynott #Dublin #Ireland

If RTÉ replaced the Angelus with a minute dedicated to someone who died in the M&BH, one day dedicated per each individual, that would be 25 years for the babies alone

Replying to @gavreilly @VirginMediaNews
@DonnellyStephen and @NormaFoleyTD1 Two completely inexperienced TDs given roles as ministers far, far beyond their abilities. We are all seeing the results of their inabilities. Time they moved on.

I witnessed a really powerful moment today in court. A judge read the harrowing words of a junior doctor to a man who had been on a mass protest against lockdown.

#ReopeningSchoolsUNSafely Just listened to this interview. Norma Foley is endangering us all. She must resign. The incompetence & dishonesty is beyond a joke now, it's scary. Dáil unsafe, but schools are ok? Complete ignorance & madness. rte.ie/radio/utils/share/rad…

Word of the day is 'sequaciousness' (17th century): the blinkered, unreasoning, and slavish following of another, no matter where it leads.

I’ll have to play back that interview that @SarahAMcInerney has just done on @drivetimerte with Min Foley because it appears that Foley didn’t ask the CMO or NPHET their view on leaving cert students returning to school for a 3-day week next Monday Surely that cannot be right? 🤦‍♀️

Norma Foley said the LC was run "without a glitch at level 5" in November. She didn't mention, of course, that 95% of the class of 2020 didn't take those exams.

Look, I’m not going to lecture anyone or tell them what to do. Everyone’s circumstances are different. Do whatever you see fit. All I can say is this- I don’t give a fuck how safe the government say it is, I’m not sending my kids to school while the numbers are that high.
