Entrance to 5,000 year old passage tomb Kerb 51, Stone of the Seven Suns at Dowth, drawing showing location of the 7 suns, and the actual stone visited today The Dowth  cairn is 85 metres in diameter and 15 metres high,[3] and surrounded by 115 large kerbstones, some of which are decorated. Quartz was found fallen outside the kerbing, suggesting that the entrance to this tomb was surrounded by glittering white stone, as at Newgrange. Three stone-lined passages lead into the mound from the west. These comprise two passage tombs (known as Dowth North and Dowth South) and a souterrain. Passage tomb entrance with kerb stone in front surrounded by green grass, Dowth, Ireland

Thanks for the eco-socialist opinion, tend to think the environment is an issue for everyone, all share the same Planet

Dunno, do all environmentalists have to be far left? I remember when there was no such thing as an 'eco-socialist'.

Carole Cadwalladr was right and we’d be in a better world if more people had listened.

This tweet has been doing the rounds on Twitter now that Nathan Gill has pleaded guilty.

If only someone had tried to investigate UKIP & Russian interference 🧐

There’s another timeline where the Guardian supported me, doubled down on the investigation & I look 5 years younger ..

Q: Why was the person responsible for the Blackwater fish kill never found?

A: it wasn’t anybody’s job.

I talked to the heads of all the agencies involved in the investigation, about why the biggest pollution event in Irish history fell between the cracks.

Was a fantastic first day at ’Ireland and the American Revolution’ capped off by a brilliant keynote address by Prof. Eliga Gould. Looking forward to day two.

Well done, was a change for me to sit in a room of professional historians, and listen.
Fascinating period, the Age of Revolutions, many insights from research shared - the past helps us to understand better, the world today.

It was a fantastic closing roundtable and a fitting end to a wonderful two days. Many thanks to my co-organisers, @virtualtreasury.bsky.social, @tlrhub.bsky.social, and all the speakers, participants, and attendees! The start of a generative conversation that I hope we will continue.

What a world we live in! Donald Trump deserved the Nobel prize, says … err.. Vladimir Putin
Russian dictator, who is wanted by the ICC, says the Nobel committee has “lost credibility.”

(probably says Joe Brolly's rights to free speech are threatened too?)
