Even Premier clubs, HP etc. can’t ruin my buzz.
Patrick Kielty is doing a good job and this show does celebrate children and childhood. Every year I dial back my cynical side as each little person does their thing. 🥺❤️💚
Can’t wait for the Mary’s girls to get off the E2…

Paulie Doyle, Pat Brodie and me have written a report for @uplift.ie for their Neutrality Files project.
In it, we explain why there is such a gap between consistent public support for Palestine and the absence of any material actions taken by the Irish Government against Israel? 🧵

A beautiful tribute to the children of Gaza murdered by Israel today. The Craftivism for Palestine crew brought their crochet blanket to Limerick. Each hand made square represents 10 dead Gazan children. Reminded me of the poem Oh Rascal Children of Gaza by Khaled Juma

An important update from Francesca Albanese, special UN Rapporteur on Palestine.
The flotilla fully complies with International Law. Any attempt to violate the flotilla’s mission is a violation of International Law which @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu has said she will uphold.
Empty words, Ursula?

I just asked the European Commission whether they would ask for the €50,000 back in this case, as it has clearly been used to develop a military product now contracted to be supplied to the IDF, in breach of Horizon rules.
No comment on the specific case "have to look into it", spokesman says.

Israel’s defence ministry just announced a contract to buy drones from Xtend. Its SKYLORD drone system was developed with €50,000 in EU Horizon money, which is not supposed to fund military applications. The EU grant page links to the current Xtend website, advertising its “military grade” drones
