You can argue that both parties kept the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts going as both were unable to win it in the same way they couldn’t win the Vietnam war.
Democrats were in power when WW1 and WW2 were “won” (by the combined allied forces), Democrats escalated the Vietnam war. Republicans were in power for the Korean War armistice and the Fall of Saigon.
This is a fantastic new tool for anyone involved in reporting on or researching local government as-it-happens, allowing users to search auto-generated transcripts of Council meetings across the UK and Ireland. @samtranum.bsky.social - might be of interest! h/t @lizstokoe.bsky.social
If they built all the units then it would help meet demand and in theory rents would reduce. There is no way they are going to let that happen.
So his angle is that he would rock up to the Dail and do a face off? Also he knows he can’t leave the country without Gov permission?
Councillors also have a responsibility to filter out who gets put forward.
It’s remarkable how many you can see when flying into Dublin airport once you know what they look like
Ireland’s Palestine stance. When the US backlash ramps up, no democrat politician will want to be caught in the crossfire.
But this idea of charger arms and in pavement or lamp post chargers outside people’s homes is a non runner.
Did the really have to use a third party? I expect some sort privacy invasive app will be required,
It’s because it’s an industry now and they are only interested in valuation and/or revenue.
They did manage to get the three marooned trans over it though!
For me I recall this event as the first news story that I got from the Internet. After coming home from djing in the Mean Fiddler I was chilling out and online (dial up of course 56k) and the chat room started buzzing with the news and rumours.
How many of these are on one year working holiday visas as opposed tomorrow full migration?
One of odd things that I noticed about flying into Dublin is that you can see the extent of data centres from the air.
Is that an album title?
The movie “Footloose” doesn’t need a reboot, it seems to be as relevant today as it was then.
Ironically the insurance companies will stop insuring people and property over climate change.
The bottom line is that the utility provided does not justify the intrusion on society.
I would have thought “let’s remove fire arms from society” would have been up there.
Hasn’t been a big move like this in years.
It’s probably nonsense but free publicity on every single news site.
Same festival organiser was happy to ditch Hozier off the BBC TV coverage for Reading/Leeds festival.
Wow, so this all came as a surprise.
Not again.
Festival Republic, 50% owned by MCD, is the promoter. MCD personnel also manage Hozier. Perhaps the festival should have pulled all BBC coverage?
Well I suppose the DART is heading for the city! 😀
Is that Bray, Co. Wicklow?
When they have fully funded our defence forces for the current mission of defending the state then they can come back to us on the triple lock.
Backs up the “a stopped clock is right twice a day.” Saying.
Reminder - "the economy" should be there to serve people and planet. Not people and planet serving "the economy". And the fall in birth rates is global #PostGrowth www.ft.com/content/8bfd...
Why are you using a picture of a beach?
It is going to be interesting to see UK Labour explain why they can't fund schools, or womens' refuges, or homeless hostels, or the NHS, but they are giving FREE CHATGPT TO EVERY MAN WOMAN AND CHILD IN THE COUNTRY YAAAAAAAY
State owned enterprise. Who knew that socialism would be formalised under Trump?
Unbelievable
Three trams marooned at the Point stop.
It is bizarre that unsubstantiated PR statements from an online banks can pass as news.
Sounds a bit communist to me.
Great - we won’t need consultants like Deloitte etc. we can just ask ChatGPT.
Unusual fire - assume it was gas main. Rest of the family had just passed over it not long before on the way back from town.
It’s all about the brand. Walk down Main Street in any city in Europe and North America and the retail brands are all the same. I never heard of “Joe and the Juice” - thought it was a random cafe in Nice airport, but my kids knew all about it.
5 guys is over priced and there are better local alternatives.
Would have thought that we would own that one.
You should be shouting Stasi at these guys … something that will stick and annoy and them.
It is a mark of how radically opposed the fossil fuel lobby is to decarbonisation that they're running hit pieces on the Green Party's complete non-achievements in govt, years after the fact It should be a sign that these people aren't open to compromise, so we might as well go all in
Crocs in the front line …
The nvidia action is not revenue sharing, it’s a government tax.
Look at what the 1990s ones are going for www.instagram.com/reel/DNTh-mp...
Sounding great, Rick! We have been listening while on holiday in France.🇫🇷
Doorbell cameras? Age verification?
This must be an impossible image for Ukrainians to look at. The US president applauding and joking with the man accused of illegally slaughtering their fellow countrymen, women and children. Putin must be in his element.
They are just trying to distract for who badly privatisation of the water services has gone in the UK.
Presume that you would then get hauled in as a witness in any prosecution.
Just seems very risky. Big target and when the payload is unloaded they don’t look very fly able.
If organised as an event that’s fine but not on the 530 to Waterford. That’s just not on.
Where would you have live music on public transport?
Could they not go 6-8 stories here?
No they haven’t. A street is a public space and this usage would require the EV owner to have exclusive access to the space.
Where will they fly them to?
This is the same for advertising complaints in the UK. Claims of “AI powered” when it nothing of the sort.
Primary aimed at child protection if you are somebody challenging or questioning it. I mean who would argue against that?
If I were Ozmandius, watching all of society’s media and cultural output all at once (which is what we have become) I would say that some of these political systems were anticipating mass direct protest as the climate worsened and were trying to pass laws to suppress that.
Having a go at the media already?
Please read this piece by the irreplaceable Olga Cronin explaining why the Government’s plans to legislate to break encryption are a Bad Idea, and then explain it by email (good), phone call (better) or personal visit (amazing) to your local TDs. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2025...
It’s the company you keep and it’s beginning to add up.
Poor reporting by RTE trying to push away from climate change and suggesting that arsonists are the actual problem. Why not post up a photo of people on a beach …
I’m on the Côte d’Azur so tease away! An ice cream lasts about 2 seconds here’
The strand road has got bigger …
Will anybody do this?
You’re on that road and not driving a 2 ton Ford Raptor truck?
Well unless he goes after the insurance companies, the actuaries won’t hide climate change and Americans will soon be refused insurance/massive hikes or will know people who have been.
All the available drones are delivering burgers in Blanch.
Indie song lyrics?
This would be for people actively seeking it out. Most people aren’t and they have lost all casual access. A couple of years ago RT was in the same channel list on most consumer platforms as Sky News, BBC and CNN. Now they are gone.
Can we not just hoover in peace?
The team probably saw it the latest Mission impossible movie 🤣
The only US built cars bought in Europe are Tesla’s and a few large pick up trucks (by fans of then). Most American car companies are international corporations so build the cars that suit those markets in those markets.
Enjoying listening in the 32 degree evening heat of Cagnes Sur Mer on Côte d’Azur!
If only we had those AI cars that Dermot Desmond was on about.
Kids movies are particularly loud. I wonder is the volume thing a “you won’t get this from your TV/phone/tablet at home”?
No under it or over it as per the book?
Ireland wasn’t with Germany in the 30s or 40s so you can correct that for a start. Well recorded in history.
Wording like “ ‘to inherit an Ireland we can all be proud of’ is a warning bell.
This will take years to resolve. It’s not like you’re in a toy shop and decide on the other model instead.
We are militarily non aligned.
Your statement is completely incorrect.
“Ryan Tubridy returns the funds and Netanyahu's strategy to seize control of Gaza faces strong resistance from both within and beyond Israel.” Is there a connection here that we should be looking at?
Pay off in 4 years or less in most cases. Wait until you see your tariff induced inflation …
America could be a leader here. Helps in energy independence. Even in “rainy Ireland” we are installing home solar (grants available) because there is a benefit and payoff.
For EV charging?
How is this even news? Oh it’s August.
One of those AI image generators
Somebody using midjourney to organise their protest …
You could have got a train to the station either side and a taxi from there?
Seems flat to me
If they do this then nobody without legal status will be recorded, job done and ICE can stand done.
It seems you order off a screen and it all comes out of the one kitchen in T2.
In my opinion, The long rectangular shape doesn’t lend itself to being an urban place, just too big.
I think the shape of Smithfield is not very conducive for a modern city square - especially as it’s original purpose was a livestock market
