Archaeology shows us that people have always, always modified, altered and changed things - buildings, monuments, places - for their own present needs. Prehistoric Barrows built on, medieval castles changed, late medieval sculpture slighted during Refomation
Itโs what we do!!!
The way Ireland experiences Black Friday without Thanksgiving always reminds me of Narnia enduring winter without Christmas.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
Here's how to turn it off.
First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
Now do the show but only with senior academics.

Bad enough arson against immigrant centres became standard practice for racists.

The Taoiseach & Tรกinaiste poured petrol on all the above during the week, & we shouldn't be shy in saying it.
Which of the high paid immigrants in manufacturing do you want to get rid of boys? Which of the doctors and nurses and care workers? Who will clean your hospitals?

People who are generally upset with how their lives are going, and also feel there are too many people around who look different, can never actually be appeased.
Not by Brexit, not by eliminating FoM, not by new taxes or fees, not by ending ILR, not by denaturalizing not by anything.
