That a vast swathe of our commentariat feel emboldened to complain about our President having called out war crimes as war crimes is a sign of social and moral decay. Too many have bought into the idea that pragmatism is the same as being callow and callous.
Great, more competition for home buyers. Bet they don't get a single investor looking to build.
Jaysus, you're scraping the barrel for pro-war guests aren't you?
The fact that they're sending out this lad is enough of an admission they know they're not just wrong but completely out of step with the public.
Merz joining Trump's attacks on Spain typifies Germany's attitude to the EU. They prioritise their own short term interests over the integrity of the EU. We need to deepen our ties with Spain and form a bloc to be a counterweight to german power within the EU before their stupidity tears it apart.
I honestly think taxing the super-rich out of existence is for their own good. That amount of money seems to do something deeply unpleasant to human brains.
It is shocking how competent they've made the Bush administration look.
Anyone who thinks positive regime change is possible in Iran should remember the US-Israel axis replaced Bashar al-Assad with an Islamic State remnant in Syria.
Interesting to see what the current EU regime will do. Do they prioritise their neo-colonial ambitions or protect the integrity of the union by backing up an uncooperative member state. One of their greatest foreign policy goals is now completely at odds with the continued existence of the union.
Quite probably the most despicable person in Irish politics that never identified as a citizen journalist.
I'm not surprised, but I'm still disgusted by the eagerness of western powers to repeat the Iraq War with Iran knowing exactly what happened last time, and knowing it will be far worse this time if the US and Israel are allowed to continue to escalate.
Those who fail turn learn from history (Israelis attacking French fans in the Stade de France a little over a year ago) are doomed to repeat it.
Sunday Independent...
Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.
The next time you hear some politician blaming pearl mussels or the Habitats Directive for flooding disasters, might be a good time to point this out to to them.
It's one of the greatest failings of the age that extreme incompetence is generally accepted as a decent defence from the people running the world. "I didn't know what the lads cooking the burgers were up to" would get an assistant manager fired from McDonalds, but it's fine for world leaders.
Jaysus, the exodus of leftists from X really has done a number on the right wingers still clinging on. I don't think even he would've been that lazy only a few years ago. He would've at least wrapped up the same sentiment in some sort of reasonable newspaper soeak
'Granted, if our problem were orcs or the Dark Lord Sauron or something, then it would be easier to sympathise with Martin’s insistence that he is not Gandalf. Until then, it seems fair enough to ask for some semblance of a real, timely solution.'
This week's column is about Magic Wand Micheál.
I for one am shocked that the man with the app producing industrial amounts of CSAM wanted to go to a party on Epstein Island. Shocked.
As anyone who has tried to get neurodiversity support from the state can tell you, our mental health care system is inadequate. I would still be waiting for ADHD treatment if I hadn't been able to put together the money to go private, and I would still be suffering from constant, crushing anxiety.
What a gobshite.
I analysed the DoJ’s immigration chatbot for @iccl.bsky.social and the amount of seriously wrong information it gave was shocking even to me. The idea that people fleeing persecution would be expected to rely on a chatbot in lieu of actual legal advice is 😱😱😱

God, he's filleting out the most cruel and incompetent of the Conservative Party. I give it two years of a Reform government until even the DUP want to leave Britain.
CC exercising homeric levels of self-restraint to not just shout "I Told You So" at everyone..
I don't think we, as a nation, had as much fun with the video link Paddy's Day as we should have. I mean look at it!
Dept wants to put limits on recoverable costs, leaving people facing six-figure bills even when they win. That would be the end of public-interest environmental litigation, favouring wealthy and commercial interests, and undermining environmental protection. www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...
Oh thank god!
Is one of them the sexy Mr. Tayto? The single most unforgivable peice of art produced in Ireland.
"Fatally injured" he was shot. It's not even contested whether or not the armed guard killed him.
Note who was defending Harris here.
