Starvation is a horrific reality for children and families in Gaza.

Aid at scale must be allowed in urgently.

Starvation is a horrific reality for children and families in Gaza. Aid at scale must be allowed in urgently.

This is a man-made disaster.

Enough is enough. The United Nations must be allowed to deliver aid of all types at scale to families in Gaza, wherever they are.

Today, a war criminal under indictment from the ICC will be welcomed to the White House.

Trump, like Biden before him, has aided and abetted the extremist Netanyahu government as it has systematically killed and starved civilians in Gaza.

It is a shameful day in America.

The official end of a golden era - Giles and Dunphy taught us the truths England refused to acknowledge With John Giles retiring from punditry, itโ€™s time to acknowledge what he and the RTร‰ Panel contributed to the making of modern Ireland.

Keep Yang as a squad player. Agree on the rest. Nawrocki looks decent any time he plays, but no point keeping him if Rodgers doesn't rate him.

Main thing to be taken from being at Ireland v Senegal is tonight, is fair play to whoever made the decision to ditch Freed From Desire and other such scutter in favour of The Stunning, The Frank and Walters, Hozier etc.

What an absolutely brilliant gig from @paulheatonsolo.bsky.social and @riannedowney.bsky.social in the 3 Arena last night. Still buzzing from it.

Statement by President Higgins on violence in Gaza | President of Ireland Welcome to the website of the President of Ireland.

โ€œAny approach that leaves to a few countries such as Ireland to condemn what are international breaches of humanitarian principles and international law will rightly be seen by future generations as their having by their silences been complicit in collective punishmentโ€

It's still a great album. I agree with you that they're the 2 best songs, though!

It's great that people are discovering or rediscovering Dylan songs from the movie though, all the same!
I first discovered this song from High Fidelity.

No thanks. Rodgers is a better manager.

It used to be allowed at one time. I remember Man United playing Wrexham in Europe in the 90s.

Do Premier League scoring records matter? Football wasn't invented in 1992, and Jimmy Greaves scored the most top flight goals on 357.

Brilliant game. It was great to be at it and great that Conlethโ€™s can host big games like this again.

Have watched him live a few times for Rovers. He has plenty of pace, good movement, and is a good finisher. Would love to see him get a start against Killie in the cup next weekend.
