[We see a close up of a young white male, tanned, white teeth, coiffed hair clearly an influencer on social media. It is an image such as you see when social media posts are shown on the news. In the corner of the screen is named a location: DUBAI. He is staring slightly off-camera for several silent panels of the comic strip. His eyes move slightly. He is having a thought.] From off-screen a newsreader’s commentary comes: NEWSREADER: Extraordinary images here of an expat in Dubai [The influencer’s eybrows raise slightly] …Having their first ever geopolitical thought. [CUT TO a BBC news scene. The BBC newsreader CLIVE MYRIE is talking to an interviewee next to the screen showing the social media influencer’s face. The interviewee’s name is David Jones].

[Pointing at the screen, the influencer’s expression still the same] You can clearly see in the eyebrows here, the dawning realisation that there *might* be something in the world beyond his dickhead self.

Andy Farrell (behind) and Martin Corry, of England, tackling Ronan O’Gara. Ireland won that game (2007 in Croke Park) 43-13, the biggest ever margin of victory for Ireland over England.

Andy Farrell has been involved in both of Ireland’s biggest wins over England this century.

John Collison, who uncritically interviewed Musk recently www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p... should be asked about that interview and his view on the fascist-tendencies of some tech billionaires in future business section interviews (I am always open to interviewing either of the Collison brothers)

The cautionary precedent is a story about George Bernard Shaw who, browsing in a second-hand shop somewhere, found one of his own works, inscribed for a friend "with esteem, GBS". Naturally, he bought it and returned it to the same friend, "with renewed esteem"
