Sally Rooney: I support Palestine Action. If this makes me a โ€˜supporter of terrorโ€™ under UK law, so be it I would happily publish this statement in a UK newspaper โ€“ but that would now be illegal

Blarney, where ice cream can do a lot to erase the taste of a rock that thousands have kissed and licked before you.
And a best friend who won't steal your snack.

Cork's Harbour in Cobh - the second largest natural harbour on the planet, after Sydney's. It's the last land the Titanic saw. And it's where the survivors of the Lusitania arrived.

โ€œPray for the dead and fight like hell for the living!โ€ A modern-day mother brought her daughters to a Mother Jones workshop. Their future's in good hands.

If you're near Cork from 24-26 July, make some time to get to the Spirit of Mother Jones Festival. The woman who ended child labor and other abuses in the US was born in Cork. This annual festival celebrates her heritage.
