Has any successful recipient ever demanded the peace prize? It just doesn't seem like the sort thing a peacemaker would do 🤷‍♂️

If she can represent clients on the opposite side of the ideological divide then she should be able to sign into law any legislation passed by the Oireachteas without delay or attachment of personal opinion.

Maybe not the worst thing.

Brian Caulfield: Now Metrolink is going ahead, what’s the next rail project for Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway? If Luas Finglas is delivered on time, there will have been a 15-year gap since the last Luas extension

Imagine if Ireland could lay rail tracks as quickly as it builds roads.... my article in the @irishtimes.com today

I thought Donald Trump might sweep the board this year.

“absent the AI boom we would probably have lower interest rates [and] electricity prices, thus some additional growth in other sectors. In very rough terms that could maybe make up about half of what we got from the AI boom.”

This is not good. It's killing growth everywhere else.

Emma. 80% legs!

But 15% on EU trucks, that was the deal, right? 😁

This is awful 😔

Europe is saying no to electric scooters. The data says not so fast. E-scooters may have been prematurely maligned. A new study suggests they are safer than electric bikes.

Across Europe, the electric-scooter backlash is in full swing.

But a new study found that the injury risk for e-scooters is actually 2.5 to 10 times lower than for e-bikes.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

New evidence strengthens the case for 30 km/h limits Across Europe, lower speed limits are proving to deliver safety, noise and quality-of-life benefits. In Wales and Amsterdam recent data reinforce that slower speeds can bring big benefits.

Hopefully it doesn't take 15 years for the US public to become fed up with the current regime in Washington.

I have to assume JR applications are inevitable but great news.

I'm sure uncontroversial comics like Jimmy Carr will be fine. 🫣

Hmm..I got a 16 in from the airport last night and it was definitely on the Transit App along with the 41 and the 19 (what route does that take by the way?)

Wait until they hear about car crashes and the speed cars do! #love30

A lot of it still has a very temporary appearance. Although some of the main cycling routes are now pretty good. I look forward to seeing more permanent looking infrastructure and urban realm improvements.

One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

I must have a terribly underdeveloped palate despite my best efforts 😆

I just hope they know how to differentiate between Capex and Opex!

We need lots of Capex.

I've had one corked bottle in a 40 year wine drinking career 😮

A reminder that this rally is happening this coming Thursday 2nd Oct.

Please support it if you can by joining us on the day or contact your local TDs & ask them to attend the Love 30 presentation in the AV room.

Bígí linn!

My first thoughts would be Switzerland or Canada.

Geneva has a head start.
