Excellent morning at the Bystander Intervention conference in @ucc.ie reflecting on 10 years of the programme. Key message was that most men are decent and want to be empowered on how best to intervene safely in problematic situations.

Get Rachel running some elections. The way she organised them transfers at the end was incredible #TheTraitors

Shaft.

Shaft.

And the moral of the story is? It's always better to share than to shaft. #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

Stephen and Rachel from Traitors

What a great series, what a story, incredible final gameplay. Lying and betraying all round them while also being weirdly wholesome? #TheTraitors

I love Stephen. The face of a doomed WW1 officer and the wardrobe of John Travolta. #thetraitors

Does Stephen not realise he needs Rachel to win? If Jade goes out now, then it's 2v2. Just need to split Jack and Faaraz into not voting for the same person and they win. So Rachel should be creating suspicion on Stephen today in the castle so he gets a vote in the post roundtable vote #Traitors

“Are you keeping me in because we’re close?” - Jack, you’re still here because no-one remembers you exist unless they’re looking directly at you. You lack object permanence. #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUK

We spoke to @newstalkfm.bsky.social about the looming policy that will require people granted refugee status to wait for three years before bringing relatives including spouses and children.
