I thought the reffing in Munster and Connacht games was very impressive.

Munster's fave ref was in RSA v Arg

I don't understand your euphemisms. Red squirrel ๐Ÿค” Camera ๐Ÿค” These i can guess at. But a "red squirrel in sligo" sounds really obscene.

Maybe the govt should give โ‚ฌ10k to our kids, who are quitting good jobs to emigrate because they cannot afford a home and cannot build a life here. Their landlord collects almost all their wages.

Glad it was settleable though, as the expression goes.

Similar to the way they went after the Beckhams. It's all about putting them in their place publicly. "How dare the think they'll get above the class they were born into."

The German police brutally assault an Irish woman protesting against Israel's genocide.

The German state is a disgrace.

It committed genocide against the Jewish people - far from its only genocide.

It forced Palestinians to pay the price, viciously silencing anyone who objects

In my town of 500 there were 8 pubs in 2000. Four have closed the other four close on different evenings each week.

Looks very similar to the Egham stone at Doonfeeney, County Mayo.

And it wasn't the Persians anyway it was the Assyrians. It was the Assyrians who captured them and had them weeping by the rivers of Babylon after the fall of Lachish, 701 BCE.
Just ask Boney M.

Sรฉamas Oโ€™Reilly: Ballymena violence is the result of politics based on scapegoating any โ€˜otherโ€™ "The central perversity of treating these people as anything other than racist thugs is only more transparent in Ballymena because they have so few migrants that any other excuse is patently absurd."

Referring to events in Ballymena as "disturbances" is a euphemism too far. We are witnesses to a pogrom. And it behoves us to say so, loud and clear.

I hope Millwall sue McCarthy. An East End working class club proudly from the Isle of Dogs now find their name dragged through some of the finest restaurants in these islands by association with the most mollycoddled professional sports team in the history of male modelling.
