- The strongest minute of current affairs TV since #Corona19 started. Well done @maitlis and all at #Newsnight
00:00 - Yet another wonderfully crafted letter by a judge to a child at the centre of a case I’ve been involved in.
- 3 of the biggest idiots on the planet.
- The mob that turned up to protest inside the 4 Courts this morning prevented our office from safely bringing an urgent application on behalf of a child with special needs. So we will have to come back and try again tomorrow. Thanks for that 🤯
- I would campaign with every fibre of my being for this guy to be the next Irish President"It's not just #COVID19 that is killing people, it's underprivilege, it's lack of access, it's years of living with health conditions that haven't been properly managed because of the colour of your skin, or your ethnicity, or your social group"- @DrMikeRyan #HealthForAll
00:00 - Does anyone else find the phrase ‘he had an underlying condition’ as cold as the ‘he was known to the gardai’ one?
- When David Trimble learnt that Martin McGuinness was seriously sick he wrote him this letter. We really could do with more of this open civility, acknowledgment of someone else’s contribution and basic decency in our political life today
- Bono gets his reward for saying feck all about the human rights abuses in Gaza and in Israel.
- That’s the best speech Leo Varadkar has ever given. Content, tone, explaining carefully the rationale, displaying great human empathy. Proper appreciation of frontline workers in this great fight. Irrespective of political outlook it is time to come together as a great nation.
- I met a really dedicated teacher today and asked him how the back to school prep work was coming along. His reply was revealing: ‘The whingers are whinging and the doers are doing’. Always good to get inside insights.
- Michael D didn’t bother with the decluttering of his desk for his famous visitor 😂😂😂
