A shout out to the ladies @ONeills1918 as work begins making scrubs for our #NHS staff. This clothing will protect & save lives. As the orders come in it's hoped those who lost their jobs last week will all be back to work soon. #COVID19 #UTV

00:00 - I am now aware that ITN had not cut back to the studio. I held it for as long as I could but that wasp was coming for my face. Please don't let this moment take away from the devastating tragedy @UTVNews was reporting on today in Fermanagh. 🙏🏻

- I've played hockey, football, rugby and more but for the 1st time at 38 yo I tried Gaelic football. It wasn't a sport I had the opportunity to play growing up & I love it. Even though I can't solo & it still takes me a while to figure out the score! #Sportis4All #MothersANDOthersDepressing and disgusting. Always watch GAA now thinking it’s the one sport I’d loved to have played but didn’t have any exposure to as a teenager. We need to stop politicising sport, in every way.
