Ferriter did actually point to Lamberts living with Covid plan though Furlong, so wrong again. Unless criticism comes with a fully detailed plan for an alternative it's invalid is the new arguement then is it?

Tones is omnipresent tbf. Tbh, there's a weird Irish thing of trying to personalise public life. People seemed to attribute the entirety of NPHET's work to Holohan, and now that cracks are emerging, a proportion of people are unwilling or unable to accept that as they had personally lionised him. T...

Hell of a player and as mentioned a truly admirable human, to be the Aus captain and go and get arrested in protest at a mine expansion and deforestation and to take the stance about gay marrage takes some balls. Injuries limited his career, a few years with single digit appearances. Yeah, Australi...

Employ 600 people in a call centre - pay the business €800-900 per week per person. €27m to put in place those 600 people for a year. Doesn't seem a whole lot of money in the greater scheme of things. There seems to be genuine dismay amongst the government that they didn't ask for the money to have...

Just looked at "I am not your Negro" on BBC 4. Very powerful stuff, by a remarkable and great writer, public figure and activist.

I saw Fungie this year. The thought did occur to me when we were told he's been in Dingle for the life-expectancy of a bottle-nose dolphin.

There is so much wrong about what you have written but I have to do shit and get off my arse but suffice to say the notion the Shinners have been damaged is fanciful for a start I don't think they've been damaged with the voters but a few journalists have been grumbling about them.

The mother should be charged with endangering her child. If it was rancid enough to make the kid sick for two days, then there's no way they couldn't have known how funky it was, and she basically force-fed it to him. :nod: Yeah, it's an obvious point I would have thought, albeit I'd be curious abo...

In view of what the British are about to have pumping through their bodies post-Brexit and post a US trade deal, I'm pretty surprised you'd be so blasé about tainted food stuffs being on display.

It's simple and has been for ages only Leo the twat was more concerned about optics. The National Emergency Coordination Group need to be stood up and NPHET be much smaller subgroup that reports into them. The cult of Tony needs to end. I think you're right but for the wrong reasons. There hasn't b...

My wife is contact tracing at the moment and is getting increasingly f u cked off with the amount of people she speaks to who were symptomatic, and/or awaiting test results and still went on to have 10+ close contacts in that time.

Just think of the compo lads. The state being blatantly negligent by allowing us to work in their property without adequate PPE. <rubs hands together, and checks whether Chapter One will be open for Christmas> It's considered very poor form for barristers to sue.

Tesco might self-insure, not sure.

A lot of major entities do to avoid those sorts of issues.

Most of these are settlements. This is what Tesco offered, probably not much done by the Plaintiff to get that much.

He should try that on the pitch. He might manage a tackle or two.

Here, IRUA will probably know, but open question, how exactly do the academies, sub-academies, etc, work? What's the difference between the Academy and Sub-Academy?

Unnecessary use of "pretty much" there.

It looks like an abortion of a program.

Of course you do.
