Simon Harris – who recently criticised jobseekers and NGOs – and his parents won’t answer questions about whether the Harrises were eligible for a state-backed housing scheme that saw their €600,000 home sold and leased back to them after they’d accumulated mortgage arrears.

Arsenal win at Sunderland. Get called boring.
Chelsea go there and lose.
Arsenal win at Forest. Get called boring.
City go there and lose.
Chelsea draw at home to Hull.
Arsenal beat them. Get called boring.
See how it works yet?

Haha. So after all that they still got it wrong.
Excellent work all round.
It is going to be very controversial if Arsenal do not win this game against Hull.
Kai Havertz should have got a VAR penalty regardless of the offside. #ARSHUL
My worst memory of Larry Donnelly was a 2024 Euro election debate he moderated in NUIG when he refused to ask candidates my question about stopping the abuse of refugees on Europe's borders and instead asked a racist anti-immigration question

I assumed it was made up. It's not.
Apple Maps has reinstated old imagery of Gaza.
So all the buildings still exist.
The left is Apple and the right is Google of Rafah, a city that is entirely "erased" by the IOF.
What stage of propaganda for Israel is this?

Sometimes you need haram ball to end 14 years without a league win at Anfield.
I'll take that. What a defensive performance from Arsenal.
Over 20 years without the great James Richardson presenting Italian football on terrestrial TV and I can't even watch it now because I'm in Portugal 😭
The 'Halloween derby' is coming... and it's such a crucial match for both teams! 🎃
Watch AC Milan vs Inter Milan on BBC Two and iPlayer tonight from 7.40pm

A squad with Fernandes, Martinez and Maguire as its supposed "leaders" is always doomed to failure. United won't change until they get rid of them
Manchester United fans defiant. Manchester United players defeatist. One day, United players will take responsibility, and will play with the commitment of their fans. Carlos Baleba, Harry Maguire and Lisandro Martinez failed to react for Chelsea’s first. Martinez so unprofessional for Chelsea’s second goal, elbow, second yellow, pen, shocking behaviour.
Michael Carrick has his flaws but he’s been let down by his players. United fans have been let down by their players. United can change the head coach but they have to change many of the players, recruiting stronger characters. Players who take responsibility, who care for the club. #CHEMUN #MUFC

Lisandro Martinez doing what Lisandro Martinez does. He's lucky he's at United because no serious club would have him anywhere near the squad. #bbcfootball

Oíche Shamhna shona duit! / Happy #Halloween to you!
Or as we call it, Samhain, where it all began over 2,000 years ago.
Yes, Halloween began in #Ireland .
Turnips were carved into Jack O Lanterns. This pic is from the National Museum is a turnip carved in #Fintown #Donegal in the '40's.

The best part of this episode is when Frasier tells Patrick Stewart's character Alistair that he's not gay, and Alistair asks him if three weeks on Capri at Bertolucci's villa might change his mind.

"Remove the Stone of Shame."
"Whoo-hoo!"
"Attach the Stone of Triumph.

This is really poor by @FA. The governing body is supposed to protect players. It should be disputing this regulatory commission verdict by members drawn from the FA judicial panel. Max Dowman could have suffered a bad injury to his standing leg from a dangerous challenge which went unpunished. Arsenal 16-year-old shouldn’t have reacted but his frustration was understandable. Some other players might have rolled around and ensured a bad challenge was punished. Dowman didn’t. He doesn’t stay down. The FA should have shown some understanding towards Dowman. Instead, it has suspended him for three games. FA priorities all wrong: tolerating a poor challenge and some weak refereeing but punishing a kid who objected to a bad challenge that could have dealt him a serious injury. Protect players. #AFC
To all my Irish friends you better get out and watch I Love Boosters, it's going to be great!
