Travel on well you greatest of all time. What a wonderful musician and person.
RIP Donal Lunny. I was lucky to have met him a few times and to see him play live. I took this video in the @RTEArena studio on 29 Nov 2018. A great man.

Orla O’Donnell completely destroyed Jim O’Callaghan’s smear about solicitors targeting rape cases in the Central Criminal Court yesterday on @morningireland. It’s outrageous that the Minister is engaging in cynical tactics such as this instead of sitting down to negotiate.

This is how you dismantle hate: When an Islamophobe bigot targeted his faith and questioned his loyalty, Abdul El-Sayed delivered a masterful response — invoking John F. Kennedy's historic legacy to firmly declare where his true allegiance lies.

Despite it’s rhetoric on Palestine, the Irish government is denying visas to Gazan students who’ve obtained scholarships to study in Irish universities.
Today, I urged Justice Minister Jim O’Callaghan to decide their appeals in time for it to matter to whether they can take up their offers.

"Carney saved the speech," one EPP lawmaker texts me.
"Without the ‘guests’ in her speech, it was a long technocratic list of announcements. Many of which we know will never see the day of light. I haven't seen such a low energy speech since Barroso."

Dolly Parton on supporting the LGBTQ+ community (2016): “I do not believe we should criticize and judge other people. If you’re the fine Christian you think you are, why are you judging people? I just think we should be more loving, more caring. We are who we are. If you’re gay, you’re gay. If you’re straight, you’re straight. You should be allowed to be how you are and who you are”

We couldn’t leave Dublin without paying tribute to Patrick O’Connell, the manager who led Betis to the Club’s historic LaLiga title in 1935.

Thanks very much to @RacingTV and @irishkor for helping to promote the Pat Smullen Race Day in aid of @cancertrials_ie with an interview last night @RoscommonRaces.
Worth listening to @francescrowley who spoke so well about the latest developments with pancreatic cancer.
