Ferrari has just officially unveiled its first ever all-electric car, called the Ferrari Luce. • Starting price: $640,000 • Interior co-designed with Apple's former head of design, Jony Ive • Range: 280 miles (expected EPA) • Peak charging speed: 350kW • 122 kWh battery • 1,050 horsepower • 0-60mph: 2.4s • 800v • Four-door four-seater • Four electric motors • OLED screens • Weight: 4,982 lbs • Front motors spin to 30,000 rpm, rears hit 25,500 rpm • Car uses an accelerometer to capture real vibrations from the electric motors & rear chassis.

The 8 year deemed disposal rule is unfair and has to go

I have resigned my membership of Aontú. I have great respect for the many wonderful people I met and worked with in the party — hardworking, passionate individuals who genuinely want to see our country steered in a better direction, both locally and nationally. I joined Aontú because I believed its leadership truly listened to grassroots members and that policy and strategic decisions, at both local and national levels, reflected that input. Unfortunately, this has not been my experience. Over time, I came to the view that the party operates in a far more centralised and tightly controlled manner than I had anticipated. Rather than being the grassroots-led movement it presents itself as, I found decision-making to be concentrated within a small, left-leaning, group at the top. I dedicated significant time and energy to Aontú because I believed it valued internal democracy and meaningful member engagement. However, I have found that loyalty to leadership often takes precedence over open debate, initiative, and the raising of legitimate concerns. In my view, internal democracy should be the pillar around which any political party functions. Ireland is facing multiple national challenges, and I cannot in good conscience remain part of a party where I no longer have confidence in how it is governed. I sincerely wish the many dedicated members I worked alongside every success in the future. I now look forward to working with people who genuinely want to see our country steered in a decent direction — people who are prepared to stand up on key issues, encourage open discussion, and put principle above internal politics. I am immensely grateful to all those who have supported me in my political career so far and for every vote I have received at election. Thank you. I look forward to working with like-minded individuals to continue the journey for a better Ireland. Aisling Considine

🇮🇪 Sinéad Gibney, a member of parliament for the Social Democrats, has suggested Ireland consider the "nationalisation of online platforms." Gibney argued a compromise might be the state controlling the algorithms of tech platforms to ensure "social cohesion." Follow: @europa

Primrose Hill will be closed on New Year’s Eve this year ⛔There will be fencing, security and a police presence to prevent access. If you had planned to head there to get a view of the central London fireworks, please make alternative arrangements.

The horrific incident on the train in Huntingdon is deeply concerning. My thoughts are with those injured and affected. I am grateful to our emergency services for their swift response. I am in close contact with the Met and transport authorities to ensure all necessary support is provided. Anyone planning to travel on LNER services today should check before they travel.

BREAKING! Bank of Ireland and AIB made nearly €5 Billion in profit last year and paid almost NOTHING in taxes. AIB paid 0.3% in tax and BOI paid less than 2%! The two banks avoided paying over half a billion euros in taxes that could be helping workers and families

“Better for Government.. to build its own public housing, keep and maintain it and get at least 100 years of use from it, than pay twice or three times the price of the dwelling in HAP to a private landlord and still not own it.”⁦@IrishTimes⁩ irishtimes.com/opinion/lette…
