I have no adequate words for the sadistic, deviant, evil men who ended this baby’s life in the most unspeakable ways possible, other than to say I sincerely hope they pay behind bars & don’t leave prison alive. Rest in peace, Preston Davey. You were let down despicably. 😢

Archbishop Eamon Martin: Racism a ‘grave sin’ that Christians ‘must stand strongly against’ irishnews.com/news/northern-…

Sinn Féin’s Willie Clarke is a perfect example of how the party is framing the Belfast attempted beheading. Instead of addressing immigration policy, vetting or how the attacker got here, the focus is repeatedly shifted to NHS workers and racism. It’s a manipulative form of framing. By constantly linking immigration to NHS staff, politicians ‘encourage’ people to associate immigration with the nurse who cared for them or the doctor who helped a loved one. The debate stops being about policy, vetting or numbers and becomes about personal feelings of gratitude. That’s an effective way of changing how people think about an issue without actually addressing the concerns being raised, shifting the debate from facts to emotions to avoid answering any real question……… maith thú 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

If you look into the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict you will also encounter The Muslim Brotherhood. It's also worth noting that when Egypt lost the Sini and Gaza to Israel, following the defeat of Arab nations that attacked Israel in 1948, Israel later offered the return of both the Sini and Gaza but the Egyptians didn't want Gaza. Fast forward and examine the tight border security constructed between Egypt and Gaza, due to the threat of terrorism. The pro-Palestinian narrative of today, is a Disneyfication of historical facts about the region and Islamist extremism. The narrative doesn't deal (at least not honestly) with such things as Palestinians being expelled from Kuwait in the 1990s, after they sided with the Iraqi invaders of the country, during the first Gulf War.

Ireland is being made to shrink its dairy herd, with healthy in-calf cows going to slaughter early, to satisfy a nitrogen figure set in Brussels. Start with how cruel the timing is. Barely a decade ago, when the EU scrapped its milk quotas in 2015, Ireland told its farmers to do the opposite. Expand. Grow the herd. Build the new parlour. The government's own strategy pushed dairy hard for export growth, and thousands of families borrowed heavily and did exactly as they were asked. Now the same establishment that cheered them bigger is ordering them smaller. The instrument is a rule that sounds technical and harmless. The EU caps the nitrogen that livestock manure may spread on the land. Ireland's grass-fed dairy farms, among the most efficient and lowest-carbon on earth, held a hard-won allowance to graze a little heavier. After a water-quality review, that allowance was cut, from 250 kilos of nitrogen a hectare down to 220, across great swathes of the country from 2024, and it has stayed under threat ever since, its conditions tightening at every review. To drop under the new line, a farmer has three doors. Find more land, ship his slurry away, or get rid of cows. Land is scarce and the squeeze itself sent rents soaring, so for many the only door left is the herd. The Irish Farmers Association reckoned an extra sixty nine thousand acres would be needed nationally just to stand still. One senator, a farmer himself, warned that up to forty one thousand cows, a great many of them pregnant, could be sent to slaughter to comply, and called it an animal welfare catastrophe in the making. Sit with that. Healthy, productive, in-calf cows, on some of the greenest grass in Europe, culled early because a stocking number on a form moved by thirty kilos. The very cows the nation was begging the farmer to buy ten years ago. This is what modern environmental policy looks like at the sharp end. A good cow loaded onto a lorry she never needed to be on, on a wet Tuesday in County Cork, to shift a figure in a spreadsheet.
