RT @DublinNuj: Staff at RTÉ Dublin stood again today in solidarity with media workers under attack from Israel and in outrage at the resume…

🌹 PES Deputy Secretary General @saravanbuer personally congratulated @labour on their fantastic General Election results in Ireland - nearly doubling seats in Dáil Éireann from 6 to 11! 🙌 In Dublin, with Billie Sparks and @davekitching we discussed the current state of play, cooperation & shared priorities for the future. #BuildingBetterTogether

It was a pleasure to catch up with @saravanbuer from @PES_PSE in Dublin yesterday. It was also nice to have a lot of positive points to talk about 🌹

I’m proud to call Dónal a friend & someone who has taught me a lot over the years. He deserves much better than this.

Sorry to hear of the passing of Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh. I don’t think anyone captured the joy of sport the way he did. A true great! GAA commentator Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh dies aged 93 via @RTENews rte.ie/news/ireland/2024/062…

I was in the EP in Strasbourg last February. All Irish MEPs made themselves available for interview bar Clare Daly & Mick Wallace. I went to Daly's office and asked if she was free for coffee & an interview. She told me "Absolutely not" and that I had no right to be there

Israeli spokesperson having a totally normal one on RTÉ. Fair play to @SarahAMcInerney

This is fairly hilarious!
