When you look at it like this you really see that Dublin as a Capital had nothing to do with benefiting Ireland and everything to do with extracting wealth to England. It’s like a funnel

Frank Gibney's vision for a united Ireland in 1944 involved a new capital in Co Longford, wind farms on the boundaries of major towns, and a rebalancing between urban and rural industrialisation. Have to give him credit for the pure ambition!

Did you know that the Rory Gallagher Music Library has over 48,000 CDs, DVDs, sheet music, and music books for you to borrow?
Call in and pause to admire Rory Gallagher's replica stratocaster on the way!

"Everybody else may be an asshole, but I'm not" is such a great response to being told the lie that everybody else is willing to work for free

In just four minutes this extraordinarily eloquent athlete explains the despair and the elation of professional cycling, all the reasons why we wonder at the powerful drama playing out on our TV screens every day of @LeTour. Thank you @matmohoric.

There isn't one quote we could pick out of this interview to do it justice. If there is one interview you watch today, make it this one with @matmohoric.
On n'a pas su choisir une seule citation qui rendrait hommage à l'interview. Du coup si vous devez écoutez un seul interview en entier aujourd'hui, faites en sorte que ce soit celui de @matmohoric.

This is the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, It cost €1.34bil to build and that was including reclaiming the foundation from the ocean.
The National Children’s Hospital built in the centre of Dublin is costing double that at least, We are been ripped off by gangsters.
