A lot of hand wringing this morning from some politicians who helped stoke the fire and helpedescalate division and hate. This morning we have seen the aftermath of that division. Shame on them.

#BBCBreakfast: "... families had to be led to safety through the flames.. it wasn't just homes, cars were also torched by young masked men in these predominantly unionist streets, but the target here was immigrants.." This is what the likes of Reform are inciting.

Racist pogroms indiscriminately attacking migrants and non-white people. Ugly, fascist, violence on our island that we can not ignore. This has to be challenged and defeated. The trade union movement needs to step up to protect and unify working people, migrant and Irish.

@RTEsport @rtenews When you can't play your home games at home because of the depth of opposition at home, you shouldn't play at all.

More parliamentary questions just dropped. When will I get my lazyboy chair? Will my lazyboy chair be comfy? Is my lazyboy chair ready yet? What colour is my lazyboy chair? Are you aware I ordered a lazyboy chair? Can I have my lazyboy chair now? Is the lazyboy chair nice?

The science behind the weird Atlantic 'cold blob' explained (in under 15 minutes). It's the only part of the planet which hasn't warmed in the last hundred years, but cooled! And it's a bad sign. #AMOC youtube.com/watch?v=ULJXqO…

Firstly, I want to thank Anita Little for being incredibly brave and for coming forward at such a significant personal cost. It has undoubtedly affected both her career and, I am sure, her mental well being.

In Sunday Business Post, Helen McEntee tells us the "legal position regarding goods differs significantly from ... services" in relation to the Occupied Territories Bill. How so? The International Court of Justice was clear states should "prevent trade or investment relations”.

A Welsh bloke has turned up in our garden. He says the garden is his because he’s a descendant of an Ancient British tribe who lived there. Fair enough.

Use less electricity. Shift your consumption. Adapt your behaviour. The EU Commission wants households to reduce electricity use during peak hours in order to free up electricity for AI data centers. Once again, the people are asked to pay the price while corporations profit.
