    As the powers at be have covered up this new #Banksy work, the only proper course of action by a concerned population is to spread the image as far and wide as we can before it disappears. #protest #Banksy #Freepalestine

    @AbramKedge@beige.party I don&#39;t get SNL full stop, it is not funny but then I don&#39;t get American comedy either. So it&#39;s not a surprise that I didn&#39;t think #SNLUK was funny. It didn&#39;t even raise a smile with me. I thought the whole thing was forced, why they had an American open the first UK show was a strange decision as well . I agree with you the whole thing was embarrassing. I can&#39;t imagine it will do that well in the UK - America humour doesn&#39;t travel.

    @somcak@beige.party Totally agree, you can&#39;t get your head around the fact that people were there over 5,000 years, moved those kerbstones and designed that art and it&#39;s still here. I am not ashamed to admit that there was a few tears when we stood inside that chamber in the dark.

    @MAJ1@beige.party Evening Maj - today was a bucket list moment if I am being honest. It was other worldly, I can&#39;t find the right words to describe how #Newgrange makes you feel. Yep, the holiday has peaked. Thank you - I will enjoy the rest of the break. I always enjoy my time in Ireland.

    Also from my trip to Newgrange, Co. Meath yesterday (Hi 👋🏻Mark) in our tour group there was a lovely couple from America. We started talking, the conversation started like most but then the lovely lady mentioned the troubles that America is currently experiencing - her whole demeanor changed. She became tearful and sad when talking about her friends who work hard having no food because of the ongoing shutdown. Also, she is frightened that her country won&#39;t recover from the tyrant.

    @disorderlyf@todon.eu I understand that not all Americans support this man and his clowns that run the government. They are at his mercy too. However the rest of the world can&#39;t assume that America will start to correct it&#39;s course in November, plans have to be made to remove American influence from Europe for security purposes. Never again can the person that sits in the Oval Office have this much power to wreck the world order.

    @capnthommo@c.im It is becoming more evident every day that the American is a cult of personality at this stage. They aren&#39;t to be takena seriously on the world stage especially that clown that is their Secretary of War!

    He threatens allies - maybe those allies should look to each other instead to heading to the court of Mad King Donald. A sit down with this man isn&#39;t worth anything anymore. Also, maybe just maybe the countries that that host military bases for them should ask a hard question - if he is prepared to attack Greenland on European soil, then why let him station troops in Europe? If he carries out his threat out to leave NATO - then demand he closes the bases and takes his soliders home.

    Maidin mhaith...a quick hello and thought before I toddle off to do some work. Can we all now agree that Trump is mad and has absolutely no clue how to end this war with Iran. He desperately needs someone to give him a way out because US petrol prices are starting to affect his approval ratings. I unfortunately watched the first 15 mins of #SNLUK. It wasn&amp;#39;t funny, the opening attacking Starmer was pitiful. There is a sketch were you can mock him for Trump but that wasn&amp;#39;t it!

    BBC NI has won the prize stating the bloody obvious! Of course it is #dysfunctional - mandatory coalition between Sinn Féin and the DUP does not work! Us Northern Ireland folk have to stop voting for these two parties if they won&amp;#39;t Reform #Stormont and let us have grown-up government here. The DUP have never come to terms with losing top spot. BBC News: Is the Northern Ireland Executive dysfunctional? BBC News - Is the Northern Ireland Executive dysfunctional? https://www.bbc.co.uk...

    We are currently on holiday in #Cavan at the moment but I wanted to share these photos with you all. We went on a guided tour of #Newgrange, Co.Meath* today. We were allowed into see the inner chamber. We stood inside a Neolithic Chamber that was built 5,200 years ago, which makes it older than Stonehenge and the Pyramids of Giza. There are no words to explain how that feels - we are merely a dot on the timeline of this earth! *for Mark 😉 #Newgrange #tomb #Ireland #Neolithic #Cavan

    Happy St Patrick&amp;#39;s Day ☘️☘️ from Northern Ireland were politicians who despise everything #irish at home even down to opposing the Irish language on signs and love nothing more than attacking Kneecap, a rap group that raps in Irish, are currently attending the American court of the Mango Mussolini celebrating everything #irish 🤷🏻‍♀️ The DUP &amp;amp; Ulster Unionists are happy to have their photos taken with a draft dodging convicted liar and felon.

    Who actually is the one that has weakened the &amp;#39;Special Relationship&amp;#39; - the threat to the UK in my opinion comes from America lead by Trump. Also, why should the UK aid America when their Commander in Chief insulted the ultimate sacrifice that 457 British personnel made in Afghanistan - &amp;#39;they stood a little back&amp;#39; according to Trump. It is pathetic the way that the British media goes on about the Special Relationship with America -it makes the British look patheti...

    If we want to normalise the debate concerning #immigration then the words that journalists use should be looked at. One journalist on the #BBCNews24 has just said &amp;#39;ex-pats&amp;#39; to describe those British/English people who have moved to Dubai, should they not be described as economic immigrants and in some cases tax dodgers!

    Maidin mhaith Some good news this morning! Congratulations to Hannah Spencer on making history last night. The Green Party win their first ever By-election. It wasn&amp;#39;t even close in the end... Hannah Spencer (Green) 14,980 (40.69%, +27.53%) Matt Goodwin (Reform) 10,578 (28.73%, +14.67%) Lesson for the day...Give people an alternative to the fascist message of Reform &amp;amp; they will vote for #Hope Comhghairdeas le Hannah Spencer #HannahSpencer #Greens #Hopenothate

    @Infoseepage @Geri Also why is Burnham seen as the great new hope? The party already had a chance to elect him leader and they didn&amp;#39;t take it. So maybe he isn&amp;#39;t a good as everyone calling for him to replace Starmer thinks he is. Maybe it&amp;#39;s about what the party stands for not the personalities that lead it! Another small thought to Labour...You&amp;#39;re not Reform!

    I have just heard Hannah Spencer&amp;#39;s winning speech that she gave last night, what struck me, is that she doesn&amp;#39;t sound like most politicians these day on TV. She sounds authentic. Hannah reminds me what a Labour politician should do! If Labour can&amp;#39;t do this, there is alternative to them - the Green Party. She apologised to her customers for not being able to fulfil commitments. No wonder the establishment are frightened... #Greens #HannahSpencer #Hopenothate

    Listening to #Kemi Badenoch moan and whine about the Green Party victory last night shows she is absolutely deluded. She speaks as if she hadn&amp;#39;t just overseen the #Tories worse by-election result in their history, only received 2% of the entire vote cast and to top it all they lost their deposit! The woman really does have delusions of grandeur. 🤭🫣🤦🏼‍♀️

    Maidin mhaith A small thought from me - this #Labour government have been extremely disappointing. However, on this current illegal war that Trump has started, the fact that #Starmer is getting attacked by the orange overbaked wotsit, then I would take it as a badge of pride. #Trump said we aren&amp;#39;t dealing with #Churchill here, no we aren&amp;#39;t. But then again, the RoW isn&amp;#39;t even dealing with George W Bush when dealing with this current US President. We have Benny&amp;#39;s...

    #Kemi is not sounding great here. She is trying to point score on a war. She isn&amp;#39;t listening and has just pi$$ed all over those worried about family stuck in the region because the overbaked wotsit being Benny&amp;#39;s poodle 🐩 #PMQs
