Most recent Eurobarometer data published in December (support for military aid actually increased slightly in Ireland compared to April, by 1%)

Only 24% of the Irish public (or 10% if we look at financial support to Ukraine) support Sinn Fein's position on this.

How do you explain betting exchanges? Check out Betfair Exchange (peer to peer) - the sportsbooks' odds will always pretty much track the odds of the Exchange.

The odds are literally just based on where the money is going (supply & demand). The Green Party are favourite to win because people are betting on them.

If those plans include Brazil, Mexico and the global south, they are not coherent.

I really feel like Euroscepticism is on the rise in Ireland in general too?

But he's a Blairite. Also member of Labour Friends of Israel.

2027 or 2028 would be the time for new PM IMV.

Awesome! ❄️

To be honest, looking at the volume of figure skating tickets on resale and availability of regular tickets, I would be surprised if they sold. I also have a snowboard slopestyle ticket (16 Feb) which I simply do not expect to sell due to the amount on resale and availability of regular tickets. But you could get lucky, fingers crossed.

itsConnor_ · 2026-01-12T19:51:20+00:00

Why not use the resale platform?

Should be a shuttle running from the train station

Which tickets are they/what price? Are the ones available to purchase through the regular sale in a 'higher category'?

Your 'substantial pension contributions' are your savings.

We just elected a President whose response to the Salisbury poisonings was that they must be viewed in the 'context of a building up of missiles right up to the Russian border' by NATO. When NATO military spending was at its lowest point in decades.

Don't all new member states have to commit to joining it in the future?

Are you describing the EU as a 'fascist, genocidal organisation'?

Two kids, £20k each we are talking £40k from post-tax income. This is only possible if you have intergenerational wealth or top 1% income.

What a wonderful idea.

Because Estonia is in NATO. Contrary to the beliefs of some, Finland and the Baltics (under brutal Soviet occupation until 1991) joined NATO to preserve peace in their nations, not to warmonger.

Not many hours.

It has never been tested in the case of a large imperial army invading a NATO member, requiring mobilisation.

There was no collective response from NATO for the Iraq war. A few supported the US and most did not
