Landscape ecological restoration. It can be done but we need to get a move on. This is Carrifran where the sheep were removed to allow this native woodland to take over.

Yeah you need to phase in the badger.

Iran war a 'wake-up call' on EU fossil fuel dependency, Harris warns The Finance Minister said there has been β€˜not enough’ diversification in how Ireland and Europe sources its energy since the war in Ukraine.

Me after having slept through half a dozen alarms: Wow, what a wake-up call this is

Point 4 are clearly Israel's goals and they've been foolish enough to be led by them

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

Bus stop taxi lane bypass that strangely seems to have avoided being labelled a social injustice

People find the stupidest things to be wrong about. You'd be opposed to gears and non wooden wheels if you were born in a different era

Aren't there a good few examples of words of Norman French origin in Hiberno-English?

And of course a gurrier is a rough individual in modern Hiberno-English. From the same French root too apparently

The 'can't someone else do it' attitude again. Ask someone to get out of their car on a dual carriageway is madness
