Media’s pro-Western bias is often blatant, sometimes subtle but always omnipresent.
Below is an example of the latter.

Cycling out of #Sligo to a stormy wild camp at the haunted Coopers lodge in the Ox mountains - day 1 of following #Eurovelo 1 to Westport in which I explore just who the Coopers were as I cycled through what was their vast Cromwell given estates

When you cycle the road from #Cahersiveen to #Glenbeigh on Eurovelo 1 you are following in the footsteps of the very local Fenian insurrection of Feb 1867

A famine graveyard & twisty road just outside #Drumshanbo in Co #Leitrim. It’s on the Kingfisher cycling route which I did as part of a cycle camping tour from Dublin via the canals to the Shannon. This section of the route follows the Iron mountains east of Lough Allen

Cycling #eurovelo 1 #Kenmare to #Waterville by eBike - it takes the inland route that’s off the Ring of Kerry but includes three spectacular passes on very quiet roads - so quiet there are no shops or pubs directly on the route

Jaguar Land Rover to resume some manufacturing after cyber-attack It's understood that production will resume at the Wolverhampton engine facility on 6 October.

It's so _unfortunate_ when short-term cost savings (fire your IT staff and outsource to Tata) become long-term costs (oops, you've been out of business for a month due to inept infosec) www.bbc.com/news/article...

I'm a bit of a connoisseur of Western Special Forces operations and one common thread running through their adventures is that these highly trained "Operators" usually end up torturing and killing farmers, labourers and/or passers by as part of the job.

This guy is like one of 4 Americans who actually went and got their REAL ID and immediately they said it was a fake.

Just so everyone knows when they toss your ass in a truck it won't matter what passport or identification you have they'll throw it in the street and you're gone

Herschel Grynszpan - Wikipedia

Hearing this morning of the assassination of two Israeli embassy staff reminded me that the Nazi excuse for Kristallnacht was a similar assassination of a German embassy staffer in Paris by the then 17 year old Herschel Grynszpan en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hersche...

Any media outlet that posted the news of two young boys who drowned in Donegal - who happened to be seeking asylum with their families - on the most toxic platform in the world without closing comments, should be ashamed of itself. Makes you physically ill to look at some of the comments.

Great video on the new Dublin Port Greenway as it highlights the impact it will have on cycling tourists arriving to Ireland, and how they will be able to continue on their journey to the Eurovelo 2 Route / Royal Canal Greenway, and on to further connections across the country.

This is a 12km loop cycle with all but 600m on local roads in #Connemara about 4km from #Clifden where you could rent bikes - the YouTube of the route ends with the route from Clifden. Or park at the Marconi loop walk
