🇯🇵 80 years today since the atomic bomb in Hiroshima. 80,000 killed instantly & tens of thousands killed thereafter. We should reflect on its enormity. Honoured to meet survivor in poignant encounter. World leaders & influencers must do more to eradicate nuclear weapons of war.

John Hume's lifelong committment to peace & justice is widely lauded. By eschewing violence & bloodshed he devoted his life to political negotiation & discourse. He was truly a man of peace. We acknowledge his enduring legacy.
Five years ago today, John Hume passed away, but the principles he lived by feel more urgent than ever. He taught us that peace isn’t just the absence of war. It’s built on rights and in seeing the humanity in others.

Sunday evening music choice is a nod towards County Wexford, currently hosting the fleadh. It's The New Ross Choir "The Boys Of Wexford" on The Ed Sullivan Show way back in 1964, in honour of President John F Kennedy. via @YouTube.

Proud to see the great Daniel O'Connell honoured in my home County of Laois. The Liberator believed in the power & authority of parliament & negotiation over violence & war. His crowning achievement was a package of legal & human rights for Catholics denied for generations.
