They are clearly a better team with demonstrably more brain cells.
Another dire drubbing. Come on @englandcricket - we need a better fight than this. Australia aren’t a better team, they’re just playing with more brain-cells - which given they’re Australians, is inexplicable. Wise up, fast.

@GeorgeKirov1 @ProfRobHoward @wendyburn Anyone who has experienced post-partum psychosis or witnessed it firsthand will be very disturbed and saddened that any psychologist could demonstrate such a blatant lack of understanding of this complex, ravaging, and dangerous, illness.

It is interesting that Jeremy Corbyn has been an MP for 42 years and led the opposition for 5 years. He's been on Question Time once. Nigel Farage, 44 times. Our Media is corrupt, corrupt to the core.

You are Ireland: ✅ failed to reach finals 11 times since 2004, including 7 of the last 10 finals ✅ twice finished last in finals in 20 years ✅ haven’t won in 30 years ✅ stormed out in a racist hissy fit because you can’t bear losing to Israelis
We are Ireland. The country tied for the most wins, the only one to ever win three in a row and our capital city Dublin has hosted the contest the most times. Sure Sweden may break our win record soon, and we aren’t as loved as Italy, but at least we leave with integrity.

Australian standards. New sanctions on Afghanistan for “oppression of women and girls, and in undermining good governance or the rule of law”. No sanctions on Israel for “slaughtering women and girls, and in undermining good governance or the international rule of law”.

For those sick and tired of Thatcherite (neoliberal) fantasies about us all being 'better off these days', here are a few indisputable facts. I'll keep this as short and simple as possible - sorry about the 'averages', but there's a brief disaggregation below. In the 1970s,

@joannamoncrieff Diagnosis needs reform and needs to be augmented by staging to achieve proportional treatment & better outcomes. However the surge in youth MH conditions & need for care is real & corroding society globally @TheLancet Causes need to be understood & health care boosted @orygen_aus

The surge in mental ill health is hugely distressing. That’s why I’ve commissioned a review to find out what’s driving it, says health secretary Wes Streeting

Once again Ireland leads the way in taking on apartheid regimes. First Britain, then South Africa and now Israel. Well done Ireland. 🇮🇪
Ireland will not take part in the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 after it was confirmed that Israel would be allowed to participate in the competition. Spain and the Netherlands have also confirmed that they have withdrawn from the contest. https://t.co/blVQGFh4Kb

The foreign minister of Israel believes he has moral standing to apportion shame and “disgrace” on other nations, incl Ireland, for withdrawing from a song contest. — 70,000 Palestinians dead (est.). — Hunger as weapon of war. — PM wanted for war crimes.
I welcome the decision of the European Broadcasting Union. I am ashamed of those countries that chose to boycott a music competition like Eurovision because of Israel’s participation. The disgrace - is upon them.

He gave away more than eight billion dollars & died with practically nothing to his name. This is the extraordinary story of Chuck Feeney, a man who could have lived in palaces but chose a simple rented apartment and a $15 plastic watch. Feeney built his fortune by co-founding

Detoxing heavy metals is imperative for everyone due to the many sources of them in our environment. Dr. Clark's two supplement kit has cilantro, EDTA, Shilajit and more to detox heavy metals, and an accompanying mineral supplement to restore lost minerals from cleansing.

@CelticClubMelb has delivered what members asked for - a high quality new venue as focal point for events and warm hospitality. There were significant set up costs but the financial trajectory is very sound going forward &break even or better is projected for this financial year.

Can you even believe this @abcnews refused a $85K settlement & instead hired a US law firm with a reputation for anti-union practices to defend it in the Lattouf unfair dismissal case. $2.6m for a law firm with a reputation for anti-workers rights practices! AND THEY LOST!

I have never encountered the slightest hint of anti semitism in Ireland. Israeli elites seem determined to defame our country because a majority of Irish citizens oppose Israel’s brutal attacks on Palestinians.
Ireland should show some humility. Its problem is that it’s infested with antisemitism, not that Israel is calling it out.

In my 44 years in Irish diplomacy, I can truly say that I never heard any politician or official express antisemitic views. Of course, there are people on the edges of our society who express vile hatred towards various targets including Israel but they are not representative.

I'm 64. I'm a British Jew All my life, I wrestled with this question: How could millions of ordinary people have participated in or enabled the Holocaust? NOW, when I see the behaviour of the British politico-media elites in relation to the Gaza GENOCIDE, I think I understand

Must have been good craic: Celtic Club loses $1 million https://t.co/5dKbA4Ksbb Continuing deeply disappointing misinformation from The Age’s gossip column on what it is in fact a v successful turnaround @CelticClubMelb strongly supported by the vast majority of members at AGM.

The club insists that things are all going to plan, but it’s got some work ahead to get out of the red.
