Hugh I am a huge fan of the Sunday Business Post, its journalism and I have a yearly subscription. I am not voting for SG, but I feel this is a nonsense piece and the tee up it got. It references his car going 5-10mph and tipped someone else and his insurers paid out. Relevance?

Last nights images of Children asleep in a Garda station. Is this an Ireland for All??... its time for FG to go. FF should not renegotiate the C&S deal. Cannot understand why the Party continues to prop Leo up. Images a shocking indictment on our society!
Homeless crisis, housing crisis, crisis amongst mid mgmt in Gardai, crisis in health service and yet FF remain content to prop up Leo and the rest of FG. Surely we must aspire to better? I was against this c+s deal in 2016 and even more so now.

Sad to hear of the passing of Noel Whelan. He was exceptionally generous of his time with me when I was in UCD and we stayed in touch ever since. Reading a lot about how good an analyst and commentator he was, but more than that, he was genuinely a nice person. Sleep well Noel.

As someone who grew up in the late 80’s and 90’s, Jack Charlton defined a childhood. His team, the backdrop of Put Em Under Pressure (Our wedding song 😛) and the pure joy he brought to the people at a time when a country never needed it more. RIP Big Jack
