A hotel tax in Dublin city would be around €5 per night based on examples from other cities which is less than a return fare to Wicklow or Kildare. Not to mention at least 1.5 hrs commuting. A completely bad faith argument from Patrick O'Donovan.

BBC Verify investigation by @olgar.bsky.social , me, Olga Malchevska and Matt Murphy into exactly how thousands of homes in Mariupol are being seized and transferred to Russians. Ukrainians can try to get their homes back but there’s a catch… www.bbc.co.uk/news/resourc...

Ein Freibad in Sachsen-Anhalt wurde saniert. 7 Wärmepumpen und Solaranlage sorgten am 1. April für 24 Grad Wassertemperatur. Und wir mussten uns 3 Jahre anhören, was diese Wärmepumpe für eine vernichtende Ideologie ist. Ich will das nie wieder hören.

A huge honour to deputise for the Lord Mayor of Dublin at the Rail Link Networking event in Dublin. A first of its kind in bringing together rail industry leaders in Ireland, UK and Europe together with state agencies to Dublin to connect, share ideas and learn about the latest innovations.

L’INVISIBLE- opera or rather „trilogie lyrique“ by Aribert Reimann based on plays by Maurice Maeterlinck. Great performance tonight in Frankfurt, Germany. Beautiful music and an interesting overarching topic: #death!
