GERRY ADAMS: Reject Dublin government's shameful betrayal of sacred GPO site

THE Dublin GPO and the streets and laneways around it are forever linked with the Easter Rising of 1916. This is a battlefield site of major historic and international significance which successive Irish governments have failed to develop properly. Successive promises of investment and planning in Moore Street have come to nothing. Successive governments have reduced the National Monument to four houses, leaving the rest of the historic area to be destroyed by a London based developer.

ROBIN LIVINGSTONE: Kneecap and Bob Vylan take the rap – it's a familiar old story

IF I tell you that I’m going to explain my feelings about Kneecap and Glastonbury by way of celebrity paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, you may raise an eyebrow, but try to stick with me and we’ll see how we get on.

'Force of nature' Galvin at the heart of RTÉ Noraid film

THE RTÉ documentary 'Noraid: Irish America and the IRA' was something that needed to be made. Despite its sensationalist title it is a sensitive two-parter that breaks with tired formats and relies entirely on archive materials, with primary interviews.

This programme inserts itself as unique, fresh and thought-provoking.

This was in the wake of both countries breaking the ceasefire he had encouraged.

ROBIN LIVINGSTONE: The Orange Order doesn't like Catholics. Okay, so what about women?

IT is of zero importance to BBCNI, UTV, the Belfast Telegraph and the News Letter that the Orange Order literally exists because it doesn’t like the Church of Rome. Every year the broadcasters do happy-clappy round-ups of parades across the North, studiously avoiding those aspects of the parades that ensure the pubs of Donegal and the beaches of Benidorm are packed in July.

DÚLRA: House martins are a pure joy – just ask a Robin

AN enriched life – isn’t that what we all strive for? Whether it’s sitting down on the settee to watch a good film, going to a gig or for a meal, or just a walk in the park, it’s often that wee bit extra that makes the difference. And sometimes, if you’re lucky, that wee bit extra comes free-of-charge and without you even asking for it.
