31.07.75 Buskhill, Co Down. Remembering the Miami Showband, those who died, survived, and all affected by the massacre and the long crusade for justice. Thoughts and prayers to all, and especially Stephen Travers for his love and tireless work for his band mates. 🙏❤️

Ah no! Go well, Glen. Your music will forever hang over Grafton St. Thank you for it all.🙏 Ar Dheis Dé go Raibh a Anam. Ní bheidh a leithéid arís ann.

Comhghairdeás Maigh Eó! The curse broken after 75 years. @thehibees.bsky.social waited 114 years - so can imagine the joy out west tonight! Our Lady of Knock will be dancing at the end of the runway at Ireland West 💚❤️ Delighted for Andy Moran who was so good for @Leitrimgaa #allirelandfinal #gaa

if I did not want to be casually labelled a nazi I would simply not be a nazi and hang out with nazis

Reform UK MSP Thomas Kerr has insisted politicians who 'casually label their opponents' as Nazis 'cheapen the Holocaust' and 'undermine the promise of never again' in response to violence erupting in Glasgow This is despite far-right demonstrators performing Nazi salutes at Glasgow Green

Despite my grá mór for Ciarraí, got to support Maigh Eo and Andy Moran after 75 years of the curse! ❤️💚 #thewestsawake #allirelandfinal #gaa

Sorry to hear of the death of the BBC's Edward Stourton. "Cruel Crossing" about the escape routes from Hitler over the Pyrenees was a brilliant read, and he wrote with great insight about Catholicism. A highly regarded member of the "old brigade". RIP🙏

Felicidades y Gracias Lionel Messi. The greatest footballer, but more importantly, the greatest role model, possessing the class to show youngsters you can be a superstar without acting like a complete arse. 🙌🇦🇷

Fab end to the week! 8.5K at Edinburgh Castle singing Woo Woos in "Real Gone Kid" then mass rendition of "Dignity" and reminder of why "Chocolate Girl" is one of my all time faves! @deaconbluemusic.bsky.social rock cos they love their music - no wonder Scotland is proud of them! Thank you guys! 🙏

Genuinely upset at death of Gary Sobers. Beyond doubt the greatest cricketer of my lifetime. More importantly, he showed you can be hero and legend and not completely lose the run of yourself. Privileged to have seen him play. A proud, decent representative of Barbados and West Indies. Go well!!🙏

55 years ago this week - with pal Steve - first saw James Taylor (with Carole King ) at Manchester Free Trade Hall. Delighted Steve was there with us again tonight, in the stunning surroundings of #edinburghcastle. James was superb, representing the best of America! Love the man!!!

Ádh mór agus míle buíochas to Áine Lawlor of #RTE who for 42 years has represented the highest integrity in current affairs, political and news broadcasting. A godsend to those of us outwith Ireland, who could always depend on her incisive and balanced reporting. Go n-éirí an bóthar leat!

Don't tax the rich. Don't fix Brexit. Everything will be fine. The Labour Party continues its decline into errelevance.

"Manchesterism" is the UK's new big thing. Unemployment in Manchester 6.5% Unemployment in Scotland 4.3% Child poverty in Manchester 37% Child poverty in Scotland 21% But Manchester DOES have loads of empty luxury flats. Seems the UK needs less Manchesterism and more ScotGov.

My first political hero. Still an inspiration. 6.06.68. Never forgotten, always remembered. 🙏 #bobbykennedy

Totally niche again, but given I follow quite a lot of Italians I thought it was worth a try. I'm looking for anyone who really loved Pinocchio as a child - someone for whom it has a special significance for any reason, or who has a story connected with it. I'd be grateful for RTs. Thank you.

Now ...breathe @liammcilvanney.bsky.social Oh ye of little faith!!! Well done Killie. Pies remain! 🙌🥧

Stunningly good at @lyceumedinburgh.bsky.social - tour de force from @dawnsteele1.bsky.social enhanced by music from Ricky Ross - about a lot more than football. Totally hits the spot. Highly recommended. #blackdiamondsandthebluebrazil

Anas Sarwar up until yesterday. This election isn't about Starmer, it's about casting judgement on the SNP and making me first minister. Anas Sarwar today - it's all Starmer's fault.

We have a special word for Havering in Scotland. It's Havering.

Another one off the bucket list! Super concert from Rodney Crowell who was in grand form at Queens Hall Edinburgh - extra bonus of "Pancho and Lefty" as encore! ❤️

Big shout out to @thehibees.bsky.social Academy - eight graduates won league winners medals today. Well done to all and to coaches through the years. 💚🙌

Teacher hat on! Delighted to see Jamie Gullan/Ruari Paton win Championship with @stjohnstonefc.bsky.social . Among first lads I worked with at @thehibees.bsky.social Education & Welfare, can't claim part in footballing success, but great to see hard working, focussed, nice guys' success. 🙌

Feliç San Jordi to all celebrating in Catalunya and beyond. Dia del Llibre i de la Rosa! 🟥🟨🟥🟨🟥🟨🟥🟨

Remembering all who lost their lives at Hillsborough on this day in 1989, their family and friends and all who have suffered since through the attitude of the State. #jf97💙❤️ 💚

The war in the Persian Gulf and the jet fuel shortage it created exposed the closure of Grangemouth oil refinery last year as a dangerous act of folly. I’ve written for the Times explaining why refining capacity is a crucial national infrastructure central to our energy security.
