Anyone who can convincingly pretend to be @AlisonMoyet on twitter deserves the kudos though.
Is it just me or does Ireland look like a cross between a green parrot and a cute puppy?
When Irish skies are smiling...
This cloud-free view of Ireland, the Emerald Isle, was captured from space by our Aqua satellite back in 2010. Happy #StPatricksDay!

The photo is almost completely free of clouds, except for a few wisps in the bottom-left, so the lush greens of the island stand out against the dark-blue water surrounding it.

Of course it did. The radical minority is after all a minority.

Right on Dolly, as usual!!!:)
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
While Dolly Parton has previously made a famous quote regarding, if she hadn't been born a girl, she'd have been a drag queen, the quote in the tweet doesn't appear to be any known public statement from Dolly Parton.

Now THIS is transphobia, homophobia, just plain intolerance. Honestly, is there nothing more harmless and joyful than a drag queen? Come on! Reading books to kids folks! Opening minds and hearts!
Can people please come collect their transphobic and homophobic family members? Pack of hate promoting projectors outside Tūranga this morning. Not the pale stale male of the group
ALT Small group of people holding signs claiming that drag queens and LGBTQIA+ people are groomers and pedophiles. A large banner reads: drag queens groom kids. There are approximately 12-14 men pictured, and 2-3 women, all middle aged + and white.
Well said. It isn't always about transphobia.
Exactly! Let the Cis-women athletes have a voice and not be shut down by extreme politics. Facts only! Expecting women to accept being beaten up by biological men in an already dangerous sport to satisfy trendy PC ideals is horribly selfish and misogynistic.
Fighters know the facts on the safety issues. You can't endanger an entire group of people to satisfy an unrealistic deluded minority. I am sure many in the trans community understand the anatomical facts and wish no harm to anyone either. Not everything is transphobic.

Back on here after 24+ hours off, and I see it has been decreed by a hateful mob that Richie, who does amazing work for and with women, must be stoned for this blasphemous statement - which I am sure the vast majority of people not on here would think is 100% reasonable. Gross.

To all those who took part in cancelling Richie Hardcore - what do you do for vulnerable women outside of your comfy bubbles? What have you ever done to prevent sexual violence? Because snarky & being insufferable on Twitter doesn’t count. You should be ashamed.

One of the wackiest things about the Richie Hardcore cancelling is that no one in our media has dared to question if his opinion - that transwomen shouldn’t compete in women’s kick-boxing for safety reasons - might be completely reasonable.
Seems a simple fix too. Just raise the necklines surely? But when I watched this fight I was thinking only the women fighters have to deal with constant distraction from wardrobe malfunctions.

Why are anti-vaxxers so poor at critical thinking? Being vaxxed makes you more likely to die of Covid? FFS. The stats say Covid kills mostly elderly infected. Most of the country is vaxxed. So most of the deaths will be vaxxed people. Because so few are UNvaxxed. More fake news.
