There’s a worrying tendency in recent reporting to portray Irish as not belonging to the working class. As someone who started life in a Deis Gaelscoil, the question is why certain communities are not being given the same educational opportunities and what can be done about it.

We are delighted to see Eavan Boland honoured by her Alma Mater.
Replying to @tcddublin
The Eavan Boland Library will be the 1st building on campus named after a woman. Provost Dr @LindaDoyle said: “It is a fitting recognition of Eavan Boland’s poetic genius that our main Library, used by so many students and staff, will now carry her name."
