The day following Bloody Sunday, Bernadette Devlin slapped Tory Home Secretary Reginald Maudling across the face on the floor of the Commons. Asked if she intended to apologise, Devlin said: “I’m just sorry I didn’t get him by the throat.” Be a Devlin, don’t be a Badenoch.

The Irish are known for their unapologetic support for Palestinians, but what connects the two peoples? @dena speaks to Irish people about why they feel a sense of shared struggle with Palestinians.

I absolutely abhor animal cruelty says Heather Humphreys at the launch of her Presidential Campaign Last week in @ST__Ireland A retired veterinary inspector says Humphreys's intervention as business minister prompted the collapse of a criminal investigation -John Mooney Kieran Devlin, a retired veterinary inspector who has never previously spoken publicly on the case, said he was left “totally aghast” by the decision to drop the case against Brian Wright, a Co Monaghan farmer, after Humphreys, then minister for business, had a staff member deliver a letter to Brendan Gleeson, the department’s secretary-general. While Humphreys has insisted she did not interfere in the case, internal Department of Agriculture documents say the charges were dropped after Wright’s family made “representations” to the Fine Gael grandee. #Virginmedia #HeatherHumphreys #AnimalCruelty #Whistleblower #Aras25 #PE25 vm.tiktok.com/ZNdg8w8ML/

A government response is underway following a confirmed sighting of the Asian Hornet. While there isn’t a significant public health risk to humans, this species is a threat to honeybee populations and biodiversity. @BioDataCentre @agriculture_ie @NMIreland @DeptHousingIRL

This is a picture of the PDS 70 system The parent star is in the center, with a large planetary ring around it But the most interesting thing is the small spot on the right inside the ring. This is the newly formed planet PDS 70c, with a dust disk in which satellites are thought to be forming The image was taken by the ALMA telescope complex

We continue to follow the new guest of our Solar system! Recall! The interstellar object 3I/ATLAS has burst into our system. This is already the third interstellar object in the history of observations. Its diameter is about 10-30 km! And the speed of movement is 61 km/s.

The yellow structure depicted is the Laniakea Supercluster, a vast cosmic region that houses approximately 100,000 galaxies. The red dot in the image represents our home, the Milky Way, which boasts around 300 billion stars, including our very own Sun.
