Don?t Blame Gen Z Thu Feb 13, 2025 09:00 | Joanna Gray
Joanna Gray says the Gen Zer she was mentoring had an epiphany: "It?s not us who suck; it?s you Gen Xers. No wonder you lot went along with all that trans BS, you'd all lost your bottle." Terrifyingly, he was right.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4There doesn't appear to have been any mention of this event in the press.
Some media were there, a couple of photographers and I think a radio station. I sent what I had to most of the major papers including the Tribune and Times.
No this has gone the way of heroin addicts deaths, it's all about space and sales figures. The only one that has been consistant is the Village magazine. Vincent Brown might have something in the pipeline. (deliberate pun). If someone dies in Mayo or whereever the vultures will be circling.
Though don't wait on the Sindo or Sunda World to break the mould.

They are putting out shock news that Ireland is on the brink of running out of gas. The claim is that we should have brought Corrib online and we should hurry up and get it sorted, before the evil Russians turn off the gas tap. Expect to hear more of this in the coming weeks.
Suggested response to the claim that "Ireland needs the Corrib gas"
1. Well, they should have done it safely then.
2. The Corrib gas will be no more "Irish" than any gas from Russia or anywhere else. It belongs to Shell, and they get to sell it to the highest bidder.
Since the British gas companies are under legal obligation to guarantee domestic gas supplies to their market in England and Scotland, they will certainly outbid Bord Gáis in nay future crisis. So the gas may be needed in Ireland, but it's going to Britain.
If you want to ensure security of supply in Ireland you need to change the contracts, and there is no sign of Eamon Ryan doing that.
No doubt that this will be run in the media to pressurise An Bord Pleanala to change their November decision.
Campaigners need to get the mainstream media to ventillate this or shame them to do this, because the mass of people have not got a clue what is going on here.
