The Covid Response Was Not a Mistake ? It Was Just Wrong Mon Sep 22, 2025 17:35 | Dr David Bell
The Covid response was not an error, and it was not the result of rushing to counter an unknown pathogen. It was a lot of people, mostly professionals, systematically doing what they knew was wrong, says Dr David Bell.

When it Comes to Reparations, the Church of England Doesn?t Care About Evidence or Ethics Mon Sep 22, 2025 11:00 | Nigel Biggar
The Church of England has shown that it doesn't care about evidence or ethics, says Prof Nigel Biggar. Why else, when presented with proof its ?100 million reparations giveaway is groundless, would it press on regardless?

Jump To Comment: 1San oíche Dé hAoine seo chugainn déanfaidh an Eite Chlé i nGaillimh iarracht scéal saoil an scríbhneora Pádraic Ó Conaire a shaoradh ón ngreim scornaigh atá ag an Aicme Cheannais air le fada. Déanfaidh Coiste Uí Chonaire comóradh dátheangach ar shaothar Phádraic Uí Chonaire ag a 8 a chlog san oíche Dé hAoine, 12 Nollaig, in Áras na nGael, Sr. Doiminic.
Léireoidh Diarmuid de Faoite cuid dá sheó aonair faoi Ó Conaire, léifidh scríbhneoir radacach eile as Gaillimh, an file Rita Ann Higgins, cuid de scríbhinní Phádraic agus roinnt ábhair léi féin. Tabharfaidh Aindrias Ó Cathasaigh léacht i nGaeilge faoin gConaireach (seo é an fear a scríobh leabhar faoi Mháirtín Ó Cadhain le gairid). Labharfaidh an staraí ar chúrsaí saothair, an Dr. John Cunningham, faoi Ó Conaire i mBéarla.
Tá sé ráite ag Seosamh Ó Cuaig as Coiste Uí Chonaire nach mbeadh glacadh ar bith ag Pádraic Ó Conaire le cuid den Aicme Cheannais atá in ainm is a bheith ag déanamh cuimhneacháin air i mbliana, 75 bliain thréis a bháis --- leithéidí Éamoin Uí Chuív agus ionadaithe oifigiúla as Bardas na Gaillimhe.
"Bhí Pádraic Ó Conaire in aghaidh an mhíleatachais, " a dúirt Ó Cuaig: "idirnáisiúnaí a bhí ann. Dá mbeadh sé beo inniu bheadh sé ag léirsiú in aghaidh Aerfort na Sionainne agus aerspás na tíre seo a bheith tugtha ag rialtas na hÉireann do lucht míleata Mheiriceá le ionsaí a dhéanamh ar an Iaráic. Bhí Ó Conaire gníomhach sa gcuid ab fhearr den pholaitíocht agus scríobh sé cuid mhór altanna ag seasamh le cothrom na Féinne. Is beag an mheas a bheadh aige ar an gcaoi a bhfuil Bardas na Gaillimhe ag iarraidh cead cainte a chosc sa gcathair faoi láthair."
Tá sé d'aidhm ag Coiste Uí Chonaire scríbhinní radacacha Phádraic a chur ar fáil níos foirleithne. Ní mórán a thuigeann anois chomh gníomhach agus a bhí sé. Chuidigh sé le bunú an Cheardchumainn Iompair agus Saothair i nGaillimh, thug sé tacaíocht do Réabhlóid na Rúise, bhí sé ó am go chéile i bpáirtithe Lucht Oibre agus Cumannacha.
Dúirt Seosamh Ó Cuaig go bhfuil súil ag an gCoiste na miotais a cumadh faoin gConaireach a scaipeadh. "SeanPhádraic a tugadh air," a duirt sé "ach ní raibh sé sean riamh (ní raibh sé ach 46 bliain nuair a cailleadh é.) Finscéal is mó atá sna scéalta faoin Asal Beag Dubh. Tá áibhéil freisin sna tuairiscí faoin méid óil a rinne sé. Ceannródaí a bhí ann ag cruthú litríochta nua-aimseartha i nGaeilge agus, d'fhear a fuair bás chomh hóg, d'fhág sé saothar den scoth ina dhiaidh."
