€100m of our money gone into the hands of a private company with almost no transparency. Time for this to end
The value of unclaimed deposits from soft drink containers is set to rise above €100 million, new data released has shown businesspost.ie/api/oc-post/…

RE-TURN MADNESS When filling a press in my apartment with two big bags of bottles rather than putting them in my little kitchen green bin I felt mad at @EamonRyan and @greenparty_ie for the utter idiocy of the whole thing. When putting the two big bags of cans and bottles in the back of my car and driving them several miles to my supermarket I felt mad @FineGael and @fiannafailparty for continuing the charade. When feeding bottles and cans into a machine which stopped working half way through I felt mad @returnireland for squirrelling away millions in taxpayer money on high salaries and on God knows what else, while at the same time causing green bin prices to increase. The entire scheme should be shut down and the stupid machines should be recycled.

Spain’s MEP Irene Montero: “Netanyahu should be in detention, not speaking at the United Nations.” “There is an International Criminal Court arrest warrant against him, and it should be enforced.” 🇪🇸 🇵🇸

Irish followers, I hope you wear Israel's decision to shut down its embassy in Dublin as a badge of honor. Ireland's commitment to truth and justice stands in stark contrast to my country's flight from morals and humanity. You are our true friends. Erin go Bragh 🇮🇪🫡

This St. Patrick's Day, The Cru highlights the art of Irish cider-making with @CockageeCider . From the crisp Classic Blend to the robust Oak Aged, each sip is a journey through Ireland's orchards. Cheers to Irish cider! sbee.link/qtkxmdy93p #TheCruIE #StPatricksDay

There are many flaws with the deposit return scheme and @BeerMessiah outlines one of them here. Expect fewer choices and smaller beer ranges in your supermarket and off-licence fridges.

A murmuration of Starlings at Dysart, Lough Ennell, Westmeath It took a few weeks to capture this particular shot, lots and lots of patience but the stars aligned last week and delighted with the result, probably my favourite non sporting image of 2023

The evocative poem ‘Oíche Nollag’ by Máire Mhac an tSaoi; recited by the people of Dún Chaoin - a community and place that inspired much of her poetry. #WestKerry #NollaigShona
