Darragh O’ Brien and Eoin O Broin on Rte 1 now chatting about housing (or lack of)
Watching this for the first time tonight - Christ it is a tough watch but excellently made. The scene in the food bank is one of the most heartbreaking things I have ever seen.
It’s a brilliant film. Loach has spent 50 years+ making films about the marginalised in Britain. Some catalogue of work.

I can’t find torrents of this
Game show with Ant n Dec. In theory no limit on amount you can win. There are so many rules but all of a sudden I’m hooked like a pedestrian Wexford forward versus Kilkenny
They were utter utter cunts one and all
There was a very nice little programme of the slow TV genre on BBC2 which has just finished up there now with Paul Merson walking through the Yorkshire dales in which he talks about his life and his demons. One of those programmes you chance upon and have no intention of watching to the end but do.

That show about the Liffey at 730 on Teilifis Eireann looks decent. Scripted by Joseph O’Connor.

This was harrowing earlier.
Distressed people having to go on television to beg for their children’s basic rights for education and services.
No government minister would go on the show, according to Miriam O’Callaghan, presumably because they can’t defend the indefensible.
At the end of the segment, O’Callaghan announced that they had been informed that Josepha Madigan would be on Morning Ireland tomorrow. I imagine this was a response/advice having seen the backlash online.

Josepha will have no problem defending the indefensible
I had that on in the background while I was arguing with a few Limericks about the relative importance of inter county hurling 
A tough watch
Nasty stuff. No one would say hurling or sport is more important than the welfare of kids or life itself. I can’t see how you’d even connect the two.
My point exactly, hurling is entertainment.
True story though,
It’s entertainment but it’s also a passion for some, I believe that’s all that was said. No need to use two disabled children to try score a point.
Of course it is, it’s also my own business if I choose not to take it as seriously as sone others but still enjoy it as a form of entertainment.
It doesn’t suit sone lads that way obviously,
