Wounds are still open & there is much to be done to bring about justice &truth &healing for victims & survivors. Today I asked the Pope to use his office & influence to ensure this is done here in Ireland and across the World. Above all, I asked him to listen to victims. pic.twitter.com/YnnITpLapr

Hey, @rtenews. Will you be giving as much, indeed if any, coverage to the events in Dublin tomorrow that don’t actually include the pope and his church? Here’s a heads up: Say Nope to the Pope at the GPO 14.00h. Stand For Truth at the Garden of Remembrance 15.00. See you there.

Speaking of Weisselberg I think he invoked the 5th and prosecutors immunized him not to nail Cohen or Trump, but Trump’s kids: Eric, Ivanka and Don Jr., who may be in for sphincter-tightening experiences.

Seems a very generous interpretation @fiachkelly, there will be no backstop if there is no deal & a WTO rules scenario?
“backstop commits both the EU and United Kingdom to ensuring there is no hard border in Ireland even in the event of a no-deal Brexit” https://t.co/wyJBDtTCbq
