SUSAN KIRBY’S EXHIBITION

Date: December 16, 2020 - Affairs of the Nation

THE NEW boss of the Screen Producers Ireland lobby group is former St Patrick’s Festival CEO Susan Kirby. There has, however, been no mention in media coverage of her attempt to rescue the disastrous Dublin Contemporary 2011 exhibition. Maybe that is not surprising. DC2011 was hardly a success, with €4m gobbled up by an event… Read more »

FEED THE BIRDS

Date: December 16, 2020 - Affairs of the Nation

What could be more heart-warming than a fisherman sharing his catch with hungry penguins in a wildlife park forced to close due to Covid-19?

CONGRATULATIONS TO Dave Rock and his team at RocDoc, who managed to secure some top-notch PR in the Sindo earlier this month for the company’s Dublin Airport antigen ‘Lamp’ test for Covid-19.

TOM ARNOLD Dear Editor, Your profile of Tom Arnold (The Phoenix 4/12/20) states that “Arnold is now very much distanced from Concern, which has affiliated with Trócaire… to form… Stop Climate Chaos”.

KINAHANS’ BELFAST LINKS

Date: December 16, 2020 - Hush Hush

The Russian Makarov firearm, either as a handgun or rifle, is a signature weapon of the Kinahan cartel and has been linked to a series of Kinahan murders and arms finds.

“Methane is a short life cycle gas.” This was just one of several flimsy arguments from IFA president Tim Cullinan that went unchallenged by Bryan Dobson in an interview on RTÉ’s News at One last week.

INTERESTING to see that Fianna Fáil members on the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) did not row in with abandon behind Fine Gael’s onslaught against Sinn Féin’s TD and PAC chair, Brian Stanley, for comparing Warrenpoint to Kilmichael and because of another, three-year-old tweet about Leo Varadkar.

IF SINN Féin stands accused of deliberately embarrassing the government parties with confidence motions and other tactics, Social Democrats TD Jennifer Whitmore, party spokesperson on climate change and diversity, can legitimately embarrass the Green Party.
