RIC AND THE ‘IRISH TIMES’

Date: January 16, 2020 - Fit to Print?

THE Irish Times may be ruing its own campaign – via former political editor Stephen Collins and its own editorial platform – in support of the state’s decision to “acknowledge the contribution” of the RIC during the Tan war, as its editorial put it when welcoming the planned event. Presumably that “contribution” includes the selection… Read more »

JOHN PAUL PHELAN’S CHEAP SHOT

Date: January 16, 2020 - Fowl Emissions

Embattled Australian PM Scott Morrison has shipped plenty of well-earned flak for his staunch defence of the most polluting industries in his country. And, as the country burned, he retreated to every slippery politician’s favourite talking point: how puny Australian emissions are compared to, well, everyone else’s. This is almost identical to the excuses repeatedly… Read more »

FOUR FAULTS IN CONNAUGHT

Date: January 16, 2020 - High Society

THERE WERE fun and games last week at a specially convened (and ultimately especially heated) meeting of the Connaught region of Showjumping Ireland (SJI) in Co Mayo, which ran until 1.30am when members of the new committee were finally installed.

THE OPENING day of racing in 2020 saw the stewards at Fairyhouse on New Year’s Day hand out their first big fine of the year and it was ironic that the recipient was a former employee of the Irish Horse Racing Regulatory Board (IHRB).

HRI CUTS ITS CLOTH

Date: January 16, 2020 - Sport of Kings

THE 2020 budget for Horse Racing Ireland (HRI) was approved just before Christmas and, given the government’s standstill allocation to racing, it was no surprise to see the development of a new all-weather track at Tipperary shelved due to a lack of funding. Meanwhile, integrity services look set to be curtailed. Brian Kavanagh and the… Read more »

AS PART of the national broadcaster’s “jam-packed” Christmas schedule (ie seasonal specials and jaded family-friendly staples), Great Irish Interiors followed the work of interior design teams as they restored three historical country piles.

THE SURPRISE stepping down on December 9 of Tullow Oil’s relatively recently appointed (April 2017) CEO, Paul McDade, and the equally sudden resignation of Angus McCoss, Tullow’s exploration director, shocked the market, driving the company’s shares down a whopping 70%.
