Super Flu? More Like Super Hype Sun Dec 14, 2025 13:05 | Dr David Livermore
Present case numbers for the ?K? variant Super-Flu don't justify the hype, says Dr David Livermore. Perhaps it's the media lust for fear porn, or perhaps the Government's fear of the strike, but it's not a Super-crisis.

Beano Brain: Why Does the Beano Have its Own Special In-House Child Psychology Unit? Sun Dec 14, 2025 09:00 | Steven Tucker
In the good old days, children's comics had one purpose: to be funny. Now, the Beano sees its mission as 'mental health' ? and has its own in-house child psychology unit to keep it on message, says Steven Tucker.

"Lord Ken Maginnis and David Simpson, DUP, had been due to fly out this week to meet soldiers from the Royal Irish and the Irish Guards but the Army couldn't find flak jackets large enough to fit them."
But we're all very ecumenical and inclusive-nationalist here, I'm sure.
So of course we can accept them as our (prodigal - prodigious?) Irish brethren. And I'm sure there are working-class loyalists who wouldn't argue with the "fat-cat" label....
"The reality is that we have young men and women out there fighting for us. They are putting their lives on the line. They deserve a little bit of consideration..."
I could make a very cynical comment on that, but that would be just not nice at all.
"9mm Willie" O'Dea probably has a few flak jackets in his attic
Along with a few bats in his belfry
and a few skeletons in his closet
[and a tiny penis by the sound of it!]
Bit of a redner that.
Me thinkin the soldiers of density were the usual suspects. Sure Kenny Boy should have a few old flak jackets of his own up in the attic.
Check the names again opus me old flower. Them boys won't be converting anyone to Maynooth's particular brand of worship!!
Tell them its a junket and half them will be wiped out in the crush trying to get priority.
Mind you, the tammany survivors will probably finish up takin over the taliban and converting the poor bastards to Maynooth superstitions.
I mean, what have the Afghans ever done to us?
We should send all the "soldiers of destiny" to Afghanistan for a LONG tour of duty. WITHOUT flak jackets.
After all they happily supported the US illegal wars by giving Shannon airport to the US and they are happily condemning us all to a poverty and unemployment gulag here in Ireland
I don't know how the politicians concerned would feel about being described as "Irish", even in a Mexican newspaper.
