203 years ago, Napoleon Bonaparte died in exile. Many celebrated, many mourned, few would have denied that he was one of the most significant historical figures of the age. He was only 51 and had only ruled France for about 15 years, but his influence is almost incalculable.
I look forward to the supplements. "What will €5,000 buy your eternal soul in Ranelagh, Spain, Jamaica, Norway and Donegal?"

Forrmer Taoiseach, Champion for Peace & @fiannafailparty former leader, Bertie Aherne addresses media at Hotel Kilmore in Cavan before my Public Meeting with friends, family and fellow party members - ní neart go chur le chéile! #BackBlaney
Thanks to @farmersjournal for this article - red tape choking farmers - Ní Mhurchú - farmersjournal.ie/news/news/red-…
This is just soundbite nonsense. You aren't allowed to drink in the stands in Croke Park for any sport. A cheap shot at the GAA.

@NewstalkFM 30 seconds of research would have set you straight there but no “it’s a chip on the GAA’s shoulder” If you can get something as easy as that to research,so badly wrong What else are you lot getting wrong ?

Chatting to farmers in Cork at the @IFAmedia hustings. So many issues to address. Farmers need strong rural voices in the European Parliament.
Bertie Ahern said that if the British government had cancelled a meeting with him last-minute, like they did with Minister Helen McEntee, “I would tell them the next meeting is in Kerry”. Read here: jrnl.ie/6368341t
What a result for the lads!! Congratulations to Clara man Shane Lowry and Rory McIlroy after their huge win at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. As always, thanks for the support 😅😂
Cannot believe it is 30 years tomorrow since I presented the Eurovision. Feels like yesterday!! Listen back here "30 years since Riverdance made is debut on TV. Anton is joined by barrister and former RTÉ presenter, Cynthia Ní Mhurchú to look back on the night and what it was…
So @Conservatives polling says the only way for them to save their miserable hides is to go in for some paddy-bashing… looks like the spirit of Charles Edward Trevelyan lives on in Tory central office

Ah here. The students of "Trinity" doesn't exactly suffer from the same institutionalised oppression and prejudice that the residents of Derry did.

For the last bloody time ... Cromwell did not 'gift' the Book of Kells to Trinity College Dublin. That's all!
This year is my 25th year as Ireland’s #Eurovision commentator. Here’s a photo of myself and Maxi hosting the Eurosong in Dublin back in 1987 - the year Johnny Logan won the contest with ‘Hold Me Now’.
Today I had the honor of presenting my book to a genuine Tiger killer. Avgust Vikhnin began his career as an antitank gun commander in 1944 and ended it as a Lt.Col. in the tank forces in the 70s. He knocked out 11 tanks, one of which was a Tiger.
25 years ago today, the first elections to the National Assembly for Wales (now Senedd Cymru) and the Scottish Parliament were held. The campaign for a Cornish Parliament continues.
The European Union has designated the PFLP as a terrorist organisation. This is tantamount to waving a Hamas flag, a group also listed in the same 2012 Council decision. eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/Lex…
A PFLP flag at TCD. They've been slaughtering civilians for decades, abusing women - a far-right proscribed terror group claiming to be Marxist. Shame on anyone supporting this protest.

What TCD could do is make @tcdsu membership opt in rather than opt out (currently compulsory - an old fashioned closed shop). Sorted in the stroke of a pen.
Sure, Trinity can just send the students another €214k fine for this. OR maybe just maybe ask why the students who studied so hard to get into your university are protesting. Palestinians are being decimated. Institutions who will be teaching this history need to realise that.
Great to be back onstage with The Vals last night for the Foodstock Festival. An incredible night and real coming together of community. Thank you all! #SolidarityNotCharity

Another reminder that Alex Jones is not a reliable source. (I assume everyone already knew that,but maybe some don't.)
I am not a Catholic. But I have studied the history of the Catholic Church and it’s clear that Pope John Paul II was the last true Catholic pope. The current pope is the anti-pope. What do you think?
