Now the dust has settled eye gouging should never happen and cannot be condoned with ‘buts’ or misdirection. However Armagh gave their best and the supporters were amazing. Galway deserved the win, just.

Crossed lanes on way to work to the displeasure of a woman in a jeep. She followed me to a shop, dished out a few dirty looks and a 30sec rant and told me I’ve made her ‘one angry fucking nurse’. Let’s hope she’s coming off night duty 😳

Quite remarkable view of our new PM from American news media. You simply won't see these views aired on the BBC.

Just as a comparison, the black outline is the size of Gaza. 1.8 million people live there - surrounded by a 26 foot wall with trigger happy Israeli snipers picking off unarmed innocent civilians at will. They have had over 3 Bloody Sunday’s in the last 24 hours #FreePalesitine
