Summary

Sean McGovern, a senior figure in the Kinahan cartel, has received what The Irish Times understands to be one of the longest gangland sentences in Irish history. There has been a rise in reports of wildlife habitat destruction, but according to new figures, prosecutions for it aren’t keeping up, according to the National Parks and Wildlife Service. An “exponential” rise in Irish language exemptions among school children could be “disastrous” for identity and education, according to a new study. Should Ireland consider overturning the ban on nuclear energy?  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
