“I Witnessed this attack last night. I called an ambulance directly after. Before they arrived a second women stamped and kicked the victims head a few more times and bashed her head into the ground. Ambulance arrived soon after and she was taken away.
“These people had been drinking all day in the square with their young children; urinating into the planters and throwing glass bottles around. Moments after the ambulance left police arrived, not to make arrests or confiscate alcohol, but to ask the group to move on. I wish I could say this was unusual but it happens every other day.”

Currently causing all manner of speculation online, Mianyang kung fu master Liu Fei stuffs his mouth with sawdust then proceeds – seemingly without any ignition source – to exhale smoke and fire for three minutes.
Your theories?

‘Gaza Action Ireland’ protesters outside the Department of Foreign Affairs in Dublin this evening to protest against the on going conflict in Gaza.
“In my professional opinion, the ongoing attacks on medics in Gaza clearly constitute a war crime that cannot be justified and warrant immediate referral to the International Criminal Court. I call on our government to demand an apology from the Israeli ambassador or to expel him.”
Professor Damian McCormack, a surgeon at the Mater this evening.
