The New Ravis – Baby It’s On You
Out of the west comes this pop/rock duo of Eoghan and Diarmuid who have penned a Spotify-friendly song about alienation and social isolation.
The Galway-based band have struck gold with the video thanks to director Shane Serrano of Crude Media and an incredibly empathetic performance by actress Emily Lohan.
A fine song with an important message and a crack video to boot? Sweet.

…he was not alone in criticising the Taoiseach yesterday. Another Fianna Fáil TD, Margaret Murphy-O’Mahony, wrote on Twitter that the delay in Mr Varadkar and Mr Johnson talking “says so much about our Taoiseach #badlyhandling”. She also subsequently deleted this tweet.
Mr Martin had to issue a tweet clarifying Fianna Fáil’s position.
“To be absolutely clear; the refusal by PM Boris Johnson to engage with European leaders and our Taoiseach without pre conditions on the issue of Brexit is unacceptable and is not within the realms of normal diplomatic or political behaviour,” he wrote.

There’s a TD who feels strongly that
A person who’s renting a flat
Should be given a place
With just enough space
To start swinging an average cat

In its latest Quarterly Bulletin, the Central Bank forecasts 34,000 fewer jobs by the end of next year and 110,000 fewer jobs over the next ten years.
It said: “A disorderly Brexit would present enormous challenges for the Irish economy, especially in the near term, and would result in a loss of output and employment compared to a scenario where the UK remained in the EU.”
….The bank says that gauging the impact this could have on the Irish economy is “the most uncertain exercise” it has ever had to carry out.
