Saturday September 20: Cloud Castle Lake, Somerville @ Whelan’s, Camden Street, Dublin (€10)

Nialler9 writes:

Culture Night has lots of events of interest this year on Friday night but apart from that, there’s the free BlueFire Street Fest in Smithfield on Saturday and Saturday night sees two of Ireland’s young talents: the jazz/indie/rock trio of Cloud Castle Lake launch their debut EP Dandelion with support from the bewitching Maria Somerville. Singer Daniel McAuley’s’ falsetto might not be for everyone but there’s no denying the nuanced arrangement in a song like Sync (above).

Minister for Transport Paschal Donohoe

Yes.

Very.

Mr Donohoe confirmed he had discussed with Minister for Justice Frances Fitzgerald last night Sgt Maurice McCabe’s latest allegations that several hundred penalty points are continuing to be terminated every month by members of the force.
“Both of us agree that they’re very, very serious and they must be investigated…It is hugely important that these areas be investigated properly and it be done in a clear manner,” he said.

Penalty point allegations ‘very, very serious’ – Donohoe (IrishTimes)

So.

How many can access the new system?

Interim Garda Commissioner Noirín O’Sullivan said the timeline in relation to these allegations was very important. She said only three people could cancel penalty points under the new system introduced in June.

Hmm.

That seems to narrow it down to three people.

It’s a two-piper.
