‘Putin’.
More old school animation from the west of Ireland made out of paper and paint.
None of your computer jiggery.
Got a bit wet this morning trying to get a pump going down at the back of Parnell Square, no spare set of clothes but the people are protected that’s the main thing. @rtenews @shannonsidenews @Midlands103 pic.twitter.com/bBzhSSlxc3

This afternoon.
Leinster House, Kildare Street, Dublin 2
Social Democrats co-leader Catherine Murphy welcomes Vladimir Putin-critic Bill Browder, founder and CEO of Hermitage Capital Management, head of the Global Magnitsky Justice Campaign and author of Red Notice.
Mr Browder was the largest foreign investor in Russia until 2005, when he was declared “a threat to national security” for exposing corruption in Russian state-owned companies. His lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky testified against state officials and was subsequently arrested, jailed without trial, tortured and died in prison.
The subsequent American bi-partisan Magnitsky Act authorises the US government to sanction those who it sees as human rights offenders, freezing their assets, and ban them from entering the US.
Mr Browder made a presentation to Senators and TDS regarding a possible Irish/EU Magnitsky Act.
