Ireland can't move forward unless its young people stay and it embraces migration (opens the original)
Read excerpt
SOME OF THE biggest stories in last week’s news cycle reflected the looming crises we’re facing in Ireland. Nursing Homes Ireland (NHI) raised the alarm about our ageing population, flagging that by 2045, the number of people aged 85 and over will rise by 162%. Pleading for support from the government, NHI noted that nursing homes are presently at 95% capacity. With nursing homes “effectively full” according to NHI chief executive Tadhg Daly, repercussions will be felt in the not-so-distant futu
Kelly Earley: Say what you like about Fair City, but Carrigstown forges real Irish talent (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A STAPLE OF Irish television programming, Fair City can be a point of contention among audiences. There are plenty who view it with firm indifference, as an extension of a wider disinterest in soaps. Then there are those who follow it closely: I count myself and my friends among this cohort, which also features a large swathe of grandparents. The final group, and I’m breaking the fourth wall here for a second, will swiftly make their vitriol for the show known in the comments. Despite the mixed
It’s time that Irish people learn some walking etiquette (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ONE OF THE few things that I dislike about Irish culture is our apparent inability to conduct ourselves on public streets. I’m not even talking about the drunk, the churlish or the loud. At least they make themselves known, and you can give them a wide berth. The most frustrating people on our pavements are the pedestrians. In many ways, we are lucky. Ireland is a more relaxed place for walkers than many of our neighbouring nations. London’s pedestrian culture is a bit more cutthroat, with many
Kelly Earley: We're in the middle of a luxury gym epidemic (opens the original)
Read excerpt
THOUGH HARD TO believe, there was a time when gyms were the preserve of the well-off. In a 2019 interview, fitness mogul Ben Dunne reflected on this era, which set the stage for his chain of reasonably priced gyms around Ireland. He noted that in the 1990s, fitness and leisure clubs “were highly priced and not at a reach for a lot of the population”. By the 2010s, low-cost gyms became commonplace. Chains like Flyefit and Dunne’s own BD Gyms led the charge on this, with the former introducing mon
Kelly Earley: If smart glasses weren’t creepy enough, now we have to worry about spy pens (opens the original)
Read excerpt
SMART GLASSES HAVE recently been dominating headlines, evoking a mix of curiosity, trepidation, excitement and horror. Politicians and the public have growing concerns about the privacy and safety violations experienced by those who are covertly filmed by the devices. Grassroots campaigns are being set up with the aim of having smart glasses banned entirely (or at least have measures put in place to offer them only to people who rely on them for accessibility). One newly forged group, entitled S
