Re NZ housing policy- As of late 2025/early 2026, New Zealand generally bans non-residents from buying existing homes, but has relaxed rules for wealthy investors. Holders of "Active Investor Plus" visas can now purchase residential property if it is valued at NZ$5 million or more. Citizen...

Look, look over there.

I guess those dead children are already forgotten.

Where do they find the time and money to turn the Iran/Israel/Yank war thread into an endless cesspool of pro Zionist Harsbara slop? It's their job I'd imagine. I'm not terribly interested in debating blood libel in Italy or elsewhere in Medieval times. The fact is that the Israeli Army extra judic...

Its a fair old total victory just the same. The Iranians are launching a variety of types of missiles quote frequently. And their hold over the straits means other countries have to row in- as it were!

Unless you are a British or EU citizen then as a foreigner you cannot by law purchase a house in Ireland. Also implement the 3 month rule for EU nationalities.

So which order of nuns who haven't paid their redress bill is scheduled to get this one? Just as a reminder the Bons Secours order is the same order that ran Tuam. Within three weeks of the discovery of infant bodies at Tuam Brian Noonan was guest of honour at the opening of the private sector Bons...

On mature reflection maybe Noel has a better chance than Ida.

Take a look at this video, 'cats playing the piano' https://share.google/UBFnurFnVvwOZUTHh

Vote Ida McKinley No.1.

I'm expecting a Connolly bounce and all manner of Gaelgóirí to tip the balance away from the Indo fella.

Still hope springs eternal.

The reason "the sun never set on the British Empire" was because not even God trusted the English in the dark.

An interesting document, with some very sensible actions laid out. It is, inevitably, weakest when it comes to the subvention. As I say, inevitably. It set me wondering what the future in a new Ireland would be for the SDLP. They're already facing challenges at the polls, and you could see some of ...
