📣 ANNOUNCEMENT Notice regarding comments targeted at Travellers and Roma

34 Upvotes

Can't believe I'm having to write something like this again only three months after the last one...

There has once again been a noticeable rise in the use of dog-whistles and other derogatory comments against members of the Travelling and/or Roma communities.

As a reminder, ethnicity is legally protected characteristic in this country, therefore comments such as the following fall under our hate speech rules:

  1. Dehumanising language
  2. Calls or support for exclusion of members
  3. Calls for or support for violence against members
  4. Implying members are responsible for actions carried out by other members is not allowed
  5. Slurs and dog-whistles (including but not limited to utterances such as "knacker", "culture", "culture boss")
  6. Statements of inferiority aimed at members

The Travelling and Roma communities remain open for discussion in this community provided it is done factually and respectfully.

Any and all dog-whistles used against the Travelling or Roma communities will be removed, and the offending commenters will be receiving community bans starting from 14 days.

So Tesco mobile have chimed in with their answer to Lidl connect. €10 p/m unlimited 5g data. Sounds great, and in line with GoMos current offering.

However a check of the wee t's&c's shows that this is not a permenant or for life offer as with the other networks. This is only available for a max of 24 months then ups to €20 p/m.

Cowboys Ted!!

Christ On A Bike Rmoved named driver from insurance and it went... UP?!

10 Upvotes

I can't figure this out.

I took the named learner driver off my car insurance before renewing and was sent a new quote of 150euro MORE. Wtf? I contacted CS thinking it was a mistake and they said it's correct, so I got them to add the named driver back and it went back down to the original quote.

I'm with getsetgo for years and find them great, no issues, but this makes no sense? Anyone have any ideas? I'm bemused.

Food and Drink Mixed Spice ingredients for Barmbrack

10 Upvotes

Hello! I'm looking to make barmbrack for the first time and it calls for 'mixed spices'. Respectfully, I want to make sure to get it right. As I understand, mixed spices is cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, and ground cloves.

For reference, this is the recipe I'm using: https://www.rte.ie/lifestyle/recipes/2017/1030/744665-irish-barmbrack/

Arts/Culture Halloween should get the St Patricks Day Treatment

590 Upvotes

I think back to the fake Halloween parade a few years ago and the interest there was and since then Ive been convinced that Halloween could be as big as St Patricks day.

Halloween(Samhain)is the only major secular festival from Ireland and given it already has a massive international audience and appeal it should be supported in a similar way to St Patricks day.

Big parades and the date itself being a public Holiday.

I dont think overnight giving it equal funding but investing in it more to eventually get it to that level seems like a no brainer.

Food and Drink Alternative for prepacked salads

• Upvotes

I’m trying to eat a bit healthier, and was getting Dunnes and Tesco prepared boxes of salads over the summer. A bit cold for that now. Anyone have any suggestions for some prepared stuff that’s good for cold weather/winter?

I do cook - but sometimes I’m really pushed for time, and the temptation is always there to just throw on a pizza. Dunnes and Tesco are the supermarkets that I shop in.
