With the 110th anniversary of the Easter Rising upon us, it seems a good time to look at one of the less familiar figures of the story. Somewhat in the shadows, Éamonn Ceannt was a meticulous organiser, vitally important not only to the revolutionary movements of his time but traditional music too. His Dublin centred on Rialto, Dolphin's Barn, Crumlin and the surrounding areas, and in this episode we learn about Ceannt's importance to the story of 1916.

Clifton Collins (55) had a thriving business growing cannabis in rented houses around the country.The Crumlin man and expert beekeeper was known for his award-winning honey but his real earner was the fortune he made from years of dealing drugs.He operated under the radar so when gardaí came across him parked in the Wicklow Mountains one night, they had no idea their search would eventually result in of the most lucrative seizures in the history of the Criminal Assets Bureau.Collins had amassed 6,000 bitcoin around 2010. The problem for the Garda was they didn't know the code to unlock the wallets; it was, Collins said, lost.His bitcoin stash had by 2026 rocketed in value to €360 million.Seven years after gardaí seized the wallets they have finally been able to open one of them and have released €30 million.

Niall qualified as a doctor from Trinity College, Dublin in 1993. He trained as a surgeon in Belfast and received his FRCSI in 1997. He was a trainee in cardio-thoracic surgery working as an SHO in the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast before returning to Dublin where he worked as a registrar in the National Cardiac Surgery Unit in the Mater Hospital and Our Lady's Children's Hospital, Crumlin.He subsequently retrained as an airline pilot with Aer Lingus in 1999 and combined aviation with medicine by working as an Accident & Emergency doctor for six years before focusing fully on aviation. After operating as a co-pilot on both the European and Trans-Atlantic fleets, he qualified as a captain in 2010. He is currently operating out of their Manchester base on the Airbus A330 Trans-Atlantic fleet. In 2011, Niall formed Frameworkhealth Ltd, a company providing aviation-style safety training modified specifically for healthcare which draws on his thirty-five years of experience between both industries. The company has since evolved into Framework Safety Group Ltd. This project aims to share aviation's Safety Management System blended with Human Factors and Evolutionary Psychology with healthcare and other industries in order to address the huge issue of Adverse Events, usually caused by systemic faults but often blamed on the last individual to have touched the ball. Niall aims to encourage industries, especially healthcare to adopt a Just Culture, embed a systemic Human Factors approach and empower staff, patients and their families to speak up as part of the crew. His approach is based on the premise that technology and society have evolved faster in the last century than the human brain can accommodate so we need to adapt to account for this in order to reduce the number of adverse events. He has spoken at many conferences locally, nationally and internationally on the topic.Niall has contributed articles both to specialist journals and national newspapers such as The Irish Times. He has also given interviews for national television including RTE TV News and Virgin Media and has been interviewed several times on BBC Radio. In 2016, Niall was appointed an Expert Advisor to the Northern Ireland Executive's Dept of Health following a well received TEDx talk in Stormont's Great Hall.Niall cycled at national level for thirteen years and at pro-am international level for several years in the early 90s and was a member of Northern Ireland's Commonwealth Games panel. He subsequently worked as Medical Officer for both the Federation of Irish Cyclists (now Cycling Ireland) and the Ulster Cycling Federation. He also worked as a Race Doctor at international level for six years.In 2023, Niall had his first book, ‘Oops! Why Things Go Wrong' published which explored the increasingly topical issue of error across industry and society generally and most importantly, how to address it. The book is already in it's second print run after a higher than anticipated demand.The success of the book has led to many invitations from outside healthcare, hence Frameworkhealth's evolution into Framework Safety Group Ltd in recognition of this broadening scope.

Solidarity WorksForty years ago this month, ten workers from the Henry Street branch of Dunnes Stores in Dublin's city centre went on strike to protest against the selling of produce from Apartheid South Africa. A year later, the group was joined by another worker, Brendan Barron, from the Crumlin store, bringing their number to eleven. The strike lasted for almost three years. I remember it well. I joined the picket line a few times and Sinn Féin and An Phoblacht were firm supporters of the Dunnes Store strikers. Their courageous stand led to the Dublin government banning South African goods from Irish stores. The strike followed a decision by the Irish Distributive and Administrative Union IDATU, now the Mandate union, not to handle South African produce. Release Leonard Peltier Earlier this month 79 year old native American indigenous activist Leonard Peltier was denied parole. He won't be eligible now for another parole hearing until June 2026. His legal team will appeal the decision.Leonard has consistently denied that he was responsible for killing of two FBI agents in 1975. His family and supporters are now deeply concerned that after almost 50 years in prison that Leonard will die there as his health has severely deteriorated in recent years. Lies and HypocrisyLies, hypocrisy, double standards, starvation, and the mass murder of civilians have been essential tools in the Israeli government's genocidal war against the Palestinian people. Some have also been a feature of the policies and propaganda employed by those governments allied to Israel's war strategy. Last week Russian missiles destroyed much of a children's hospital in Kyiv. A wave of other similar attacks took place against cities across the Ukraine. There was justifiable criticism of Russia which this column shares. Meanwhile the deliberate destruction of so-called ‘safe zones' in Gaza by Israeli bombers continues using armaments supplied by western powers. Over a hundred and fifty Palestinians are known to have been killed. Many hundreds more have been left grievously injured trapped in a place that has almost no medical facilities or resources.

This week, with Johnny's job count at 8 (or is it 7?), we reunited two old friends who met as teenagers with no idea of the journey that lay ahead. Padraig Amond was the hurler under a different name from Carlow with football ambitions. Eoin Doyle was a ‘lunatic' from Dublin with no idea that he could make a living from the game. But both these cats got the cream, one of them scoring versus Man City and the other playing for every club that wasn't in the Premier League. In our weirdest mailbag to date, the electronic telegrams are asking about the Pat Scully bus trip, Super Sundays with Paul Cook, flares of the non-trousered variety, and clock-watching on the pitch. The two lads delve into their formative years, from Crumlin days and Milk Cup adventures in the shadow of Anthony Stokes to learning the game with Shamrock Rovers and Sligo Rovers. There's a £25 million deal, a couple of dumb country fellas and the pros and cons of making it as a latecomer. Late developers may be on topic this week, but after listening to what we've gotten for you in conjunction with Rascals, Future Ticketing and Collar & Cuff, like the crowds so far, we're way ahead of the curve.
