Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-ochtú lá déag de mhí Iúil. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.I ndiaidh cúpla seachtain dhrámatúil i bpolaitíocht na Breataine, tá an Feisire Parlaiminte nuathofa do Makerfield, Andy Burnham,ar tí seilbh a ghlacadh ar Uimhir 10 Sráid Downing. Cé go bhfuair Burnham, a bheidh ina sheachtú Príomh-Aire ar an mBreatain le deich mbliana anuas, ainmniúcháin ó 322 de na 403 Feisire de chuid Pháirtí an Lucht Oibre, tá dúshláin go leor roimhe anois,agus gan ach trí bliana fágtha den téarma rialtais. Beidh na fadhbanna tromchúiseacha ba chúis le titim a réamhtheachtaí, Sir Keir Starmer, faoi chúram iar-Mhéara Mhanchain go luath, lena n-áirítear míshástacht an phobail leis an rialtas, na géarchéimeanna leanúnacha sa Mheánoirthear agus an brú atá ag teacht ó ghrúpaí éagsúla chun caiteachas cosanta a mhéadú gan cáin ioncaim a ardú. Ní hé Burnham an t-aon pholaiteoir mór le rá sa Bhreatain atá i gcruachás faoi láthair, áfach. Tá ceisteanna crua le freagairt ag a phríomh-iomaitheoir, Nigel Farage, ceannaire an pháirtí Reform UK, tar éis teacht chun solais gur ghlac Farage le cúig mhilliún punt ó bhilliúnaí criptea-airgeadra. I measc ábhair imní gur sciúradh airgid a bhí ar siúl, tá an síntiús á fhiosrú anois ag an National Crime Agency, agus idir an dá linn, tá Farage tar éis éirí as a phost mar Fheisire Parlaiminte do Clacton, agus é ag súil go léireodh fothoghchán úr tacaíocht an phobail dó féin agus don mhaíomh gur íospartach den chóras oifigiúil é. Mar fhreagra, tá sé fógartha ag Páirtí an LuchtOibre, na Coimeádaigh, na Glasaigh agus na Daonlathaithe Liobrálacha nach mbeidh siad ag seasamh san fhothoghchán, agus is cosúil gurb é cuairteoir ón spás amuigh, darb ainm Count Binface, a bheidh ina phríomh-iomaitheoir do Farage.Dea-scéala do lucht leanúna an cheoil Éireannaigh a nascann an traidisiún leis an turgnamh, tá Trá Pháidín ar ais le halbam nua, go gairid i ndiaidh An A24 ón mbliain seo caite. Tarraingíonn an t-albam nua, Cloch ‘s Claí, inspioráid ón úrscéal aoiriúil cáiliúil le Myles na gCopaleen, An Béal Bocht, agus pléann sé an gaol idir an Ghaeltacht agus an chuid eile d'Éirinn chomhaimseartha, agus béim ar leith á cur ar chúrsaí tithíochta, ar fhadhbannaeacnamaíocha agus ar cheisteanna féiniúlachta. Is é seo an chéad eisiúint ag an ngrúpa ar an lipéad World of Echo, atá lonnaithe i Londain, agus a dhíolann ceirníní ó cheoltóirí ceannródaíocha ar fud an domhain, agus mar thoradh air sin,tabharfaidh sé deis do lucht éisteachta idirnáisiúnta aithne a chur ar an dream as Conamara. Tar éis 102 cluiche agus breis agus mí a bhí lán de scileanna iontacha, botúin thubaisteacha, taispeántais laochúla, moilleanna de bharr VAR agus conspóid pholaitiúil, tá Corn an Domhain ag druidim chun deiridh. Cé gurb iad an Spáinn rogha na coitiantachta, tar éis dóibh an Fhrainc a shárú in Dallas oíche Dé Máirt, le cúil ó Mikel Oyarzabal agus Pedro Porro, beidh neart le déanamh acu chun an lámh in uachtar a fháil ar an Airgintín, atá ag filleadh ar an gcluiche ceannais mar seaimpíní gan chloí tar éis bua cáiliúil i gcoinne Shasana ag Staid Atlanta oíche Dé Céadaoin. Níos cóngaraí don bhaile, ar lá spóirt lán le haicsean, fillfidh Gaillimh ar Chluiche Ceannais Iomána na hÉireann den chéad uair ó 2018, agus iad ag tabhairt aghaidh ar fhoireann Luimnigh atá sa tóir ar a séú theideal in ocht mbliana. Beidh Gaillimh ag súil go mbeidh an tosaí Rory Burke i mbarr a réime arís tar éis an gortú a d'fhulaing sé i gcluiche ceannais Laighean, agus tá faoiseamh ar fhir na Mumhan go bhfuil a gcaptaen, Cian Lynch, réidh le himirt tar éis dó a bheith as láthair ón mbua ar Chontae an Chláir. *GLUAISréamhtheachtaí - predecessorspás amuigh - outer spaceturgnamh - experimentaoiriúil - satiricalrogha na coitiantachta - the favourite to win i mbarr a réime - at the top of his game

VOV1 - Chỉ một tuần sau khi trở thành ứng cử viên gần như duy nhất cho vị trí kế nhiệm Thủ tướng Keir Starmer, hôm qua, ông Andy Burnham đã có bài phát biểu quan trọng đầu tiên kể từ khi trở lại Quốc hội Anh, công bố tầm nhìn đưa nước Anh “trở lại đúng hướng”.Bài phát biểu đầu tiên của ông Andy Burnham không chỉ là lời giới thiệu về chương trình hành động của một ứng cử viên thủ tướng, mà còn phản ánh nỗ lực của Công đảng trong việc tìm kiếm một hướng đi mới sau giai đoạn suy giảm lòng tin của cử tri. Nếu chính thức tiếp quản số 10 phố Downing trong những tuần tới, thách thức lớn nhất đối với ông Burnham là phải chứng minh rằng nước Anh có thể thực sự thay đổi bằng những chính sách khác với những gì các chính phủ tiền nhiệm đã theo đuổi.Ông Andy Burnham

In the U.K., the government developed a group tasked with “dreaming up psychological tricks to alter our behaviour” without the people being aware of it. The Behavioural Insights Team, known unofficially as the “Nudge Unit”, set the narrative for the COVID-19 fiasco. They were the team behind the infamous slogan, “Stay Home, Protect the NHS, Save Lives”, which was astroturfed into existence at the behest of 10 Downing. Thirty years earlier, Hollywood also “nudged” a generation of people to consume endlessly, seek disposable relationships, and build nothing during their time on Earth. The apathy of the Seinfeld characters towards premarital commitments prepped a generation to become a very comfortable, lonely, and sterile civilization. Social engineers seeking to lower population rates have continued to use television as a tool to adjust cultural norms and change behaviors without anyone noticing.---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar VigilanteNesa's Hemp | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms
VOV1 - Chính trường Anh tiếp tục biến động khi Thủ tướng Keir Starmer tuyên bố từ chức chưa đầy 2 năm sau khi đưa Công đảng trở lại nắm quyền bằng một chiến thắng được đánh giá là mang tính bước ngoặt.Quyết định này đồng nghĩa nước Anh sắp có vị Thủ tướng thứ 7 kể từ cuộc trưng cầu Brexit, tiếp tục nối dài giai đoạn thay đổi lãnh đạo liên tục trong gần một thập kỷ qua.Sự ra đi của ông Keir Starmer không chỉ làm dấy lên những tranh luận về tương lai của Công đảng, mà còn đặt ra nhiều câu hỏi về khả năng duy trì ổn định và niềm tin chính trị của nước Anh trong bối cảnh quốc gia này vẫn đang phải xử lý nhiều vấn đề đối nội và đối ngoại quan trọng. Liệu người kế nhiệm ông Starmer có thể giúp nước Anh tìm lại sự ổn định?

VOV1 - Ngày 22/06, Liên minh Châu Âu (EU) đã chính thức quyết định hoãn hội nghị thượng đỉnh song phương với Vương quốc Anh, đồng thời tiến hành đánh giá lại toàn bộ kế hoạch hợp tác sau thông báo từ chức bất ngờ của Thủ tướng Anh Keir Starmer. Theo thông tin mới nhất, Hội nghị thượng đỉnh EU - Vương quốc Anh lần thứ hai, vốn vừa được lên lịch ấn định vào ngày 22/7 tới tại Brussels, chắc chắn sẽ không thể diễn ra đúng hạn. Quyết định hoãn được đưa ra ngay sau khi Thủ tướng Anh Keir Starmer tuyên bố từ chức lãnh đạo Đảng Lao động cầm quyền, mở đường cho việc nước Anh chuẩn bị đón vị Thủ tướng thứ 7 chỉ trong vòng một thập kỷ.Tại cuộc họp báo, Chủ tịch Hội đồng Châu Âu Antonio Costa đã xác nhận việc hoãn hội nghị này là điều chắc chắn, đồng thời cho biết phía EU đang đánh giá lại các cơ hội để tổ chức sự kiện vào một thời điểm thích hợp hơn. Bên cạnh đó, ông Costa cũng bày tỏ hy vọng người kế nhiệm của ông Starmer sẽ tiếp tục duy trì lộ trình đang thiết lập và làm ấm bầu không khí quan hệ giữa Brussels và London sau những năm tháng đầy sóng gió thời hậu Brexit.Về phía Ủy ban Châu Âu, Chủ tịch Ursula von der Leyen đã gửi lời tri ân sâu sắc tới nhà lãnh đạo Anh sau bài phát biểu từ biệt của ông tại số 10 phố Downing. Bà Leyen nhấn mạnh ông Starmer đã có những đóng góp to lớn giúp an ninh của châu Âu và Ukraine trở nên vững chắc hơn trong hai năm nhiệm kỳ vừa qua.Thủ tướng Keir Starmer từ chức trong bối cảnh tỷ lệ ủng hộ sụt giảm mạnh và áp lực nội bộ gia tăng, khi cử tri cho rằng ông chưa mang lại những thay đổi thực chất như kỳ vọng. Ông Starmer sẽ tạm thời giữ vai trò Thủ tướng lâm thời cho đến khi Đảng Lao động bầu ra lãnh đạo mới (dự kiến hoàn tất vào cuối tháng 7). Ông Andy Burnham, người vừa được bầu làm nghị sĩ khu vực Makerfield, hiện đang là ứng cử viên sáng giá nhất có thể tiếp quản chiếc ghế Thủ tướng Anh mà không gặp phải sự cạnh tranh lớn nào. Việc thay đổi nhân sự cấp cao đột ngột này đã khiến tiến trình đàm phán về các thỏa thuận kinh tế, thương mại nông nghiệp, quyền đánh cá và chương trình di chuyển của giới trẻ giữa Anh và EU tạm thời rơi vào trạng thái đình trệ.Anh Tuấn/VOV-ParisViệc thay đổi nhân sự cấp cao đột ngột này đã khiến tiến trình đàm phán về các thỏa thuận kinh tế, thương mại nông nghiệp, quyền đánh cá và chương trình di chuyển của giới trẻ giữa Anh và EU tạm thời rơi vào trạng thái đình trệ - Ảnh: AP

In this episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, host John Scardena sits down with emergency management thought leader and Logista co-founder Drew Downing for a candid discussion on the future of emergency management, readiness, and disaster resilience. Known for his influential social media content and honest takes on the profession, Downing explores why the field struggles with credibility, burnout, and measuring true readiness. The conversation dives into prevention versus response, the limitations of traditional funding, and how communities can better measure readiness by focusing on resilience and self-sustainability rather than simply how quickly help arrives. Using examples from public health, wildfire response, and international emergency management models, the episode challenges conventional thinking about what it means to truly prepare communities for disasters. The discussion also tackles leadership, communication, and relationship-building within emergency management organizations. John and Drew examine why emergency managers need stronger storytelling and communication skills to build trust with elected officials and stakeholders. From the importance of “reading the room” to balancing data with emotional intelligence, the episode highlights how credibility and human connection often matter more than reports or metrics alone. The conversation also explores mitigation, recovery challenges, community vulnerability, and lessons learned from European civil preparedness models and modern conflict zones. Packed with practical insights and honest reflections, this episode offers emergency managers, public health professionals, and resilience leaders a fresh perspective on choosing “the right hard” in disaster management. #disastertough #EmergencyManagement #Readiness #Resilience #Leadership #Preparedness #DisasterResponse #PublicHealth #Mitigation #Recovery #RiskManagement #CommunityResilience

In the autumn of 1983 the world came very close to nuclear disaster without even knowing about it. US President Ronald Reagan would later recall the 'really scary' events of that year, which, as our guest Taylor Downing explains, were among the most dangerous of the Cold War Era. The nuclear scare of 1983 was generated by a series of factors that coalesced in terrifying style. There was the bellicose rhetoric of a new president, the paranoia of the aging political elite in the Kremlin and the disorienting pace of technological change. Downing guides us through the various elements of this frightening story in this episode, which climaxes with a moment of high drama in November 1983. The scenes, characters and storylines in this episode of Travels Through Time all feature in Taylor Downing's book, 1983: The World At The Brink. Show Notes Scene One: 23 March 1983. The White House Oval office; Reagan publicly announces on TV his Strategic Defense Initiative, known as his Star Wars policy. Scene Two: 26 Sept 1983; Serpukhov-15 Early Warning Satellite station 80 miles south of Moscow; Lt Col Stanislav Petrov takes a shift in what becomes a dramatic night. Scene Three: 9 November 1983; NATO Command HQ, Mons Belgium and Kuntsevo Clinic outside Moscow; Able Archer 83 reaches its climax. Memento: The Soviet situation board.

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an séú lá déag de mhí na Bealtaine. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.Tá Príomh-Aire na Ríochta Aontaithe Keir Starmer faoi bhrú i ndiaidh seachtain dhramatiúil inar éirigh roinnt airí as an gcomh-aireacht in Westminster, iad ag rá nach bhfuil muinín acu as. Bhí sé i gcruachás mar thoradh ar na toghcháin áitiúla i Sasana inar chaill Páirtí an Lucht Oibre beagnach 1,500 comhairleoir ar fud na tíre, níos mó ná 450 i Londain amháin. D'admhaigh Starmer gur ndearnadh botúin le linn a théarma go dtí seo, ach go leanfadh sé ar aghaidh mar cheannaire an pháirtí agus mar Phríomh-Aire mar sin féin, cé gurb iad Reform an páirtí is mó anois agus Nigel Farage faoi lán seoil go Sráid Downing, de réir cosúlachtaí. Ba é Wes Streeting an chéad iomaitheoir mór le héirí as Dé Céadaoin, agus d'fhógair an iar-Leas-Phriomh-Aire Angela Rayner Déardaoin go bhfuil a cuid fadhbanna cánach réitithe. Ceaptar go seasfaidh sí do cheannaireacht an pháirtí mura féidir le Méara Mhanchain Andy Burnham dul san iomaíocht. Níl cead ag éinne an cheannaireacht a bhaint amach gan a bheith ina fheisire ach dúirt Josh Simons tráthnóna Déardaoin go n-éireodh sé as a shuíochán le deis a thabhairt do Burnham i bhfothoghchán. Ainm eile a luaitear leis an bpost ná iar-cheannaire an pháirtí Ed Miliband, ach tá an chuma ar an scéal nach seasfaidh sé.Go cúrsaí ceoil anois, le píosa nuachta a bheidh spéisiúil do lucht éisteachta an amhránaí as Contae Lú, David Keenan. Tar éis taispeantáis rathúla ar fud na cruinne, ag féilte scannáin ó Krakow go Chicago, tá an clár faisnéise David Keenan: Focla ar Chanbhás le feiceáil faoi dheireadh ar Sheinnteoir TG4. Paddy Hayes a stiúr é, ainm atá ceangailte le hearnáil craoltóireachta na hÉireann le blianta fada, i measc a chuid saothar bhí an tsraith iriseoireachta Corp agus Anam. Leanann an clár nua seo David ar feadh caoga lá, le fócas ar leith ar an bpróiseas cruthaitheach a bhí aige agus é i mbun taifeadta. Chomh maith leis sin, pléann sé an streachailt phearsanta fanacht glan ó bhrú na meán sóisialta agus a scéal féin á insint. Dá bhrí sin, is féidir a bheith ag súil le léargas fileata ar dhuine dár gcumadóirí comhaimseartha is cumhachtaí, agus ar a thírdreach inmheánach shaibhir.Bhí breis is míle paisinéir sáinnithe ar long chrúsála amach ó chósta Bordeaux i rith na seachtaine tar éis ráig gaistreintrítis. Cé nár bhuail an tinneas ach caoga duine, b'éigean do gach duine acu fanacht ar bord nuair a bhásaigh turasóir amháin agus léirigh roinnt de na daoine eile comharthaí an ghalair. Rinneadh iniúchadh go sciobtha agus fuair na híospartaigh cúram éigeandála ó dhochtúir na loinge sular cuireadh i gcoraintín iad. D'fhág an long darb ainm ‘Ambition' Oileáin Shealtainn ar an 6ú lá de mhí na Bealtaine agus stop sí ar dtús i mBéal Feirste agus ansin i Learpholl sular shroich sí Bordeaux. Agus muid ag taifeadadh, bhí na húdaráis fós ag bailiú samplaí ó na paisinéirí ionas go bhfeadfaí iniúchadh níos iomláine a dhéanamh. Deirtear nach bhfuil aon bhaint ag an eachtra seo leis an ráig hantaivíris a tharla ar long chrúsála de chuid na hÍsiltíre, an MV Hondius, le déanaí, ach pé scéal é, bígí cúramach má théann sibh amach ar muir!*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.
