More turmoil could be waiting in the wings for UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. He won't be standing down in the wake of his press secretary and chief of staff resigning. Starmer's former deputy leader, Angela Rayner, has set up a website as part of a potential leadership challenge. UK correspondent Mike Pearse told Ryan Bridge an upcoming byelection could be another blow for Starmer. He says the polls have Labour coming last which would be a massive challenge for Starmer.

The UK Prime Minister's chief of staff Morgan McSweeney's quit - taking responsibility for advising Starmer to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's chief of staff has quit - claiming he's responsible for advising Starmer to appoint Peter Mandelson as US ambassador. Morgan McSweeney's position had been in doubt - after emails revealed Mandelson's relationship with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Mandelson's facing a criminal investigation - into claims he'd passed sensitive information to Epstein. UK correspondent Mike Pearse told Ryan Bridge the scandal has Starmer's popularity waning. He says a new poll reveals Starmer has the support of fewer than one in five people in the UK - with some of his own MPs saying it's a matter of time before he pays the price.

The British Prime Minster says Lord Mandelson has let the country down as he quits the House of Lords. UK Police are now investigating allegations that Mandelson shared internal government information with convicted sex offender Jeffery Epstein.

The former British ambassador to the US has resigned from the UK Labour Party, over his links with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The BBC reports that Lord Mandelson, who was sacked as the ambassador last year, is now stepping down from the party entirely.

India and the European Union have announced what's been named 'the mother of all trade deals'. The landmark agreement will allow the free trade of goods across the 27 EU states and India, which make up nearly 25% of global trade across a market of two billion people.

Europe correspondent Mike Pearse told Ryan Bridge just about everything from tea, to cars, to chemicals will see tariffs cut and trade made easier.

In 1964, Captain James T. Kirk set the tone for a generation when he declared: “Space—the final frontier….to explore strange new worlds…. to boldly go where no man has gone before.” Today, that spirit of exploration has found a new frontier — not in space, but in the human eye.In this episode of Eyes on Tomorrow, we're joined by Professor Pearse Keane, Professor of Artificial Medical Intelligence at UCL. Like a modern-day Captain Kirk, Pearse is leading ophthalmology on a voyage of discovery, using AI to take us to truly “strange new worlds” — and revealing what the retina can tell us about our risk of systemic disease.Pearse explains why ophthalmology is uniquely placed to ride the AI wave, and how a speculative LinkedIn message sparked a collaboration with Mustafa Suleyman that led to the groundbreaking partnership between Moorfields Eye Hospital and Google DeepMind.We explore the rise of oculomics, from predicting age and sex using a single colour fundus photograph, to using large language models and retinal imaging to stratify risk for cardiovascular and neurological disease. We also tackle the ethical challenges this technology raises, including data protection, and look ahead to how AI will bring optometrists, primary care doctors, and hospital specialists closer together than ever before.It may sound like science fiction, but this is science fact. This conversation offers a glimpse into a “brave new world” that's closer than we think.Bonus subscriber contentIn this month's bonus episode Pearse discusses RETFound, the first foundation model in medicine, capable of predicting myocardial infarction, heart failure, and ischaemic stroke from unlabelled retinal images. Pearse tells us how, by making this AI open-source, it is democratising access to this transformative technology.Get access to this Bonus episode, along with a host of CPD resources, when you subscribe for only £25 per year at eyesontomorrow.substack.com/subscribe.Eyes on Tomorrow is supported by Topcon Healthcare and Thea UK.Produced by Matt Hill at Rethink Audio.

This week on Unskippable Dialogue, Pearse finally sits down with Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, a game that spent seven years in development, one very public reset, and somehow still arrived carrying the weight of everyone's expectations like a cursed Chozo artefact.We talk about the logo-only reveal back in 2017, the 2019 development restart, and how Beyond opens feeling more like Halo than Metroid, Space Pirates, marines everywhere… and then they vanish completely. Classic.There's a deep dive into scanning (too much of it), the poorly signposted point of no return that will absolutely ruin your 100% run, and why Metroid Prime Hunters somehow has more mechanical variety than a modern flagship sequel. We also get into Nintendo briefly flirting with open-world design because Breath of the Wild existed, and why Metroid absolutely does not need that energy.Boss fights come in for a hammering, especially the final encounter, which ignores everything Metroid bosses traditionally teach you and replaces it with escort mechanics, damage sponges, and vibes. Bad vibes.By the end of it, Pearse lands where he's been circling all episode: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is a good game that never had a chance. Not because it's bad, but because the internet decided it had to be transcendent.A calm, spoiler-aware, Irish gaming podcast take on one of Nintendo's most over-argued-about releases.UD is a weekly Irish gaming podcast serving up honest game reviews, deep dives, retro throwbacks, and sharp commentary on the world of gaming.Follow us:Ig – https://instagram.com/unskippabledialogueX – https://twitter.com/unskippabledTikTok – https://tiktok.com/@unskippabledialogueYouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@UnskippableDialogueSign up at https://www.unskippabledialogue.com for updates, giveaways, and exclusive content.Contact: hello@unskippabledialogue.com Hosted on Acast.

Pearse Kelly, Teagasc Head of Drystock, is on this week's Beef Edge podcast to reflect on beef supply, market and beef prices in 2025 and how to plan for 2026. Bord Bia had forecast the national kill would be back 70,000-90,000 in 2025 but that has been closer to 200,000. This is likely to remain similar in 2026. Pearse's long term outlook is positive but he says that farmers should complete a profit monitor in 2025 to assess performance and costs prior to 2026. Rupert Claxton also spoke at this year's Beef Conference giving a broad global view of beef with further details here: https://teagasc.ie/publications/national-beef-conference-2025/ You can also watch the recent beef webinar at:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntJD2zfLVmM For more episodes from the Beef Edge podcast, visit the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/thebeefedge Produced on behalf of Teagasc by LastCastMedia.com
The Game Awards 2025 are done, dusted, and already being argued about online, so naturally, Unskippable Dialogue decided to do our own version. Welcome to The Skippies.In this episode, Pearse and Conor break down The Game Awards 2025 from the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles, covering the big winners, the obvious winners, and the ones that caused a bit of side-eye. We talk Clair Obscur cleaning up, Battlefield 6 taking best audio, No Man's Sky still refusing to die, and why GTA 6 being “Most Anticipated” surprised absolutely nobody.But let's be honest, nobody watches The Game Awards for the awards. We dig into the trailers (or lack thereof), why this felt like a quieter year, and how Nintendo Directs now regularly outperform Geoff Keighley's big night. There's also a healthy amount of slagging, nostalgia for E3, praise where it's deserved, and frustration where it isn't. We also hand out our own personal awards, talk Game of the Year, surprises of 2025, what disappointed us, and what we're actually excited to play next. Expect opinions on Pragmata, future Capcom games, retro-futurism in sci-fi, and why “polished white sci-fi” does absolutely nothing for us anymore As ever, it's a mix of:Game Awards analysisGaming industry chatHot takes that may age terriblyIf you're looking for a Game Awards 2025 podcast, an Irish gaming podcast, or just want a slightly unhinged end-of-year gaming chat — this one's for you.UD is a weekly Irish gaming podcast serving up honest game reviews, deep dives, retro throwbacks, and sharp commentary on the world of gaming.Follow us:Ig – https://instagram.com/unskippabledialogueX – https://twitter.com/unskippablepodTikTok – https://tiktok.com/@unskippabledialogueYouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@UnskippableDialogueSign up at https://www.unskippabledialogue.com for updates, giveaways, and exclusive content.Contact: hello@unskippabledialogue.com Hosted on Acast.

Defend the GPO and Save Moore St.There is widespread anger at the decision by the Irish government to convert the historic GPO in Dublin into shops and offices. Last Saturday hundreds gathered in O'Connell St. to protest at the government's plans for the GPO and for the Moore St. Battlefield site. Their demand is for the protection of the cultural and revolutionary heritage of this part of Dublin.Every nation that fought for its freedom from colonial rule - often from the British - has hallowed ground, the place where patriots made a stand against injustice and occupation. For the people of Ireland, the GPO is one such place. It is the place where the revolutionary generation of the early 1900s declared for a Republic and where the Pearse read the Proclamation of that republic.Best International DocumentaryI spent the weekend in Galway and Mayo. The weather was amazing. The countryside with its miles of stone walls separating plots of land and the lush colours of green and rocky inclines was a joy to travel through.I was in Galway on Saturday to attend the Galway Film Festival/Fleadh where Trisha Ziff's film – A Ballymurphy Man - was receiving its world premiere.

Kathleen Lynn – a Rebel WomanI hope you all had an enjoyable Easter. Across the island and further afield commemorations were held at countless locations to remember those who fought in the 1916 Easter Rising and in all of the generations of the freedom struggle. The Belfast turnout was big and Pearse Doherty, who made an exceptional speech, was given a very warm welcome. I saw no mention of his remarks or those of other republican speakers on RTE, BBC or other broadcasters. So much for public service broadcasting! The story of Easter 1916 reverberates with many remarkable accounts of courage as a small band of Irish Republicans took on the largest Empire ever to have existed in human history. They include many women. Among these are Julia Grenan, Winifred Carney and Elizabeth O'Farrell who were in the GPO and in Moore St. when the decision to surrender was taken. Winifred Carney's statue now stands proudly in front of Belfast City Hall. Finding their place in a new IrelandIn his Easter remarks at the Republican Plot in Milltown Cemetery Teachta Pearse Doherty referenced the fact that the “momentum for Irish Unity grows stronger every day…. it is fast becoming the defining political project of our generation.” Pearse also addressed the importance of preparing for unity and in doing so the imperative of engaging with the unionist section of our people. He said: “There are many issues for republicans and unionists to talk about. We need to address the genuine fears and concerns of unionists in a meaningful way.”That means examining what they mean when they say they are British. We must be willing he said; “to explore and be open to new ideas. We need to look at ways in which the unionist people can find their place in a new Ireland.” A Barren Landscape of DeathThe Gaza Strip is one eighth the size of County Antrim and has a population three times larger. Imagine if Belfast north of the River Lagan and including Mallusk and Newtownabbey were levelled to the ground. No schools, no hospitals, no homes – just tents – no churches, no shops, no transport system, no sewage system. A barren levelled landscape of death. Gaza City has been under strict Israeli siege for seven weeks. No bread, no water, no fuel, no medicines have been allowed to enter the area. The people – the children – are starving. And all the time the international community with a few honourable exceptions does nothing – is complicit in this genocide.All that FussA friend of mine in County Tyrone was taking her seven year old daughter to her local Gael Scoil when the child drew her attention to the road sign for Londonderry. Someone had drawn a line through the London bit.‘Why is that like that Mammy?' She asked. So Mammy gave a children's explanation. ‘But they are both wrong' the child replied ‘It's not Londonderry or Derry. Its Doire.'And that dear readers is why there is all that fuss about Irish or bilingual signage.
