Why can't we build anything? We dig into the Dublin Metro being dragged back into court by the cavemen of Ranelagh and unpack how a tiny, well-lawyered minority can stall infrastructure for an entire city. From there, we bring in writer and analyst Dan Wang, whose book Breakneck argues that China is an engineering state, run by people who build, while America, Ireland and the wider Anglosphere have become lawyer states, run by people who litigate. China lays highways and high-speed rail at warp speed; common-law countries file objections and environmental reports. Europe, meanwhile, risks turning into a mausoleum economy with great croissants, beautiful cities, and a shrinking industrial base. We ask does China's engineering mindset can deliver both stunning bridges and harsh social controls? Does a world of tariffs, security fears and cyber-fragility forces us to rethink who we let run the show: the builders or the barristers? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The long-awaited MetroLink line, which will finally connect Dublin Airport to the city by rail, has been approved by An Coimisiún Pleanála, three years after planning permission was sought.The 18.8km rail line, expected to cost more than €10 billion, was first proposed a quarter of a century ago and is anticipated to begin operations in the mid-2030s.Travelling mostly underground, the remote-controlled, driverless trains will run every three minutes from Swords in north Dublin to Charlemont close to Ranelagh in south Dublin. The route will have 16 stops serving areas including Dublin Airport, Ballymun, Glasnevin, Phibsborough and the city centre.A trip from Swords to the city centre is expected to take about 25 minutes, while journeys from the airport to the city will take about 20 minutes.But what happens if there is a judicial challenge to the planning permission? And what if “unknown, unknown” issues arise and the bill doubles as has been imagined? And when will the first passengers hop on board?Irish Times Dublin editor Olivia Kelly explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Andrew McNair. Hosted on Acast.

We follow how a remote landmass on the far western fringe of Europe became the home of a lasting Gaelic civilization and a major center of classical and Christian knowledge, before coming under attack by Viking raiders and Anglo-Norman invaders. We examine the English Crown's shifting and increasingly desperate strategies to control Ireland, and the long battle over control of land and religion before Ireland was finally subjected to Protestant domination following the Glorious Revolution.

In his brilliant new book Strangeland, Jon turns his razor-sharp eye on post-Brexit Britain, peeling back the layers of a nation that feels unfamiliar even to someone who grew up here.

En 1541 Enrique VIII de Inglaterra se proclamó rey de Irlanda, un título que no existía pero que ordenó al parlamento crear para que sirviese de justificación para la invasión completa de la isla, algo que los monarcas ingleses habían intentado anteriormente pero sin éxito. Controlar toda la isla les llevó más de 60 años, al término de los cuales convirtieron convirtieron la isla vecina en algo parecido a una colonia. Impusieron la ley inglesa sobre los señores gaélicos y procedieron a la confiscación de sus tierras. No fue algo pacífico. Los irlandeses se resistieron abrazando con ímpetu la fe católica. Durante el reinado de Isabel I rebeliones como la de Desmond y la Guerra de los Nueve Años, fueron aplastadas sin piedad. Al final, en 1607, los condes Hugh O’Neill y Rory O’Donnell sabiéndose rodeados y sin posibilidad de resistir más huyeron a España para pedir ayuda a Felipe III poniendo de este modo fin a la conquista inglesa. Poco después comenzó la colonización del Úlster, un proyecto inglés que perseguía asentar colonos protestantes llegados desde Gran Bretaña en el norte de la isla. Eso implicaba el desplazamiento de la población católica nativa de la que los ingleses no se fiaban. La llegada de los colonos provocó una división religiosa en esta zona de la isla que aún se mantiene. La idea era colonizar toda la isla hasta dejar a la población local en minoría, pero la Inglaterra de aquel entonces era un reino poco poblado y de posibilidades limitadas. Los irlandeses siguieron resistiéndose. Se produjo una gran rebelión de 1641, seguida por la intervención de Oliver Cromwell en 1649, que consolidó el control inglés con una brutalidad que dejó cicatrices muy profundas en la isla. Cromwell, un puritano proveniente de Anglia, confiscó tierras para entregárselas a sus seguidores, y relegó a los irlandeses católicos a un estatus de segunda clase. Las Leyes Penales del siglo XVIII agravaron sus problemas. Prohibían directamente a los católicos poseer tierras, votar o acceder a educación. La élite protestante lo dominaba todo desde Dublín y Belfast, la capital del Ulster fundada por los colonos. El objetivo del Gobierno británico era que los irlandeses nativos se asimilasen a la fuerza hasta que la cultura y la lengua irlandesa terminasen desapareciendo. Pero no sucedió nada de eso. En el siglo XIX surgió el nacionalismo irlandés. La Gran Hambruna de 1845, provocada por una plaga y agravada por la indiferencia británica, acabó con la vida de un millón de irlandeses y forzó la emigración de otro millón, lo que redujo drásticamente la población. Este desastre avivó el resentimiento contra el dominio inglés y dio impulso al nacionalismo. Movimientos como los Jóvenes Irlandeses y, más tarde, la Hermandad Republicana Irlandesa comenzaron a exigir la independencia. La lucha por la emancipación y el autogobierno ganaron fuerza con Daniel O’Connell y Charles Stewart Parnell, pero se toparon con la feroz oposición de los unionistas del Úlster, quienes temían perder su identidad protestante en un Irlanda mayoritariamente católica. La primera guerra mundial sirvió de catalizador para todas estas tensiones que se habían acumulado en el siglo anterior. El Alzamiento de Pascua de 1916, aunque inicialmente fallido, incrementó el apoyo popular al Sinn Féin y al IRA. La Guerra de Independencia de 1919 forzó al Reino Unido a negociar. El resultado fue el Tratado Anglo-Irlandés de 1921. Irlanda recuperaba la independencia, pero no toda la isla. De los 32 condados que tenía seis de ellos permanecieron bajo control británico conformando Irlanda del Norte. La partición desató una breve guerra civil en el sur entre los partidarios y los detractores del tratado liderados por figuras como Éamon de Valera y Michael Collins. Los partidarios se impusieron dando lugar a la actual República de Irlanda. Pero la cuestión irlandesa no quedaba del todo resuelta con eso. Años después reviviría en los denominados “Troubles" que no concluyeron hasta 1998.

Sexually Transmitted Infections, or STIs, were on the rise in 2024 – showing worrying signs. It follows a huge uptick the year before, with Ireland not set to reach its target of eliminating sexual diseases by 2030.Joining Adrian Kennedy to discuss the increase is Dr. Derek Freedman – a Specialist Consultant in Sexual Health and Sexually Transmitted Diseases based in Ranelagh.

Dublin Bay South is one of the most hotly contested constituencies in the country. Four seats are up for grabs in a territory stretching from Terenure to Sandymount; encompassing young populations in Ranelagh and Rathmines and more working class areas around. Reporter Barry Lenihan is on the ground in the Dublin Bay South.

These are some very challenging times for retail and hospitality here, with news this week that men's fashion retailer Alias Tom was placed into liquidation while high profile Dublin restaurant Shanahan's on St Stephen's Green closed, and Dillinger's in Ranelagh will close in November after 16 years in operation.On Tuesday, hundreds of hospitality, tourism, retail, and other small business owners protested in Dublin outside Leinster House about the increasing costs of doing business here, with many of those costs being Government imposed. The Restaurant Association of Ireland was one of the groups that organised that protest, and its CEO Adrian Cummins joins Inside Business host Ciarán Hancock to discuss the key issues raised at the protest, while Eoin Burke Kennedy of The Irish Times explains the backdrop to Alias Tom's winding up this week.At the end of last month, the Government announced that the much talked about auto enrolment private sector pension scheme would finally come into effect in September 2025.A report in the Irish Independent suggested there could be a tax sting in the tail for those workers, following the release of the Finance Bill last week. Dominic Coyle, The Irish Times resident pensions expert, outlines what's being proposed in the Finance Bill for auto enrolment.Produced by John Casey with JJ Vernon on sound. Hosted on Acast.

Actually, she and Sorcha both reach for the last punnet of kumquats in the shop and I watch Sorcha's body shape change to fight mode until Rebecca goes, “Sorcha! How are you? Oh my God, look at you! You must weigh nothing!” Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

AWS GetIT is a fully funded education programme and competition designed to inspire 12-14-year-old students, especially girls, to consider a future in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics). The programme gives them access to curriculum designed to help build foundational skills, learn about cloud tech, and design app ideas to solve real-life problems. Schools are paired with a dedicated AWS GetIT Ambassador who supports the school and educator and acts as a role model for students. After completing the programme curriculum, schools can submit a student app idea for consideration in a countrywide AWS GetIT competition. This year, three schools were brought to the AWS GetIT final, which took place at the AWS offices in Dublin. The teams in the final presented their ideas to a judging panel of people working in the tech industry. The finalists were invited to present their App ideas on the day and answer questions surrounding their design thinking cycle, teamwork, the issue they are tackling and the technology they will use. The AWS GetIT finalists were: 1. 1. Fit Quick by Coláiste Abhainn Rí, Callan, Co. Kilkenny - App aimed at tackling young people dropping out of sporting activity, particularly during the transition from primary to secondary school. The app is aimed at 11-19 year olds with the overall goal of encouraging maintaining interest in sport and physical activity during their teenage years. 2. Job Box Celbridge Community School, Co Kildare - App aimed at helping young people aged 18-25 find accommodation and employment. The team acknowledged how homeless is a huge social issue and the app aims to support young people with resource information on housing, as well as assist them on their job search journeys. 3. Puzzled by Sandford Park School, Ranelagh, Dublin - App focused on providing support resources for secondary school students with learning difficulties. The app contains resources aimed at helping students overcome challenges they are having with schoolwork and includes a fun mascot called 'Pablo' to guide app users on their journey. Mark Dunleavy, General Manager, AWS Ireland and Northern Ireland, said: "On behalf of AWS, I'd like to congratulate the contestants in this year's AWS GetIT competition; each year, we are completely blown away by the high level of innovation and creativity shown by secondary students across Ireland. AWS GetIT empowers and inspires 12-14-year-olds to consider a future in STEM and learn other key skills such as problem-solving and teamwork. It is also an opportunity for them to get face-to-face time with AWS ambassadors and gain real insight into what it is like to work in tech. At AWS, we hope that taking part in this competition is their first step in a journey towards an exciting and rewarding career in STEM." Jane Dawson Howe, Country Manager Ireland, Slalom and AWS GetIT judge, said: "I was thrilled to be involved with AWS GetIT 2024. I was so impressed with the quality of the finalists' projects and their determination to solve real-world problems. I was also amazed at their confidence and how they communicated the impact of their ideas. Congratulations to all the students (and their teachers) on developing such compelling solutions. The future of technology for societal good is in the right hands!" Frances Abeton, CEO and Co-Founder of Whyze Health and AWS GetIT judge, said: "I was truly captivated by the calibre of projects presented at the AWS GetIT competition. The students' work was not just impressive, but it also showcased their exceptional talent and creativity. This experience has reinforced my belief in the significant impact of integrating technology education in schools. It was a true privilege to witness such potential and support an initiative that empowers young people to excel in the tech industry."
