Christmas is officially over, and I am newly settled in #Dublin. My partner starts her job at DCU this week, and I am officially funemployed until April! 🎉
The distance between #Dublin and #London is only 464 km (288 miles), #asthecrowflies. The two capital cities are in a Common Travel Area.
But as #GretaThunberg learnt today, it's about a million miles in politics.
In Dublin, #PresidentConnolly regards the #genocide in #Gaza as a horror. But in London, the #CityOfLondonPolice treat opposition to genocide as #Terrorism. So #Greta went from a presidential welcome in #Ireland to arrest in #England / #UK.

1/1 Trinity College Library
On a brief trip to Ireland in September I visited Trinity College Library for the first time. It was very crowded and most of the books had been removed for a refurb. But it's still a splendid space.
