    Pregnant rough sleepers, autism charity controversy, and a seagull screeching competition

    Five pregnant women who were forced to sleep rough in Dublin last year were among over 100 mothers who gave birth at the National Maternity Hospital while either homeless or at risk of homelessness. The alleged transfer of more than €1.5 million of taxpayers’ money from an Irish autism charity to its UK parent charity could be a “breach” of the Companies Act and “possibly a criminal offence”, it is claimed in internal correspondence within the charity. Wedged in the middle of a pub packed full of people screeching like seagulls to the tune of happy birthday, Jack Power had one of those record-scratch moments. How did I get here? Donald Clarke gives a “grudging three stars” to The Devil Wears Prada 2 in cinemas today. Lovely clothes. Savage quips. And a cameo by a celebrated Irish golfer.

    Crime and drug deaths in Dublin's southwest inner city, cost rental homes, and Chris O'Dowd's GAA career

    Of around 7,000 children who live in Dublin’s southwest inner city, fewer than four in every ten of them go to secondary school, while a new study finds crime rates and drug deaths are twice the national average there. Since applications opened for the first cost-rental housing development in Balbriggan in north Dublin in July 2021, every scheme has been vastly over-subscribed. But recent viability assessments are putting a question mark over the model’s future. The attempted murder of veteran criminal and upcoming by-election candidate Gerry Hutch (59) is one of the conspiracies in which the State will allege cartel leader Daniel Kinahan (48) was involved when he goes on trial. Hollywood actor Chris O’Dowd is reminiscing about his formative years playing for Roscommon - as the current team gears up to take on Mayo in this weekend’s Connacht semi-final.
