Irish Taoiseach Micheál Martin says we must prepare for the prospect of a No Deal.
What would this actually mean?
Our two-part @PassportIrish series last year explored the consequences for ordinary people where the stakes are highest.

In part one, a doctor told us of his concerns about risks to the supply of vital medicines for his patients.
Young people told us about changes to their rights and future prospects.
Security correspondent @AllisonMorris1 told us about rising tensions. theirishpassport.com/podcast/s3-epi…
In part two, a small business owner told us about facing the loss of everything she has built due to the supply chain disruption a crash exit would cause.
People who live cross-border explained how events have torn up a settlement key for day to day life

A story I’ve been working on for a while is out.
How tenants in the property empire of Luxembourg landlord Marc Godart are surveilled in their kitchens with CCTV that records audio and video - and mercilessly evicted if they complain
irishtimes.com/ireland/2024/0…
Our investigation reveals new details on the Godart beds-for-rent operation in Dublin, thanks to a whistleblower who worked within it.
208 beds are offered across 19 different properties. In Cork Street, one property has 33 beds in a single house irishtimes.com/ireland/2024/0…
In Reuben House, where tenants were controversially evicted last year to make way for unauthorised short-stay lets, rooms are stacked with three-tier bunk beds, with six adults sharing some rooms, photos and internal documents show irishtimes.com/ireland/2024/0…

The World Health Organisation has described what it found in Al Shifa hospital, after it led a dangerous mission to reach it.
Among the patients still unable to evacuate are "32 babies in extremely critical condition"
I don't think history will forget this
emro.who.int/media/news/who…
"Due to time limits associated with the security situation, the team was able to spend only one hour inside the hospital, which they described as a “death zone"".
This is not a typical WHO statement.

"Signs of shelling and gunfire were evident. The team saw a mass grave at the entrance of the hospital and were told more than 80 people were buried there."
Not a typical World Health Organisation statement.

There is deep concern among EU institutions and capitals that by appearing to sanction Israel's expected invasion of Gaza, von der Leyen has squandered the EU's credibility - including on Ukraine.
She had no mandate to visit Israel from the member states.
irishtimes.com/world/middle-e…
She arrived in Israel as it ordered the displacement of 1 mln people in Gaza, to the vocal horror of the UN, and said not one word about it.
Instead, she shook hands with Benjamin Netanyahu for the cameras.
This does not reflect the EU position.
My piece:
irishtimes.com/world/middle-e…
In her public declarations since the horrific Hamas attack von der Leyen has yet to call for restraint or respect for international law in Israel's response, instead declaring the EU's support "in the next weeks".
This does not reflect member states' view

Croatia becomes the 20th country to join the euro today.
These are the Croatian Euro coins that are now coming into circulation and being given as change in Croatian shops as the country says goodbye to the Kuna
irishtimes.com/business/econo…
Croatia's one euro coin bears the kuna or marten, which is the country's national animal and gave its name to the old currency due to a tradition of using its pelts as a unit of exchange in historical times.
The checkerboard pattern features on all coins, another Croatian symbol
Croatia's 10, 20, and 50 cent Euro coins bear the face of inventor Nikola Tesla, the pioneering engineer and developer of wireless and electricity technologies that gave his name to the car brand irishtimes.com/business/econo…

Ireland has one of the highest levels of public sympathy towards Ukrainians of any EU country, according to the latest Eurobarometer survey - the numbers of those saying they aren't sympathetic are small enough to be a statistical error
Over half of respondents in Ireland said they "totally agree" that Ukraine should join the EU when it is ready - only Lithuania had a higher level of strong support for that question.
Military aid and cooperation can be controversial in Ireland so you might expect mixed views on these issues, but interestingly the survey showed strong majorities for sending military aid to Ukraine, and saying more EU military cooperation is needed in response to the war

The embassies of Ireland and Ukraine to the EU this week jointly hosted the European premiere of this film, which features ordinary women in Ukraine – train conductors, paramedics, war crimes investigators – holding the fabric of the country together irishtimes.com/world/europe/2…
I moderated a discussion with Olga Hamama of refugee service United for Ukraine and Oleksandra Matviichuk @avalaina, the human rights lawyer who was on her way back from accepting the Nobel peace prize in Oslo, and who features in the documentary irishtimes.com/world/europe/2…
A human rights lawyer, Matviichuk told us her organisation the Centre for Civil Liberties had documented evidence 27,000 war crimes. It's far beyond what Ukraine’s justice system could conceivably process. irishtimes.com/world/europe/2…
