That's not the real problem.
The real problem is the economic and...
energy system that the government is still investing in, which is burning the planet.
Ed Miliband is a champion of climate action and moving him out of the climate ministry where he is now could see a weakening of domestic UK climate policy and talk that he might reopen the North Sea to oil and gas drilling, which again is like vice signalling.
It won't actually reduce the price, but it'll look like he's doing something to increase the supply of what's causing all these problems.
Yes, the article is actually more about the football match than it is about the OTB, but we might come back to the OTB.
And he's basically saying, how can we be consistent about this Qatar, who Ireland is playing this week, have an appalling human rights record and there's nothing like the same level of concern among the Irish public.
But on the other hand, obviously, there's a huge concern about Israel coming to play on the 4th of October.
And he's saying, you know...
will this be in the interest of Ireland?
What might the repercussions be?
But he also points out that the Dunstor's strike against apartheid goods from South Africa in the 1980s did have an effect.
And I think, I don't know if anyone saw Richard Sadley speak after the match on Thursday, saying the Israeli flag would be flying from that pole over there.
And obviously we saw recently Ben Gavir, the security minister in Israel, wave the Israeli flag over activists from all around Europe
having them in stress positions on the floor, taunting them for being activists trying to bring aid to Gaza.
So I think it's just inappropriate for Ireland to host Israel here and play football against them when there's still the aftermath of a genocidal campaign in Gaza.
There's still an invasion of Lebanon happening as we speak.
There's settlement in the West Bank.
There's violence in the West Bank.
There's been blacklisted by the UN this week for using sexual violence in conflict.
