Israel stands accused of numerous violations of the Gaza ceasefire that was implemented in October 2025, with reports of over 100 children dying in the region during the first 100 days of the suspension of hostilities.

At 8.30am on July 8, 1985, a 15-seater aircraft with a full complement of passengers took off from Waterford airport to London Gatwick on the inaugural flight of a new Irish airline called Ryanair.

The right-wing dating site Whitedate.net, dubbed the ‘Nazi Tinder’, has dozens of members across Ireland. But only one of them mentions love as a motivation, many mention the need to “breed” for the “white race”. The site’s thousands of profiles were leaked online after a hack. A lonely Belfast man said he was looking for a “lady who has never been soiled by other races” and “a bride willing to have children, in order to stop the destruction of our people.” Olivia Peden is joined by Belfast Telegraph reporter Kurtis Reid. *This podcast was first published by our sister podcast The BelTel on Mon Jan 19th 2026.* See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
