Gaelic speakers in the Scottish Parliament? — DJP (2026)
This news goes back around six weeks but I only found out about it tonight after a Google and ChatGPT
search.
Yikes!
The Irish Dáil has a good few Irish speakers. The proportion of Irish-speaking councillors is a lot smaller
and I believe more indicative of the true proportion of Irish speakers in Ireland. I don't pay as much
interest to the Seanad so am not sure about it off the top of my head in relation to cainteoirí Gaeilge but
the proportion of Irish speakers elected to it has been traditionally a lot less than in the Dáil I believe.
I think it is great the way Irish-speaking politicians can contribute to the Irish-language media.

This is a radical statement I believe! Maybe sorrow and pain don't mean the same thing.

Stop smoking every day? World No Tobacco Day — DJP (2026)
I posted here a couple of months ago about my first attempt to stop smoking cigarettes in years.
Today the 31st May is World No Tobacco Day 2026. See my update on Facebook below as to how I got
on trying to give them up and below that see a couple of, to me, rather unique jpegs I saw and saved on
Linkedin today. The line of thinking in those two jpegs is very good I think for helping people give up
addictions or at least seriously want at some point to give them up.
