Michael O'Leary labels rival airlines 'high-fare rapists'

Date posted: 25 days ago
Description: Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary has said it is “absolutely” appropriate to compare other airlines to “rapists”.

Mr O’Leary made the remarks ahead of his airline’s annual general meeting in Dublin today.

The billionaire businessman claimed rising air travel prices at other airlines would see passengers switch to Ryanair.

He told reporters at the company’s headquarters: “You might find some people will choose not to fly with Ryanair – but you know they’ll be overrun with the people abandoning Aer Lingus, Lufthansa, BA, and others desperate to get to Ryanair’s low fares because they can’t afford to fly with the high-fare rapists around Europe.”

'No crisis in the GAA' but no clear timeline on integration

Title: 'No crisis in the GAA' but no clear timeline on integration
Runtime: 5:42
Date posted: 26 days ago
Description: GAA president Jarlath Burns has denied there is a "crisis" within the organisation after what he has described as a "constructive" meeting with Sport Minister Patrick O'Donovan, following a dramatic 24 hours around the subject of integration.

Asked by reporters after the meeting what the timeline for amalgamation looks like now, Mr Burns said: "We're not going to get caught into timelines."

Former Irish president Mary McAleese resigned as chairperson of steering committee on integration on Monday, describing the GAA’s stalling on the agreed timelines for integration as “almost like a betrayal of the women in our sporting cultures.”

McAleese stepped down after an ISG meeting yesterday where the GAA’s representatives pointed out that the agreed 2027 deadline — Special Congresses were to take place next month — could not be met.

The British prime minister’s unequivocal dismissal of any prospect of a border poll has reignited a long-running debate about who gets to decide Northern Ireland’s future, and when that moment should come.

But strip away the politics, and one question remains: in an Ireland that’s changing socially and demographically, would a vote for unity actually succeed?

Is there a genuine appetite for a united Ireland north and south of the Border?

And what can past referendums and reunification projects across Europe tell us about the challenges ahead?

On today’s Indo Daily, Tessa Fleming is joined by the Irish Independent‘s John Downing to examine the question that has shaped Irish politics for generations: could a border ...
