Great article from @freyamcc.bsky.social Side bonus that my new book “Before the Vote: planning for a United Ireland” gets a mention. Book available Monday. As an open access academic book it is free to download, but if you prefer a book in print see next comment www.irishtimes.com/politics/202...

The story of the passion and drive behind the creation of Voice of America and its reporting in the 1940s was an important one to tell so I’m thrilled my programme ‘The Start of Voice of America’ was a BBC Radio 4 pick of the week #VOA

Great, well-written story! @freyamcc.bsky.social “There is no Northern Ireland golf team – soccer’s the only sport I know of that’s separate in Ireland – and sport itself, not just golf, it brings people together, it brings this country together. www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2025...
