IT HAS BEEN a tumultuous year in Irish news.
From the marriage referendum to the tragedy in Berkeley to the killing of Garda Tony Golden, from protests to fires to celebrations, 2015 has been an opportunity for Ireland’s press photographers to do some of their best work.
Here are 25 of the best news photographs taken in 2015.

The ubiquitous Panti Bliss.
Probably the most annoying ‘person’ on planet earth right now.
(and yes, I have included Donald Trump and Angela Merkel)
No Al Porter?
There are 24 other pictures.
Only one lepped off the page at me…like a waking nightmare.
You fairly annoying yourself lad.
You seem to love commenting on her!
‘Her’?
You have a secret crush on her, Isaac. Don’t lie. Have a faaaabulous Christmas darling. ;)
please rearrange the photos
a paragraph that mentions the murder of Tony Golden (or any other Garda) should not be followed by a photo of Gerry Adams smiling
its no secret what SF/IRA did to Jerry McCabe
Leave that bollix Phil Hogan in quarantine. Best place for him
That hazardous warning sing suits Phil Hogan
Why don’t you setup a utility and make a balls of it. You too will be on the path to success.
Members of Republican Sinn Féin on 6 April covering their faces like the cowards they are
You were doing so well! i was just thinking great no picture of the very annoying panti bliss and then boom! right at the end
Obsessed
It’s a pity the guards can’t just give thugs like that one in the picture a thump when they try that!
Qwerty you’ll be in trouble with that one. The red thumb tappin Shinnerbots are revving up their engines
Nobody’s more used to being on the receiving end of red thumbs than myself Aiden.
Aidan, my apologies.
Picture 2 you mean? Thats May 22. The lads are about to embrace
The guard isn’t “squaring up”.
@ filthypete
the caption was obviously written by a member of the NO side
Enda, it was a water charges protest. Not everything was about the marriage referendum, despite your obvious fixation with it.
@ Lloyd Hetherington
i mean the no side as in NO way we wont pay
No you didn’t!
Had there been a “YES, we will pay” side, I maybe could have believed that.
Nice try though.
That Panti Bliss lad needs to F R O & bring Al Porter with him
I hope we never see a republican sinn fein march like that again in Dublin.
@ stopit
murder + abuse = SF IRA
they might as well dress as Wayne Dundon or Larry Murphy
Jayzus.. That pox panti bliss, and God help us if we say something against it! Was just enjoying the photos until they yoke went and spoiled it all.
Just the 4 referendum pics? Losing your touch Journal. The obligatory Panties pic included of course
@ Keano
i was glad when John Waters won the case
Panti broke the law full stop
Enda. There was no case. RTE just threw the money at Waters, knee-jerk stylee. There wasn’t any dialogue.
@ Lloyd Hetherington
remember the brendan o’connor homophobia debate
RTE just pandered to the gay community, knee-jerk style. There wasn’t any debate
Should be called : “25 best caucasian homogeneity/patriarchal subversion photos”. 4 gay marriage photos. An ‘aawww shucks’ moment between a gay politician with a child. Child murder advocates displaying their bloodlust. And a load of gullible idiots too young to know any better welcoming foreign immvaders to cuckold the Emerald Isle. “We wish you a pozzy new year”
On first glance I thought that the art exhibition was taken at a Donald Trump rally.
Car on fire on O Connell bridge I don’t think so sir !
One picture of same sex referendum wud been enough
have your say
