EVERY WEEKDAY EVENING, The Journal brings you five of the biggest news stories of the day.

1. #ECONOMY Irish GDP fell by 4.6% in the first quarter of 2023, nearly two percentage points more than anticipated.

2. #TATHONY HOUSE A has taken place outside a block of apartments in Kilmainham, Dublin 8, to coincide the date on which its tenants had been ordered to move out by.

3. #REFUGEES Two government departments are clashing after a review on the ban to stop nursing home operators from converting their facilities into emergency accommodation said a two-year obstruction should remain in place

4. #CLIMATE The Taoiseach has said the government is not conceding that it will not meet its climate commitments, after a report said nearly all sectors are on track to exceed their emissions ceilings for 2025 and 2030.

5.#PHILLIP SCHOFIELD The former ITV presenter has said the backlash to revelations about an affair he had with a much younger colleague has had a “catastrophic effect” on him, and he has pleaded with the public to leave the young man alone.

    RIP – and condolences to the family?
    But to the “journalists” and their “editor”
    Duggan was an English, Religion and SPHE at Rosmini Community School, Dublin. Before being elected ASTI President, Duggan served as ASTI Vice President between 2021 and 2022 [SIC]
    Do you not even bother to proof read your own work now?
    The late Ms Duggan was an English, religion and SPHE what?

    Miriam was my English teacher for my final 3 years in Rosmini in the late 90′s. A proper influence with nothing but students development in mind. I often think of her so fondly when I look back on school days. What a loss to the profession this is. RIP to one of the best.
