She said Rwanda remains "central" to the government's promise to stop Channel crossings and "both are saying it is part of the plan, it is not all of the plan". The Irish language has indeed thirty-two words for field, among them:Geamhar- a field of corn-grass.Tuar- a field for cattle at night.Reidhlean- a field for games or dancing.Cathairin- a field with a fairy-dwelling in it. The richness of a language closely tied to the natural landscape offered our ancestors a more magical way of seeing the world. Before we cast old words aside, let us consider the sublime beauty and profound oddness of the ancient tongue that has been spoken on this island for almost 3,000 years. A cabinet minister has played down the suggestion of a government split on the Rwanda asylum plan after the home secretary said it was not the "be all and end all" of migration policy. Traditionally, some have used euphemisms to get around the rules - most famously Sir Winston Churchill when he said someone had told a "terminological exactitude" instead of a lie. Unparliamentary language is defined as anything that "breaks the rules of politeness of the House of Commons chamber".

While MPs are disciplined for swearing during debates, convention also bans them from calling their colleagues liars or accusing them of being drunk, among other things. When politicians use words deemed unparliamentary, the speaker will either ask them to withdraw them, or if they refuse, leave the chamber. We have successfully, in the last year, bought the numbers of people coming over here illegally down by a third," she said. Tá tríocha dó bealaí sa Ghaeilge leis an bhfocal ‘gort’ nó ‘páirc’ a rá. Ina measc tá geamhar, ina bhfásann arbhar; reidhlean ina n-imrítear cluichí agus ina mbíonn damhsaí ar siúl; nó cathairin, áit ina mbíonn na síoga ina gcónaí.

Clíodhna Ní Anluainis aradio producer and book editor with RTÉ. She has recently been appointed Curator of Leaves Festival of Writing and Music 2021.For her current RTÉ Radio 1SPOKEN STORIES Independence series, she commissioned 12 new stories from prominent writers, from a consideration of what Independence could mean today, a hundred years after Ireland's War of Independence. Earlier this month at least 86 men, women and children drowned off the coast of Calabria trying to seek refuge in Italy. In the last decade tens of thousands of refugees and migrants have died in the Mediterranean, creating what Pope Francis has called Europe's largest graveyard. Attempts by European’s governments to turn the continent into ‘fortress Europe’ have created a humanitarian catastrophe for those fleeing drought, famine, war and depression. Much of the reporting of this ongoing tragedy has been done by Irish journalist Sally Hayden whose recent book The Fourth Time We Drowned won the Orwell Prize, and was named the An Post Irish Book of the Year. Sally’s courageous work has revealed the human stories of those who have faced violence, abuse and even death in Libyan detention camps funded by European governments and the lengths to which international institutions have gone to cover up such crimes. In 2008, Sally received a Facebook message that began, ‘ Hi sister Sally, we need your help’. In the conversations that followed she discovered how people were being detained in Libya in the most horrendous conditions. In front of a live audience at Ireland's Edge in Dingle, she spoke to Ireland's Edge host Chris Kissane about Europe's moral responsibilities in a time of refugee crises and mass migration.

The actress is asked about the politics of this matter, and the refusal of politicians to commit to attending such marches.
