Mikel Arteta has warned his Arsenal players that they can join a different club if they can’t cope with the pressure of a Premier League title race. The Gunners suffered a chastening 2-2 draw to bottom-placed side Wolves on Wednesday which has thrown the title race open. Manchester City are two points behind the north London club at the top with Arsenal having now won just twice in seven league matches. When asked how he will stop the outside noise affecting his players, Arteta said: ‘You ask them the question: “Do you want to be part of the noise, or not?"

The chair of the Public Accounts Committee has said that the fact a residence used by former Garda Commissioner Drew Harris remains empty more than six months after Mr Harris left office “defies belief”. The OPW has confirmed that the former Commissioner’s Phoenix Park residence Spa Lodge, on which more than €600,000 was spent in refurbishments and security upgrades prior to Mr Harris taking up residence, is one of 11 State-owned properties in the park currently lying idle. Former Commissioner Harris left his post last September after a seven-year term. The OPW said in its statement to Mr Brady that the 11 properties vacant “require upgrading (or) refurbishment or and not currently suitable for occupation”. It is unclear whether Mr Harris or An Garda Siochana paid the rent in question.

Scoliosis and spina bifida advocacy groups have threatened to take a case in the High Court against health minister Jennifer Carroll MacNeill over delays to a statutory inquiry into spinal care at Children’s Health Ireland. The Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Paediatric Advocacy Group and Scoliosis Advocacy Network sent a letter to the minister saying they are considering High Court action. This week, 62 children were recalled for spinal care at Children’s Health Ireland as part of a review into the work of an orthopaedic consultant at CHI and at the National Orthopaedic Hospital in Cappagh. Ms Carroll MacNeill has been urged to progress the public inquiry. Ms Coughlan Santry told the Irish Examiner the two advocacy groups were “not happy” with how Ms Carroll MacNeill appointed a facilitator to scope out the inquiry’s terms of reference.

Vegan food has grown up alongside us, moving from niche cafes to supermarket aisles, restaurant tasting menus and home kitchens all over the country. For my own part, I’ll admit something that probably won’t surprise anyone: I’ve rarely, if ever, cooked completely vegan. Not through any resistance, but because my cooking instinctively leans on butter, cream and cheese for comfort and depth. I found myself gravitating towards cabbage and cauliflower, two ingredients that have been quietly waiting in the wings for their moment. In these two recipes, that’s exactly what I’ll be doing: showcasing cabbage and cauliflower in all their glory.

As soon as the Clare-Cork Munster SHC opening round robin game ended last year, I bolted out of Cusack Park to find a TV to watch Tipperary-Limerick in Thurles. I was hopeful of a good game but I wasn’t sure if we’d get one. Tipp had been well beaten by Cork in the league final and I wasn’t sure if that result had set Liam Cahill’s side back. I didn’t think Limerick was the best opening game for Tipp to have because Limerick had beaten them so often. And not just beaten Tipp, but hammered them.

In a bombshell email, a whistleblower told the Palace that the former Duke had secret financial links to controversial millionaire financier David Rowland, who was abusing his royal links. Andrew once told Epstein that Mr Rowland was his ‘trusted money man’. Over a period of several years, Andrew repeatedly alerted Mr Rowland to business opportunities arising from his work. Mr Rowland once gave Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson £40,000 to help clear debts and, in 2017, paid off a £1.5million loan for Andrew. The ambassador put government staff at the Rowlands’ disposal, while Andrew gave David Rowland his schedule for a trip to Montenegro as UK trade envoy.
