Ireland asks a great deal of its Defence Forces cadets. Cadet pay remains the lowest in the Defence Forces, at just €503 per week, compared to €550 for a recruit, rising to €627 after 12 weeks. At a time when the Defence Forces are struggling with recruitment and retention across all ranks, that is a self-inflicted wound. The financial strain of living on cadet pay makes joining the Defence Forces less attractive, potentially limiting the pool of highly motivated candidates. Improving cadet pay is not just a matter of fairness, it is essential to attracting, supporting, and retaining talented personnel in the Defence Forces.

Staffys, Dachshunds and Frenchies amongst 67 breeds facing UK banA 10-point checklist scoring a dog breed’s health could be imposedView Image Alert watchful Staffordshire Bull Terrier (Image: Getty Images)Staffordshire Bull terriers, Dachshunds and French Bulldogs are just three of 67 dog breeds which face being banned in the UK. The Innate Health Assessment (IHA) promotes healthy dog breeding and says that the proposed new legislation would mean banning corgis, dachshunds, Westies, chihuahuas and Shih Tzus. Obligatory use of the Innate Health Assessment would be an excellent first step towards ending cruel and exploitative dog breeding for good." Indeed, many breeds cited as at risk — including corgis and dachshunds — have already passed the assessment in practice." While the tool is currently voluntary, it is already being used by some councils to judge if breeders are producing healthy dogs, and could become law within five years.

Photograph: Jim Watson/AFP via Getty ImagesOpposition parties have strongly criticised Taoiseach Micheál Martin over his failure to “call out” US president Donald Trump’s foreign policy during the St Patrick’s Day meeting in the Oval Office. Taoiseach Micheál Martin defended migration in Europe and UK prime minister Keir Starmer in a meeting with US president Donald Trump. “[Martin] did not represent the views of the Irish people, who are appalled at Trump’s lawless and belligerent presidency,” she said.

Rayan Cherki hit a snap-shot straight at Thibaut Courtois, Courtois produced a brilliant save from a Rodri thunderbolt and Dean Huijsen blocked a shot from Tijjani Reijnders. Haaland thought he had scored with a close-range shot but Courtois, again, produced a stunning save. This could be the last time Pep Guardiola manages Manchester City in the Champions LeagueAmid the chaos, Guardiola was booked for dissent. City kept pressing for a second, a goal that would at least give them victory on the night. Kylian Mbappe, who had been missing through injury in the first leg, came on for a cameo and was booked.

Despite his best efforts to interject and direct the face-to-face in the Oval Office to the Irish media’s side of the room, this was Trump 101, with everything from Iran to China to windmills on the US president's hit list.
He's stepped up impressively and can add a Champions League stunner to his memorable moments this year. Flying the flag for EnglandAll that talk of the Premier League dominating Europe has quickly dried and come the end of Tuesday two had gone with only one remaining. Arsenal marched on as Manchester City and Chelsea both saw their Champions League hopes ended for at least another 12 months. But the Gunners are much more than a team who rely solely on deliveries into the box as Eze and Rice proved. Arsenal hold a huge advantage over Pep Guardiola's men in the Premier League and beating them on Sunday could be the final nail in their coffin - and the first part of an unprecedented quadruple.
