The Defence Forces assessed the plan for Minister for Defence Helen McEntee to visit Lebanon and advised it was 'not tenable' given the unpredictable security situation on the ground. Photograph: Bryan O’BrienMinister for Defence Helen McEntee was forced to cancel a visit to Lebanon this week after the Defence Forces advised it would be too dangerous to travel. The “Ryanair turnaround”, as one security source described it, aimed to protect the Defence Forces personnel on board the aircraft, including a leadership team, and lessen the potential for the €70 million aircraft to be damaged.

However, the Defence Forces assessed the plan and advised it was “not tenable” given the unpredictable security situation on the ground.

Following the Blues’ Champions League defeat to Paris St Germain in March, Fernandez said he did not know whether he will be at Chelsea next season. “As a football club, with me as part of the decision, he won’t be available for tomorrow’s game or Manchester City next Sunday. “Enzo, firstly, as a character, a person and a player, I have the utmost respect,” said Rosenior. “In terms of the decision, it’s not all about me, or the sporting directors, the ownership, the players, we are aligned in our decision. You have to protect the culture, and in terms of that, a line was crossed.”

Sir, – Prof Ray Murphy makes an interesting legal case for using the UN General Assembly to overcome Security Council paralysis (“Don’t ditch the triple lock. There is a better way to circumvent the Security Council veto”, Opinion, April 1st). The question is not whether Ireland can find an alternative UN route around the veto of permanent Security Council members. Meanwhile, we benefit from the wider security architecture of these islands while contributing comparatively little. If Ireland is serious about both, it must be willing to take responsibility for its own defence and for its own decisions.

All good things come to an end, however, and if you’re coming to the end of a fix, it’s time to act again. Right now, the lowest mortgage rates begin with “3”. Borrowers coming off a fixed-rate will automatically roll on to their bank’s variable rate which is always much higher. This will show you how much you could expect to save by opting for their various fixed or variable rates. If you haven’t yet got your deeds and drawn down the mortgage, rates could go up and you could end up on a higher rate, he says.

People are being asked to take part in the testing of Ireland’s proposed digital wallet app. The Government is legally obliged, under EU regulations, to ensure there is a digital wallet for accessing public services by the end of the year, and for private services by the end of 2027. “Big life events, such as having a baby, moving home, or starting a new job often require dealing with several different public service providers. “The digital wallet aims to reduce that administrative burden, making it easier, faster and more secure to access the supports people need. “This testing and consultation phase is an important step in building a digital wallet that genuinely works for people.

While motorists have been hit by the current conflict, the oil price shocks of the 1970s led to a more precipitous rise in prices at the pump. The 1970s oil price shocks toppled governments, led to recessions and precipitated dramatic shifts in monetary policy (interest rates were hiked to more than 16 per cent in the United States). Ironically, the second oil price shock of 1979 triggered the Iranian revolution. And wholesale gas prices, the main driver of domestic electricity costs here, haven’t risen as much as they did in 2022. For Iran, oil trading at anything above $100 a barrel gives it leverage.
