Mr Doyle says he did not share the video to social media, but sent it to a number of his friends in a WhatsApp message. The next day however, the operator of Dublin Airport, DAA, which was a notice party in the case, informed him his airport identification card had been suspended. The Garda Commissioner is ultimately responsible for undertaking security checks of Dublin Airport employees and had refused to renew his card. However, he said the decision to deny Mr Doyle security clearance because of an unacceptable security threat to the State has not been set aside. “That appeal may or may not uphold the decision to remove Mr Doyle’s security clearance”, he said.

From minute four to the final whistle, this went exactly how Arne Slot would have dreamt it when his head hit the pillow the previous night. Liverpool secured their safe passage to the last-16 of the Champions League without breaking a sweat, thrashing Qarabag 6-0. It ended up a tough night for the Azerbaijanis as the Premier League champions ran riot with Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz and Co also scoring and finding much-needed confidence. ‘It's only two years ago that we were playing Europa League and we went out in the quarter-finals against Atalanta,’ said Slot. We will definitely be hungry for more this season as well.’Slot had opined this week that being knocked out of the Champions League last March to Paris Saint-Germain aided his team’s Premier League title tilt.

Man Utd stars left dumbstruck by Michael Carrick as new rule introducedMichael Carrick has made a positive start to life as Manchester United interim manager and the former midfielder also impressed his players on the training pitchView 2 Images Manchester United interim manager Michael Carrick has had a positive start at Old TraffordMichael Carrick left his Manchester United players amazed with a remarkable show of technique during training. His squad have been working hard during training sessions in preparation for the clash, with the 44-year-old also participating in some drills. When I was working with Steve at England, he was really hands-on in terms of taking most of the training sessions. This follows Carrick implementing a 'new rule' at United, putting increased focus on tailored work with particular players during training sessions. Training sessions are now understood to be briefer yet more demanding, with the squad reportedly reacting well to Carrick's fresh methods.

Export taxesIf, however, the EU eschewed import tariffs in favour of export taxes, the US may take a bigger hit. A good example is pharmaceutical products, where the EU runs a large trade surplus with the US. But the transatlantic services trade is almost as large as trade in goods — both a bit above $800 billion annually. European investors hold about $6 trillion of this debt — about $3 trillion in US Treasuries and another $3 trillion in Treasury-backed US housing-agency debt. But the notion that European investors could dump their US Treasury holdings, thereby bringing down the market and driving up interest rates, is unrealistic.

Trent Alexander-Arnold sent brutal verdict after Liverpool return message - 'Truth be known'Trent Alexander-Arnold has endured a difficult start to life at Real Madrid and the former Liverpool star's chances of making England's World Cup squad now appear to be fadingView 2 Images Trent Alexander-Arnold has been sent another brutal message (Image: (Photo by Angel Martinez/Getty Images))Trent Alexander-Arnold has received a harsh World Cup verdict from former England international Stuart Pearce. The ex-Liverpool full-back has suffered a torrid opening few months at Real Madrid, with fitness problems limiting him to just 11 outings. Those physical setbacks and the displays of teammates have resulted in Alexander-Arnold being omitted from all three England squads this season. He told Betway: "No I don't [see him making it into to the squad], if truth be known. "I will always love the club, I will always love the people of the club, I will always love the fans and the supporters.

The five minutes of added time had already spilled over but the Estadio da Luz was in no hurry to empty. Trublin's goal knocked Madrid into the playoff spots, too, meaning Mourinho may once again face his old side come February. The game may have gone down in the history books even before Trubin's goal, such was the drama. But that would be the only time this Madrid team would lead the game, with Andreas Schjelderup's two goals and a penalty from Vangelis Pavlidis sending Benfica into a commanding lead. Mbappe responded with another, but with Mourinho's side needing that one goal, against his old team, there was always only going to be one outcome.

Photograph: Colin Keegan/CollinsA ban on the use of scramblers in public places is being planned by the Government as well as stricter regulations for e-scooters and e-bikes. In the wake of her death, Taoiseach Micheál Martin signalled the Government would seek to remove scrambler bikes from the roads. Sources briefed on proceedings said afterwards that an outright ban is being planned on scramblers in public places such as parks and roads. Dublin Senator Mary Fitzpatrick, who proposed the motion, argued strongly for a complete ban on scramblers from Irish roads. Party leader and Tánaiste Simon Harris outlined a number of actions being considered including the banning of scramblers in public places, as well as the immediate confiscation of scramblers, (which will not be returned to their owners).

“The IRFU does not tolerate any form of disrespect shown towards match officials and does not condone actions that fall below the standards expected of players representing Irish rugby. The suspension handed out by the disciplinary panel need not necessarily signal the end of Aki’s international career. Should Irish players have been wrapped in cotton wool ahead of the Six Nations? Bundee Aki, bloodied and bruised, during Ireland's Six Nations match against Wales in Cardiff last year. His name invariably induces the loudest cheer for Irish players before games, whether abroad or at home – certainly since Peter O’Mahony retired.

Kim Kardashian has finally addressed the mystery behind why photos of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle vanished from her Instagram following mom Kris Jenner's milestone 70th birthday celebration. 'Mom and Meghan have been friends for some years now, and they have a really sweet relationship.' Prince Harry was notably seen wearing a poppy badge - an emblem of Remembrance Day - on his way into Jenner's party at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's mansion. Another picture was taken from behind Jenner as Meghan placed her hand on her shoulder, while Harry made a silly face toward her. And just like that, Swift was off the table, as Khloe quickly pivoted: 'So… do you like country music?'
