Important that amid everything else that's going on in the world right now (and there really is so much, isn't there?), €8 million has been put aside in #Budget2021 to ensure that the new Stardust inquests go ahead jrnl.ie/5231704

May she rest in peace after all that she had been through. Her love for her daughters was so powerful and she never, ever stopped fighting for them. Thinking of Antoinette and all of Mrs Keegan’s family tonight #JFT48 ✊🏼💔

Good to hear @StardustPod get a recommendation on @lstwrd just now. One of the best podcasts I’ve ever listened to. Well worth binging on in this difficult time.

I was talking with The Journal about early 80's and the Stardust. With having lived not too far away relating that time brought it all back... and I had no family or friend loss. Delighted the story was told and of the recognition of it's telling. Well done @thejournal_ie
In the past week, Stardust has been nominated for an award at the New York Festival Radio Awards and the Celtic Media Festival. jrnl.ie/5052857t
