But at the same time, the self-proffessed professional mediator, was being investigated for killing of mobster Robbie Lawlor.

    Oil Crisis: Trump v the Pope, a new blockade and the fallout of Irish protests
    Apr 13 2026

    Another week begins, and with it another breakdown in talks as the Iran War rolls on. The US is enacting a fresh blockade of Iranian ports, while Donald Trump has hit out at a fresh opponent – Pope Leo XIV. Meanwhile, back on Irish soil, the fallout from last week’s fuel protests continues apace. Is the Government’s €505m fuel package enough to calm things down? And just how big a scar will the shutdown leave?
