Not on the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) website. Not somewhere on Fedi that DFA controls. No. Corporate social media channels, most of which require a logged-in account to view posts.
Fucking hell.

@clickhere Easier to blame the intern if it's on social media than if they put the wrong info on their website then it looks official official

@nantes That would be a very civil service thing to think; but I'd be surprised if they even gave it that much thought, rather than this being purely a reflexive move.

@clickhere It always should be that governments big and small publish news on accessible publicly owned and run servers, but so many got sucked in by Facebook as a "cost savings".

Japan has NHK re-open shortwave transmitters.Ireland, despite dispora, only did a brief experimental SW in 1948.
Closed AM (MW & LW) that reached UK and LW maybe further.Irish Gov shouldn't use any social media.
When family & I were marooned abroad some years ago we had to get British help.
Meanwhile they go on a jolly every year on St. Patrick's day to USA, don't properly regulate USA companies etc.
