SOME older readers will recall The Irish Weekly—sister paper of The Irish News—being sold in churches throughout Scotland. It was a Nationalist and Catholic publication, which, in 1892 incorporated The Ulster Examiner. The content was of Irish interest whether in news, prose, history or verse.

AS 2025 came to a close, a fascinating presentation was delivered by Jimmy Watson, Chair of the Friends of Thomas Muir, in Grace’s Irish Centre in Glasgow.

THE famous Red Clydesider, John Maclean, and his involvement in Ireland’s long struggle for national independence, were celebrated in a talk delivered recently in Grace’s Irish Centre hosted by the 1916 Rising Centenary Committee.
