The distance between #Dublin and #London is only 464 km (288 miles), #asthecrowflies. The two capital cities are in a Common Travel Area.

But as #GretaThunberg learnt today, it's about a million miles in politics.

In Dublin, #PresidentConnolly regards the #genocide in #Gaza as a horror. But in London, the #CityOfLondonPolice treat opposition to genocide as #Terrorism. So #Greta went from a presidential welcome in #Ireland to arrest in #England / #UK.
