The 5 at 5 Five minutes, five stories, five o’clock…

EVERY WEEKDAY EVENING, TheJournal.ie brings you the five biggest stories of the day.

1. #GREEN LIST: Tánaiste Leo Varadkar has raised questions about the publication of the ‘green list’ of countries where people can travel without having to self-quarantine upon returning to Ireland.

2. #NURSING HOMES: Half of the nursing homes inspected by HIQA following Covid-19 outbreaks were not compliant with infection prevention and control regulations.

3. #BIG JACK: The funeral service of former Ireland football manager Jack Charlton heard that he was a “proud Englishman, a proud northerner and a proud honorary Irishman”.

4. #BURN OUT: A nurse who was hospitalised with Covid-19 has criticised low staffing levels in the health service and says she was “extremely burned out”.

5. #RUSSIA REPORT: A long-awaited report into Russian interference in the UK has found that it would be “difficult – if not impossible” to assess whether Russia successfully influenced voters in the 2016 Brexit referendum.
