PRESIDENT MICHAEL D Higgins signed a book of condolence at the French embassy this morning, where a minute’s silence was observed at 11am to mark the victims of Friday’s attacks in Paris.
The President was joined by representatives of the Irish Muslim community including the Imam of the Al-Mustafa Mosque in Blanchardstown, Shaykh Dr Umar Al-Qadi.
President Higgins and the French ambassador, Jean-Pierre Thebault, led the minute’s silence outside the embassy.

@Ron North: Imagine though that that was your biggest problem in life….trying to get a jar of chocolate spread for €3 cheaper…they mustn’t have too much to worry about
It’s the last stock of the original recipe…your welcome
Depressing.
@Bewarethebeardz: nuts
So if I put my unopened jar on Ebay how much might I make?
@Gillian Scully: €1.41 less Postage
@Gillian Scully: Probably not much. The reason they went mad was because they could buy in bulk at a discounted rate and get a number of jars for the price they’d usually pay for 1. Can’t imagine one jar would garner much interest.
@Gillian Scully: Be like everyone else and charge 20 for postage.
@Gillian Scully:
I think it is a loss you would be making
If they could sell it at reduced price, and still make a profit, why are they selling it at the original price? Sales frenzy and prices just baffles me. I like them though but I always feel cheated at the same time.
@The Girl: so they can do something like this and have big profit surges
I hope this doesn’t ‘spread’
@P-double-U: you ruined it with ‘ ‘
Another day, another fight for survival for Europe’s poor.
@Niccolo Saccho: Don’t take it to seriously, have a Snickers or a Kit Kat
@Emilio Butler: FrankDapavia or Julie Burn could fetch one for him…
” Let Them Eat Cake”
What a time to be alive
Smear campaign.
It’s all down to them not having a minister for Nutella.
They are probably clearing the stock of the Original – Real Nutella – before bringing in the new recipe one with the cheaper ingredients.
Maybe the real reason?
ps. Debenhams Blanch was selling it for €3 when their custom label printer ran out of paper – but there was loads of them on the shelf with few takers.
Is no one interested in washing clothes economically any more?
Going nutella over discounted Nutella. People are pathetic
Moochers
French cuisine?
Nuts
This isn’t funny it’s pathetic and depressing
Let them eat nutella.
Wonder if the squirrels were there
have your say
