Chris Eubank gives 'uplifting' talk to staff at Galway hotel during race week
Boxing icon Chris Eubank gave staff at the Connacht Hotel an impromptu spiritual talk during Galway Race week. As staff were preparing to welcome thousands of horse racing fans to the popular hotel during race week, Eubank was also staying at the hotel. The world famous sports star gave an impromptu 'uplifting' talk to staff on Friday afternoon. Kieran O'Malley, PR and social media marketing for the Connacht Hotel, said: 'I thought I was going to take a quick photo with Chris Eubank and some staff. 'It turned into a 45 minute lecture on philosophy and spirituality. 'Race Week is our busiest week, but this was the antidote to this, Chris was calm and pensive, he had the entire room hanging on his every word, humours and uplifting it was a Friday afternoon none of our staff will forget.' It comes after Eubank also posed for a photo as the Connacht airport shared the snap across their social media channels along with the caption: "You never know who you'll bump into at Ireland West Airport. "Delighted to have Chris Eubank arrive at the airport earlier today." Eubank has previously praised the 'spirit' of the Irish people and the admiration he has for the nation. "An Irishman has a spirit that cannot be broken. I mean the Maoris, we can liken them to the Maroons, the Jamaicans. They are special people. "I'm not bumping them up, I'm not Irish. I'm just saying my observations of the spirit of these people. They are amazing." Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest news from the Irish Mirror direct to your inbox: Sign up here.

US plans $15k bond requirement for some tourist and business visas
The US could require up to $15,000 (€12,900) bonds for some tourist and business visas under a new pilot programme launching in two weeks, a US government notice said on Monday, an effort that aims to crack down on visitors who overstay their visas. The programme gives US consular officers the discretion to impose bonds on visitors from countries with high rates of visa overstays, according to a Federal Register notice. The bonds also could be applied to people coming from countries where screening and vetting information is deemed insufficient, the notice said. US president Donald Trump has made cracking down on illegal immigration a central focus of his presidency, surging resources to secure the border and arresting people in the US illegally. The Republican president issued a travel ban in June that blocks citizens of 12 nations from entering the US on national security grounds. The new visa programme, effective August 20, will last for approximately a year, the government notice said. The US government launched a similar pilot programme in November 2020 during the last months of Trump's first term in office, but it was not fully implemented due to the drop in global travel associated with the pandemic, the notice said.
