The new plans for College Green look great. It'll take political and public pressure to get it done - the Greens will be backing it all the way. We can build a better Dublin: we just need to keep pushing for it!

Yesterday we members of the Advisory of the National Action Plan Against Racism held a discussion with civil society on racism & met with the EU Commission Lead on Anti Racism Michaela Moua. The Government is failing in our fight against racism and needs to prioritise the implementation of the plan!

Today marks 1000 days since the railway order application for MetroLink was submitted to An Bord Pleanála. We marked the occasion by cutting a special MetroLink-themed cake outside ABP's offices to highlight the long delays for critical infrastructure in our planning system.

It's obviously not just a 'legal hurdle' that can be overcome with another cut at planning. Clearly there's a substantive problem with the project but neither the politicians nor those interviewing them want to engage with that. www.donegaldaily.com/2025/06/24/d...

On LBC @zoejardiniere.bsky.social lists 3 previous instances where military aircraft have been targeted by campaigners in order to prevent them being used in war crimes, and she describes the govt banning Palestine Action as terrorists as an abuse of state power. Well said.

Spot on letter by @wildmed.bsky.social! Galway’s councillors continue to hold its people hostage with their outdated approach to transport — a second ring road. The problem in Galway is not too few roads, but too many cars and too few viable alternatives.

Far right agitators are trying to use refugees and anyone who isn’t white as a scapegoat for the problems this country faces.

When you actually read this piece, the reason given is because the Greens wanted more funding for public transport and "hot air" about renewables. We do, yeah. We're playing catch-up after decades of no investment in public transport, clean energy and energy security and we have a long way to go.
