Great to see & if we build more segregated cycleways & speed reductions there will be even more people cycling. I see this on my daily cycle route especially when you get to Newcomen bridge the cross road of bicycles from C2CC & Royal Canal. Build it & they come!

A non answer Rob, very odd so we are still awaiting an explanation.
By election candidates and the left are releasing this joint statement of solidarity with Cllr Helen Ogbu following disgraceful online abuse.
Roderic O’Gorman Green Party Convention
Hazel Chu Green Party Convention
“This Government is failing on climate, on housing, and on caring for our most vulnerable.
We are the Party with the track record of solutions.
We are the Party with a positive alternative for the voters of Galway West and Dublin Central
Let’s make Hope happen“

Mná Glasa at our 2026 Green Party Convention. Proud to stand with so many strong women. #Greens2026 #Kilkenny #Ireland #Politics @greenparty.ie
Arrived in Kilkenny @greenparty.ie annual convention, delegates gathering here from the four corners of Ireland. The mood is hopeful and celebratatory after Hannah Spencer by-election win! 💚
Spoke about this and have long been advocating for more nighttime street markets.
@greenparty.ie Councillor Donna Cooney highlighted night markets as a prime example of something that could breathe new life into the city after dark.
The roll-out of the city's new clothes recycling banks should start at last in April, a council official said recently. Complaints about waste clothes strewn around clothes banks spiked early last year – as did questions around where the deposited clothes actually end up.
Dublin City Council Council is resurrecting its right to demand cultural spaces in big developments. In July, the Department of Housing published new guidelines that appeared to have axed this council policy – but it apparently has risen from the dead.
Hope wins!!!!
320,000 customers weren't able to pay their energy bills last year
When asked why households pay more for energy than data centres, Minister Chambers said our view wasn't supportive of economic growth.
When will Government put the needs of Irish citizens over the interests of big businesses?
Very odd 🤔
A start of a new positive future of hope and not hate. Congratulations to Hannah and all the thousands of people that got out to get her elected. @greenparty.ie @greenpartyni.org
Myself & Councillor @janetphorner.bsky.social motion requesting DCC purchasing Clonturk House for arts/cultural/community use. Unfortunately DCC replied to say they didn't have the capacity but they agreed to look at future possibilities @dublininquirer.com

As least we will find out the reason on Monday Rob, with a written response.
Contract for new clothes-bank operator in the city should be finalised within 2 weeks according to a council official Sid Ó Dálaigh, “after which a mobilisation period will begin”
@greenparty.ie Councillor Donna Cooney had asked for an update on the roll-out of a new set-up for recycling textiles.
Good evening celebrating the artists that recieved bursaries & groups for arts projects
Over €800,000 granted this year from @dubcitycouncil.bsky.social Arts office. Very competitive with so many applications we need to increase budget even more next year Looking forward to seeing new work 2026-27
I have no idea Rob, but we should get written answer next Monday.
Girl (16) killed while walking dog in Navan hit-and-run named, as road death toll surges over weekend Grim day leads to growing concern, with road deaths surpassing last year Four road deaths in three separate accidents in three counties over the weekend
The online portal to submit dashcam footage of dangerous driving is delayed again.
The gov cancelled the camera enforcement pilot last year. The draft strategy to roll out camera enforcement around the country has been sitting on Minister @darraghobrientd.bsky.social's desk since May 2025.
Premier Film Displace The Battle For Dublin @scampmedia.bsky.social as part of DIFF It was a few years ago that James Redmond approached me about this film. Really excited to see it & meet all the other contributors, never been on a Red carpet before, so a bit nervous. @lighthousecinema.bsky.social
Hannah and Zack having a selfie
Final weekend. One last push.
This is about whether you want local plumber Hannah Spencer or the extreme Reform candidate.
It's hope vs hate.
It's Greens vs Reform.
Hope can win.
