An Israeli fund backs one of Ireland’s biggest landlords, but who else? As the government courts more international money for Ireland’s rental sector, tenants say they want more transparency around who they are renting from.
Ireland will remember what International Law is on or after 18th March.
I visited Carrifran Wildwood myself last summer, and the scale of what has been achieved there truly has to be seen to be believed.
At least 400,000 acres is now being rewilded in Scotland: an incredible 2.1% of the whole country, and rapidly increasing all the time.
Come ON, Ireland!!
Am I right in thinking that we've thrown Spain under the bus? Their bravery was a chance for more countries to stand up.
Clashes between Bahrain’s dictatorship and protesters. Angry crowds are calling for the removal of US bases and troops from the country.

Truly, truly, truly disgusting.
Keep this Trumpist race baiting out of British politics.
Attended the premiere of ‘An Irish Atlantic Rainforest’ yesterday, a terrific documentary based on @irishrainforest.bsky.social book of the same name.
It’s visually stunning & gives a tantalising glimpse into just how beautiful Ireland is, what we’ve lost & how it could be again via rewilding.
Spain’s Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez on Iran:
“Remember that one can be against a hateful regime, as is the case with the Iranian regime, as is the whole of Spanish society, and at the same time be against an unjustified, dangerous military intervention outside of international law.”
Meanwhile, fresh from being trounced in a by-election for one of Labour’s safest seats, Starmer doubles down on his disastrous pro-fascist policies.
Labour’s vote will be in single digits by the time this empty suit is finished.
So, the president of European Commission, supposedly speaking on behalf of EU, hasn’t a single word of criticism for illegal US/Israeli attack on Iran, instead blaming Iran for trying to defend itself.
The same VDL cowardice we saw in #Gaza.
Small wonder the US treats Europe like a bad joke.
Kind of incredible. I was just sitting down to write about how Starmer should be given credit for keeping us out of this mess when he does this. Unutterably foolish and obsequious. Why in God's name should we have anything to do with this shortsighted madness.
Let’s just see how the BBC is framing this war of aggression, shall we?
“If you criticize Netanyahu's policies, you are then described as being anti-Semitic. That is a disgrace and a slander...”
— Michael D. Higgins former Irish President Ireland 🇮🇪
Astonishing result. Devastating outcome for Labour AND for Reform but an absolute breakthrough for the Greens, proving public hunger for decency, integrity and basic humanity in politics.
Good morning.
If you've just woken up, the politics of hope just crushed the politics of fear and hatred (Labour-Reform).
It wasn't even close.
40.6% for the Greens. Reform second on 28.7%, Labour third on 25.4%.
Imagine playing sports with any other country engaged in mass ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and genocide?
It stopped with apartheid South Africa, which wasn't even as bad.
*Full* boycott of Israel NOW: sports, cultural, academic, trade, and investment links.

No football for war criminals.
Ireland says no to Israeli football whitewashing in Dublin.

Christ almighty I'm cringing just from the second hand embarrassment for these eejits. We need to ban Facebook entirely till grown adults stop being so gullible
High Court costs are insanely high. Like, mind boggling high.
The fact that this eejit can afford to keep this ridiculous circus on the road is wild, and clear evidence that the Burkes are being funded from elsewhere
The next time you hear some politician blaming pearl mussels or the Habitats Directive for flooding disasters, might be a good time to point this out to to them.
I support this poster's question 100% and am, at the same time, disturbed it needs to be asked.
Everyone kept dying, all the time, of everything at an astonishing rate.
Surgery? Probably gonna die. Chest infection? May not make it to the weekend. TB? Off with you now to write some wistful poems
The *real* global conspiracy, in a nutshell.

I had no idea that the wildly profitable Ryder Cup at the gazillion star posh hotel was a struggling charity event needing volunteers
The world must be a very terrifying place for people who are so stupid they think "15 minute cities" are a bad idea or some kind of woke communist plot
See also commercial forestry on hills, bogs cut for turf, fields drained by ditches, turloughs drained, ponds infilled, swamps and wetlands infilled to produce farmland or housing, astroturf on sports fields and private gardens, concrete and tarmac, pushed over front gardens, back gardens etc.
Harvesting 40,000 metric tonnes of intertidal seaweed per annum is an industrial scale operation.
The length of coastline involved is massive, but it's likely that the biomass is not evenly distributed, so harvesting may be concentrated in particular localities.
The impacts could be significant.
Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.
