Drove through an isolated, desolate and barren chunk of the country the last few days. Everything for miles is grass, bracken or muck. What do the locals want? NO. No to neighbours, no to solar panels, no to wind turbines. SAVE OUR COUNTRYSIDE they unironically plaster on signs. For fuck sake.

Hello it's me the leader of the party full of landlords that has been in power your whole adult life and created the housing crisis we now refuse to resolve.
I'm here to tell you it's actually the foreigners' fault.

And yet he wants to skip environmental protections
The Taoiseach has told other world leaders about how Ireland was struck by Storm Éowyn earlier this year, saying that climate change is no longer a far-off threat but a "daily reality".

Looks like making environmental protections *even worse* to appease private profiteers would be just as reckless as it sounds.
The European Court of Justice ruled the concentration of the chemical compound trihalomethanes (THMs) in drinking had persistently exceeded recommended safety limits since at least 2012 while the deadline for compliance had been 2003.

I'm old enough to remember when criticising the EU was framed as unacceptable
Or is it only good to blame the EU when you're scapegoating your own failures

Every far-right riot and protest that was tolerated, every racist dog whistle from public reps, every bit of hate and misinformation allowed to spread by social media companies, all led to this moment in Drogheda last night where someone felt emboldened enough to try to burn children alive.

This is where validating “legitimate concerns” and “just asking questions” gets us. It’s where remarks by senior politicians gets us. It’s where unchecked fascist rhetoric gets us.

Bad enough the Gardaí gave free run to the far right for years.
Bad enough arson against immigrant centres became standard practice for racists.
Bad enough we've already had race riots.
The Taoiseach & Táinaiste poured petrol on all the above during the week, & we shouldn't be shy in saying it.

Again here evading the opportunity to call out the hate driving the behaviour. It wasn’t a random attack.
I condemn in the strongest terms the deeply disturbing incident at the IPAS centre in Drogheda. To put vulnerable families, including young children, at risk is abhorrent and has no place in our society.
Our thoughts are with those affected by this horrifying experience.
