Storm Chandra should remind us that the impacts of climate change will be for more costly than delivering climate action.

I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

I'm part of the National Action Plan Against Racism Advisory and today with the Special Rapporteur Dr Ebun Joseph we launched our Year 1 monitoring report at the Gresham Hotel today.
We found progress but major gaps in implementation and accountability.

The erosion of dance spaces and clubs in our city started before Hoxton.
Saying that what Hoxton is doing is absurd.
Dance Culture IS Culture! We have been fighting for more dance spaces alongside Give Us The Night, No More Hotels & others. We need more spaces, not less!

Thanks to my fellow councillors for agreeing unanimously that @fingal.ie should stop using X, especially mayor Tom O’Leary for taking the suspension of standing orders and John Smith for suggesting that approach.
Fingal County Council has decided to stop using X for its communications, except for emergency communications, @michaellanigan.bsky.social points out to me, after watching the meeting.

Hi, I’m Janet and I’m running to be your next TD for Dublin Central. Part of that means introducing myself on as many doors as possible, but it’s not something I usually do online, so bear with me while I get used to this!

We welcome the Tánaiste’s reassurance that new laws will not make cycling without a helmet a crime.
While using helmets is important for cyclists, this law would have criminalised cyclists rather than users of high speed motorised bikes, scramblers and scooters, and dangerous drivers.

In case anyone you know have homes flooded and need payment support. Also there's a small businesses flooding payment scheme. I've compiled the number to one image and added out of hours number for DCC, Uisce and ESB in case anyone needs it tonight!

Today is World Cancer Day!
7 months ago I got diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. 2 weeks ago I finished 4.5 weeks of daily radiotherapy.
If I hadn't checked and found a lump it would have gone undetected. It is SO important to check yourself!! Please check yourself!

So Irish Rail now has to issue 750 compulsory purchase orders to keep the DART+ South West project alive despite no funding commitment from the government. What a mess and it's entirely of this government's making.

Sitting across the Oireachtas Children's Committee on online safety for children.
Very much getting the impression that a lot of politicians are reaching for the Under-16 ban. Momentum behind that rather than a deeper understanding of platforms, algorithms and any alternative view.

It's not acceptable that the only way to get live updates on public transport is by having an account on X which is now under investigation for CSAM. TFI and Irish Rail need to start providing accessible and reliable updates on their own platforms instead of relying on X. #SpeirGorm

Calling all fellow Greens! I am asking for your vote in the Deputy Leader Election. Voting is open from 12pm Monday (26th).
Together we can build for a more sustainable, climate resilient Ireland. One that prioritises climate action, nature restoration, providing homes and fighting discrimination.
