Totally normal levels of ambition on public transport with thousands locked in to car dependency and record traffic on the M50.
Sick and tired of this Government’s backtracking? 👇

They've done it again, they've cut more rail projects. The most criminal one for me is cancelling the reopening of the Waterford-Wexford/Rosslare line. On the left is the All-island Rail Review published by the last government and on the right is the plan published today.

We've transformed our city in many ways in the last five years. This street used to be full of cars. Now there's music, laughter, food, people sitting down. Life slows down a little bit on Parliament Street.

Congratulations to Catherine Connolly who has been elected the 10th President of Ireland. We were delighted to support this campaign over the last month and her landslide win is proof of the value of a positive, united campaign.

I've been looking at the issue of goats in Ireland, including 'Old Irish' goats and their role in fire management. As part of this I visited Howth Head in Dublin where Fingal County Council has been using the animals now for a number of years 🐐

Old Irish goats should be carefully managed to avoid over-grazing
Without a culling programme, it is only a matter of time before the population gets out of hand

If Jim Gavin gets 12.5% or more, Fianna Fáil gets €250,000 in expenses refunded. Bear that in mind if you're voting for Jim Gavin as a joke.

The Green Party are supporting Catherine Connolly *because* we care about nature, and because we have always said that climate justice and social justice are inseparable.

The Taoiseach creates a false choice here. Climate Action is about making life better, making energy cheaper, making our atmosphere cleaner.
But that requires leadership. We see none from this Government.

I joined the #Love30 campaign protest yesterday. Earlier we heard many excuses from the Minister's adviser as to why he couldn't introduce default speed limits.
Every day delayed will only bring more heartbreak to families. Numbers of deaths of vulnerable road users are far too high.

The science is clear: a default 30km/h speed limit in all urban areas will save lives!
Any further delay in implementing this long overdue change is unforgivable.

Campaigners heap pressure on government to rollout 30km speed limit
The Love30 campaign is stepping up the pressure - calling on the government to stop delaying and deliver a default 30km speed limit in towns and cities.

Great work by our Dublin West TD and Green Party leader! #droneaction
Drones have a value in our society, but they are a really new technology and there has to be rules about how they work.
That's why I have drafted a law to regulate delivery drones, addressing the issues raised in Dublin 15 and that the Govt have so far ignored.

Great news from Moldova yesterday, now it’s Europe’ turn for more integration and commitment for next steps - and money !
An incredibly important election in a tiny country just went the right way. Moldova has resisted a huge Russian disinformation campaign and will not become a Russian puppet state.
