Delighted to have got a chance to meet the West on Track and GLUAS campaigns this evening.

We're all working to transform how we get around Galway, Connacht and the whole island.

Some nice light reading for us on the bus home! 😄

GALWAY TO MAYO RAIL LINK FUNDED

Some good news for Galway's railway. The Minister of State for Transport Seán Canney announced that funding for the reopenning of the Athenry <-> Claremorris railway will be included in the National Development Plan.

Dublin is in the process of leapfrogging Copenhagen in terms of removing the dominance of traffic in its city centre, while the Danish capital is sitting on its arse obsessing over the idea of new motorway tunnels to remove traffic.

Dublin already has nothing comparable to H. C. Andersens Blvd...

Good news today that Luas Finglas has been approved by An Coimisiún Pleanála. That's now five big rail projects approved in the last year and no clarity over funding and timelines.

The National Development Plan published in July contained no details.

"That's not possible, you can't do that. The trains have to run." Hauntingly similar conditions in Germany to those in Britain prior to the Hatfield rail disaster.

Dear friends in the EU: this is not inevitable, just as liberalisation is not a precursor to better railways.

Now that the 8100 DARTs are being repainted you can see where the all the components are. They’re really nicely labelled.

Am I the only one who cares about this? Probably…

Ireland's Taoiseach (prime minister), has just shockingly said: “I don’t think we can mitigate for climate change" but it somehow didn't even make the headline: www.independent.ie/business/tec... @michaelemann.bsky.social
Taoiseach says some climate projects will not be fulfilled because they risk polarising society
Taoiseach Micheál Martin has rowed back on climate change commitments, saying Ireland may not be able fulfil all current initiatives due to the polarising effect it could have on society.

As of 10am, wind has made up 70% of indigenous generation and renewable generation in total (biomass, hydro, wind, solar) has equalled 85.5% of the island's electricity demand. There's some exporting, gas generation's at a minimum. Looks set to last for the day.

A big blanket VAT cut? It's a bad idea. Better to give smarter, more targetted supports for cafes and restaurants.

We've set out a way to give more to small businesses while spending about a third of what the government are planning.

Be smart: do more, spend less!

Yesss!! MetroLink has been approved by An Coimisiún Pleanála after three years in the planning process. 🥳 Still awaiting details and if any modifications were made. More later today.

Renewable generation (that's biomass, hydro, wind, and solar) never dipped below 50% of electricity demand yesterday. Overnight, it exceeded 100% for a little while around 1am.

This is still rare outside of the winter: we saw it in Aug/Sep 2023, only in winter in 2024, and now in Aug/Sep 2025.

to everyone who criticises the interconnectors as ways to become reliant on electricity from other countries

they also allow wind energy on windy days to be exported, making money instead
Renewable generation and pumped storage equalled 69% of yesterday's electricity demand, with a peak of 83% at 19:00. Fossil fuel generation (mostly gas) equalled 30% of demand. 4% of generation was exported, 4% of demand was met by imports.

I delivered the 700 page business case and cost benefit analysis for MetroLink to Michael O'Leary's office yesterday.

O'Leary said on RTÉ Radio that there’s been no cost-benefit analysis done on Metrolink which was then repeated on multiple news outlets.
