As leaders assemble for the #COP30 climate talks in #belem, we need to remind our own government that #ClimateActionNow is absolutely essential. We must fight for a #JustTransition to a stable climate 🌍

We'll see you there!
We'll be joining the National #Climate Demonstration on the 15th and want to see you there too.

We need to send the message to the government and EU that #ClimateAction is needed now more than ever

The online Traffic Watch form is completely unfit for purpose in this day and age. The online video portal is needed urgently. There’s a mountain of footage of dangerous drivers from dashcams and bike cameras that would help to get them off the road - @feljin.ie

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.

Portal for uploading video evidence of road traffic crime to be progressed in 2026 — Minister
Gardaí are still developing an online portal to "facilitate the uploading and submission of video footage to An Garda Síochána by the public" the Minister for Justice has confirmed. In a parliamentary question, Roderic O'Gorman, Green Party leader and a TD for Dublin West, asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality, "when the online portal to submit video evidence of road traffic offences will become operational."

In summary: it's great!

Dublin City Council has approved funding for the redevelopment of Dalymount Park. Planning permission was approved last year. A contractor will be appointed next year and construction will begin at the end of the League of Ireland season in late 2026.

BREAKING: Green Party councillors have walked out of Belfast City Council’s meeting after the Lord Mayor blocked a member from speaking on the Gaza genocide and refused a recess to resolve it. This is a clear overreach of the Mayor’s duty to act impartially.

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...

The Green Party has accused the Government of “ignoring far-right violence and threats” following a suspected arson attack at an international protection building housing families in Drogheda.

Gardaí now believe petrol was used to start the fire at the building.

The attack in Drogheda is shocking, but not surprising. This government ignoring right wing violence has led us here, and without meaningful response will only lead to deaths
November 2, 2025 at 12:24 PM
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.

Last week, new and complex guidelines for urban speed limits by local authorities were published by the Minister for Transport.

These are a U-turn on a 30km/h default legislated for by the Green Party in government.

The result will probably be the same — but add work and delay until March 2027.

A 30km/h default urban speed limit will save lives.

Dilution and delays will cost lives.
Opinion: We could make our towns safer for everyone by lowering speed limits to 30km/h
The government is dragging its feet on reducing the default speed limit in urban areas to 30 km/h, writes Councillor Feljin Jose.

As road fatalities and collisions rise year-on-year, we see plans to lower speed limits abandoned by the Minister of Transport in a pass the buck exercise.

9/10 survive if hit at 30km/h.

3/10 will be killed if struck at 50km/h.

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.
