We have the same problem. Of those that retained them UK councils can barely afford the upkeep of the stock they have just now. Once you run down the state’s capacity to build houses it’s incredibly difficult to rebuild that capacity, especially in the face of a crisis as steep as Ireland’s.

And you think that’s news? 🤣

It’s an often remarked upon thing but searches for “What is the EU” and “What is Brexit” spiked in the UK after the vote. A failure of the media to explain, yes, but also an indication of how risky referendums are. Huge numbers didn’t know what they were voting for.

My @interraileu.bsky.social experience of Italy was in July 1980 and I only rode the system again in 2018 on a long family trip from Stroud via stopovers in Cologne, Munich, Pisa, Rome and finally Naples. The transformation is gobsmacking. In ‘80 Rome to Naples took three hours, in ‘18 just one.
