Who is responsible for the #HousingCrisis? Ukrainian refugees? No Asylum-seekers? No Economic immigrants? No Indigenous Irish people? No Developers? No, not even them. So who? The Government, politicians, councillors, civil servants, policy makers, planners, landlords, bankers.

Woohoo! Nothing keeps you all down 💪 keep on cooking that yummy yummy goodness

Fair play to Letterkenny Tidy Towns, what a fantastic example! 🙏 more of this is needed, people want it, government just needs to enable and support it End #DerelictIreland

Having learned from previous #RainBoxBETA trials, we wish to explore how we might rollout Rain Box Planters across the city. We are looking for residents, in houses on public streets, within DCC's area, to fill in this survey! surveymonkey.com/r/RainBoxPlant… Retweets would be brill! 🙏

Win!! 🙌

So so true. When will product teams put usable above visually attractive when defining what ‘good’ looks like?

In Toronto every home is deemed vacant until proven otherwise. A letter is sent to every house & you're given 3 months to return forms (they got a 96% response rate) Toronto's #VacantHomesTax raised €60m in its first year 2022 #VacantIreland is gateway to #DerelictIreland
