📢🌳🚶🚲 Have your say on DLR Connector! DLR Connector would see 6km of new segregated cycle lanes and walking facilities and an upgraded public realm. I really like it, but the Council want to hear what you think about it: evadowling.ie/dlrconnector Consultation closes July 15

Someone dies on Irish roads every two days. If the same was happening on Irish Rail, Bus Éireann or Aer Lingus, we’d have a national enquiry, with services suspended until safety could be guaranteed. But on our roads? We’ve somehow learned to live with the carnage. We shouldn’t.

This is the altar at St Bride’s Church on Fleet Street in London which honors journalists and media workers killed in action. In the past 18 months it has added a bench to accommodate lists of the names of all those killed reporting in Gaza.

Trump is saying this while his close allies Orbán and Fico continue buying russian energy, and while Exxon is quietly holding talks with Rosneft about returning to russia. He’s clearly looking for excuses not to sanction russia. He’s not acting in good faith

After six months of promising to hold Putin accountable “in two weeks,” Trump now sets extremely unrealistic conditions he knows can’t be met, simply to have an excuse not to impose new sanctions on Russia. Trump won’t ever upset his boss, Putin.

New DART and Luas lines, which ALREADY HAVE planning permission, are being delayed 4-5 years. This is a direct consequence of the Government’s decision to spend less on public transport.

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.

Another example of the stalling of public transport expansion - this time in West Dublin. The Churchfields development already has people moving in, but their bus service is totally inadequate. And as it stands, there will be no improvement in bus access for another ~18 months.

The government has paused expansion of public transport. BusConnects in Dublin, Cork etc. along with new LocalLink routes for rural areas are all now at risk. Happy New Year from FF, FG & Lowry!

What a great idea to allow leasing of modest electric cars for five years, aimed at people who need to drive to work and have limited transport alternatives. A proposed new “On the Move” scheme for EV social leasing greenparty.ie/news/greens-pr…
