"ETSC regrets that Ireland has stepped back from a clear national default. International experience shows why a default works."

A reminder that 85 of our urban areas are clearly defined & default could be implemented immediately in those cities and towns.

Leaked internal documents from Germany’s Defense Ministry reveal that Berlin coordinated its testimony with Israel ahead of its April 2024 appearance before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) where Nicaragua accused Germany of complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza through arms exports.

🇮🇪 Presidential Election Day

1918 was the first time Irish women were permitted to vote, & even then only ~women over 30 who owned property~

Is é do vóta do ghuth 🗳️ #Aras25 #SpeirGorm

In a meeting today, Sidsel Birk Hjuler pointed out a facet of motonormativity that even I had failed to see: why do we talk about people using people-sized vehicles as MICROmobility? How did people driving around with 4 empty seats get normalized as "mobility"?

Why has this not been done? There is no mention of any accounting for this at all. Are Galway County Council
trying to pull a stroke?

The public and planners deserve better and more complete information than what has been presented here.

Jane Humphries, Chief Superintendent of the Garda Roads Policing unit, said SUVs are more dangerous because of “simple physics”.

Great to see this messaging from @garda.ie.

Why has there been no awareness campaign on SUVs from the #RSA??

The High Court is due to rule on the Strand Road Cycle Route case on Friday 11th April. Whatever the result we want to see the route progress without delay.

Join us at 6pm on the 11th at Grand Canal Square for a cycle along the route to demand safe cycling infrastructure.
