Once upon a time
The people of Ireland
Looked out their windows
To see decay & dereliction
& they said
There is a raw beauty in this
So they instantly decreed
To let their country crumble
Before their eyes
& those of their children
& grandchildren
This is #DerelictIreland
Call it out

Last orders for courgette bread and Red Velvet cake — High costs force Galway’s famous Goyas bakery to turn off ovens after three decades

If small independent businesses are even struggling in bustling Galway we need a big rethink on how we do things in 'Ireland Inc'.

Irelands still rewarding land hoarding
8 yrs into a housing crisis
No wonder so few voted

"our collective hope of solving the housing crisis in the next government is low. This could lead many to a despair-induced apathy towards the election"

Opinion: If housing is the election issue then dereliction should be near the top of that list
Irish dereliction is the result of failed political policies, say Jude Sherry and Dr Frank O’Connor.

All laudable but this thinking needs to become mainstream policy, not niche. If we are to save our built environment we have no option.
