The Green Party condemns the unilateral and illegal action of the U.S. in attacking Venezuela.
The most pressing humanitarian issue is the welfare of people in Venezuela and to protect against violence and unrest in the country in response to the actions of the U.S.

Millionaire landlord Michael Healy Rae doesn't think there should be a new law on short-term letting.
I think each council should be able to set its own rules on short-term lets in their area, but they need the power to enforce those rules. In Dublin, we need long-term rentals.

Great to see so many Green members at the march for #ClimateAction in Dublin yesterday.

The recent attack at the IPAS centre in Drogheda is shocking, but not surprising. Nor is the silence from those who shout the loudest about protection of women and children.

Well done to Dublin city council for this initiative. It's badly needed. I"d love to see it replicated across the country.

This is the result of losing a Green voice in Govt. FF/FG only pay lip service to climate action. When decisions get tough they fold like a house of cards.
The Taoiseach creates a false choice here. Climate Action is about making life better, making energy cheaper, making our atmosphere cleaner.
But that requires leadership. We see none from this Government.

Another example of this budget rolling back on their commitments
Despite ambitious promises in their manifestos and Programme for Government, the Government parties have failed to invest adequately in childcare in this Budget cycle.

A real missed opportunity for targeting the small businesses that really needed it. #budget26
It's official. They're giving big restaurant chains a massive tax cut, costing nearly €700m in the #VAT cut to hospitality.

For that kind of money you could:

👨‍👩‍👦‍👦 Bring in a second tier of child benefit - lifting 55,000 children out of poverty
🚌 Make public transport free

Ireland's enviable budget surplus should be spent on essential capital infrastructure - that includes projects like DART+ and Metrolink, but also investment in public-built housing, water and energy infrastructure.

A big blanket VAT cut? It's a bad idea. Better to give smarter, more targetted supports for cafes and restaurants.

We've set out a way to give more to small businesses while spending about a third of what the government are planning.

Be smart: do more, spend less!

The appalling attacks on migrants happening across Ireland need to stop.

These are just some of the recent attacks that the Indian and Pakistani communities in Ireland have faced.

If you see racism, please call it out. They will only get more brazen if they continue to get away with it.
