Niall Murphy has polled 1,199 first preference votes in #GalwayWest - go raibh maith agaibh don tacaíocht! @niallgalway.bsky.social

Our stellar candidate Janet Horner has come third on first preferences in #DublinCentral! @janetphorner.bsky.social

There’s still time

We want justice for Yves Sakila. There is no black. There is no white. We are human. No more of this in Ireland. No one should ever take the law into their own hands.

What are you doing? Put down that cup of tea and get to your polling station!

Final canvas as the sun sets on the #DublinCentral bye-election campaign. We’re so proud of everything that @janetphorner.bsky.social and @niallgalway.bsky.social have achieved so far. A heartfelt thank you to both teams and to everyone that volunteered.

We 💚 our @niallgalway.bsky.social!!! If you value integrity in your politicians then vote 1 Niall Murphy in Galway West

#justiceforyves @cllrhonorekamegni.bsky.social spoke brilliantly today at the rally outside Leinster House

If elected as a TD, Janet Horner will lead on George's Dock becoming a public amenity once again - a place for swimming, recreation, and community in the heart of our city. She took am early morning trip into it this week! @janetphorner.bsky.social

I'm not saying you should vote for people based on how funny they are, but it's not an insignificant fact that one candidate in Dublin Central seems capable of normal human humour (bonus that they also are on top of the detail of policy & profoundly committed to the area...)

The government's new rules that let landlords increase rents higher than before has led to... ... rents increasing faster than in almost a quarter century. On average €40 a month extra for each bedroom in the rental, in the space of just 3 months.

Public lands should be put to public use❗ That's what @janetphorner.bsky.social says - and that includes some semi-aquatic aquatic areas too!

Be a smartie-Vote Green

Hannah likes lots of smarties, but the best decision right now is to choose the Green one 🟢 Vote Janet Horner #1 in Dublin Central @janetphorner.bsky.social

“I’ve seen a bit of [Green Party candidate] Janet Horner as well and I like her. The Green Party kind of has to rebuild now, but if there’s people like that who seem like decent candidates, I think they might have a shot of that.” www.irishtimes.com/politics/202...

Ahead of the @greenpartyni.org's annual conference today, Mal O'Hara has spoken about growing up gay in Belfast, how a trip to an IRA bombing site ‘altered’ his politics, and the type of union he could ‘buy into’ in the event of a border poll www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/politic...

This is why the Green vote in Galway matters

What would the Greens do on cost of living-follow up energy credits by bringing down childcare and electricity bills PERMANENTLY @janetphorner.bsky.social on the 6.1 last night youtu.be/G07x15TKpJw

I was on Galway Bay Fm recently discussing Fox Hunting, and I made the case for banning this cruel 'sport'

Not only am I proud to be on the panel for the launch, but I also encourage everyone to come out and enjoy these family-friendly Africa Day celebrations in Cork from 19th to 23rd of May.

"Women's rights are best represented by women who have a record of delivering them..." Go @janetphorner.bsky.social !!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Minister Darragh O'Brien on @rteprimetime.bsky.social says that new data centres have to be powered by 80% renewables under new CRU regulation. He forgot to mention that this kicks in after 6 years. Meanwhile these data centres are planning to connect to gas. www.rte.ie/player/serie... 1/2

Disappointing to see the SocDems and Sinn Fein ally with the Government last night to undermine the Climate Act. Now that FF and FG are clearly rowing back from our climate commitments and ambition on renewable energy, opposition parties should be scrutinizing their actions, not supporting them.

Last night @rodericogorman.bsky.social an appeared on @tonightvmtv.bsky.social tv and was asked about Bertie Ahern's comments on immigration and what they mean for the Dublin Central Bye-Election. 27s

This is disappointing, especially from @social-democrats.bsky.social @westcorksocdems.bsky.social. There’s no social justice without climate justice, there’s no social justice without an end to expensive car dependency and there’s no social justice in a fossil fuel dominated system.

Sinn Fein and Soc Dems vote with FF and FG to gut the Climate Act. The days when everyone pretended to care about the environment are over...

“This vote is a mistake. It upends our planning system & undermines the law underpinning our country’s climate ambition. “It is astonishing that parties of the left would endorse a Bill which undermines the very Climate Action Act that they supported only 5 years ago” @rodericogorman.bsky.social

When the repeal referendum was decisively passed, Ireland understood that we were listening to women, finally. But the continuation of the three-day rule doesn’t do that. Instead, it carries on the paternalistic view that a woman does not know her own mind.

The Government is proposing levies on different Departments to combat overspending, while also floating the idea of tax cuts during by-election season - how much of this is electioneering? 🤔

In today's @irishexaminer.bsky.social We have all the statutory targets; rewetting, woodland, marine, free flowing rivers, but then there’s the really tricky bit; winning hearts and minds, writes @malcolmnoonan.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

Hang it in the Tate

Great fun day Pedal parade deputising for @dubcitycouncil.bsky.social Lord Mayor to Pedal Power Dublin Festival with @ibike.ie Creative Bees & Butterfly theme from @pedalpartyparade #bikeweek interviewed by @rtenews at festival about the huge range of events to suit everyone! #bicycle #bikelife

The Liffey is an icon of Dublin, but it’s also a dividing line. It divides the north from the south. There’s politicians in this election who want to further that division. But I don’t think that’s what we are about. When you’re on the Liffey you can see clearly that we are one city and one river.

@niallgalway.bsky.social and @malcolmnoonan.bsky.social hoping to swing some Green votes in Knocknacarra

youtu.be/JCp-nytv69o Vote @greenparty.ie’s @janetphorner.bsky.social number 1 in upcoming #DublinCentral bye election and then #VoteLeft for Labour, SocDems etc. For a kinder more caring and more sustainable Ireland! Thank You 🙏

💚💚💚

The Taoiseach is tired of hearing how useless his Government have been on renewables without the Green Party...so make him listen with your vote! #greenparty #greensdeliver #janethorner #niallmurphy #dublincentral #galwaywest #greenpartyie #hornerinyourcorner #janetfortheplanet

“It’s election day. In Wales, the system is proportional representation. That means every Green vote results in Green Senedd members pushing for replacing council tax and introducing a £1 bus fare and rent controls.” Zack Polanski urges voters to make their vote count and back Green on polling day.

Galway Advertiser, with quotes from me, highlights the impact that the Critical Infrstructure Bill will have on our climate targets www.advertiser.ie/galway/artic...

The D15 Special Education Taskforce Report has finally been published. A huge thanks the parents, educators and campaigners who brought us to this point.

No one can wait 20/40 years for nuclear to become a reality here. Government can do more right now to speed up delivery of renewables Tell them it matters! And if you can Vote Green on May 22nd!

The voter registration deadline for the Dublin Central and Galway West by-elections is midnight tonight. You can check the register here: www.voter.ie #SpeirGorm

There is a tacit acceptance in government that it is better for people to die and suffer serious or life changing injuries on a daily basis on our roads than to interfere with road design, slow traffic or stop bigger and more dangerous vehicles being developed. We deserve better.

V good article: "The reason our European peers have seen a 12 per cent drop in road deaths since 2019 in the same time we have seen a 31 per cent rise in ours is because we simply are not using the evidence-based solutions that already exist." www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2026...

Gerard Hutch’s comments on immigration, particularly singling out the Somali community, are prejudiced, harmful, and straight out of the Donald Trump playbook. #Ireland #Dublin #DublinCentral #NorthInnerCity

As Irish families are hit by a perfect storm of rising costs due to international instability, we cannot ask them to wait another 18 months for plug-in solar - a solution that is already proven to work. The Minister must progress his Department's work on plug-in solar with urgency.
