I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Worth remembering this 👇🏼. Nowadays with social media this process escalates more quickly, spreads more deeply and is more complex to control and reverse. This is why our hate speech legislation and platform regulation needs to be prioritised!

Ms Saiz said at a news conference after today's cabinet meeting that "we are strengthening a migration model based on human rights, integration, coexistence, and compatible with economic growth and social cohesion".

Lovely to see the snowdrops bloom and tell us Spring is on its way 🏃🏻‍♀️👟🏃🏻‍♀️👟🏃🏻‍♀️

Ireland will experience more flooding events and extreme weather events unless it transitions away from fossil fuels, Met Éireann climatologist Paul Moore has said. https://www.rte.ie/news/2026/0114/1553066-ireland-climate-change/

A frosty one this morning 🏃🏻‍♀️🥶🏃🏻‍♀️🥶🏃🏻‍♀️🥶🏃🏻‍♀️🥶

Very mild for an early January morning 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️🏃🏻‍♀️

Comparing both stories it seems the gov trying to square a circle and failing on the essential infrastructure side #energygrid www.businesspost.ie/article/majo... www.businesspost.ie/politics/exc...

City leaders and local authorities are the front line of defence when it comes to upholding European 🇪🇺 values and proactively implementing progressive solutions to social, economic and environmental challenges 👇🏼

It would seem we need to focus on the economic impact of climate change to get political attention focused on nation states associated inaction. www.irishtimes.com/world/2025/1... by @codohertynews.bsky.social

Great to see the Plan published. Lots of questions re some elements that still need detailing. The EC/EU 🇪🇺 sharing and supporting member states and local authorities is most welcome 🙌🏼

Europe 🇪🇺 needs to realise its potential and start leading again - becoming a proactive agent of change not an observer being led by fear and what ifs 👇🏼 “Cuando Europa pone capacidades sobre la mesa, se convierte en un actor, no en un observador”

Great piece by @codohertynews.bsky.social on communicating climate issues 👇🏼 ‘Recycling plastic doesn’t solve the plastic problem. It just tells people it’s okay to use plastic’ www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

‘The pragmatic purpose of diplomatic networks and development programs is to build alliances that can be relied on in times of trouble.’ A really dangerous approach to defense and the need for a robust ‘prevention is better than cure’ strategy.

Opinion: I'm marching for climate action today. It might seem futile, but here's why it matters jrnl.ie/6871441

Yesterday, the European Parliament’s center-right EPP relied on the support of far-right groups to approve cuts to green rules. It ushers in a different era for the Parliament, in which political pragmatism triumphs over principle. 🔗  www.politico.eu/article/euro...

“Here’s the thing, Bill Gates: There’s no ‘patch’ for the climate crisis. And there is no way to reboot the planet if you crash it. The only safe and reliable way out when you find yourself in a climate hole is to stop digging—and burning—fossil fuels.” — @michaelemann.bsky.social

Climate was a key topic at today's EUCO summit, with some countries fearful the EU’s green targets could leash their economies. Pedro Sánchez disagrees. Speaking to reporters after the talks, the Spanish PM came out in defense of the green rules. Follow along: www.politico.eu/article/eu-l...

The Living City Initiative only works if the property owners have access to the capital needed to undertake the renovation works which can be complex and costly. Hence 👇🏼 www.irishtimes.com/ireland/dubl...

The vote, which passes 178 votes to 169, enshrines into law an embargo that has been in effect since the war began.

“Loneliness and isolation can lead to: 29% increased risk of heart disease; 32% increased risk of stroke; 50% increased risk of developing dementia among older adults; and 60% increased risk of premature death.” Surgeon General recommends designing cities to create more connections. #WalkableCities

“Fine-particulate air pollution can drive devastating forms of dementia by triggering the formation of toxic clumps of protein that destroy nerve cells as they spread through the brain, research suggests.” “Unlike age or genetics, this is something we can change.”
