Keeping up with the Joneses Nicholas Lane, Cork City #DerelictIreland

Forget about #COP30 This is where we actually are when it comes to not giving a f*ck about our environment, climate & heritage in Europe And its not a good place We see you @finegael.bsky.social @eppgroup.bsky.social #greenwash #climatewash

CSO have a new project that tracks electricity (under) usage www.cso.ie/en/releasesa...

How about speeding things up by chatting to CSO Ireland to get locations for 72,000 (yep!) vacant dwellings announced in September & apply use it or lose it They should also chat with Revenue to understand why only 2300 properties paid the Vacant Homes Tax #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland

Revenue collecting new derelict tax is step forward Its something @judesherry.bsky.social & I made case for to 2021 @oireachtasnews.bsky.social But it needs to happen straight away, no more excuses or delays, start with existing derelict sites register & build from there #DerelictIreland #Budget2026

Homes not offices Or #DerelictIreland ffud streetart, South Tce, Cork City

Rents rise for council tenants Tax cuts for developers Irish government housing policy summed up #HowIrelandWorks #DerelictIreland

In an era dominated by brand washing its refreshing to see a brand such as Starbucks come straight out with their values

We must admit it seems very truthful 😂

it's a trend #Genocide365

Dereliction is a social crime Never accept it ffud art for #DerelictIreland with @judesherry.bsky.social

Loving the honesty of the new branding by McDonalds

Look at these. A lovely terrace, it could be swarming with life, neighbours having a chat, people going about their business. Instead it’s dreary and dejected, part of #DerelictIreland.

Its an housing emergency Time for use it or lose it in Ireland This should be a home & not a longterm boarded up asset Wasting away, detracting from the local community & area How many families would love to be living here, between St Lukes & Cork city centre #DerelictIreland

Keep eyes on Sudan 🙏 Cork City Ireland now

Solidarity is beautiful ❤️ Cork City Ireland now

A home should never be a boarded up asset negatively impacting the community & environment Its time for use it or lose it so everyone has a home in Ireland Adelaide St, Cork City centre #DerelictIreland

Again today 1pm Grand Parade, Cork City Ireland

🚨 One in every 22 homes in Ireland is either vacant or derelict. GeoDirectory Residential Buildings Report Q2 2025: 🏚️80,328* VACANT homes 🏚️19,821* DERELICT dwellings #DerelictIreland #HousingCrisis In my visualisation, red blocks represent some of the Derelict and Vacant Sites in Dublin City.

Never forget that politicians make people homeless ffud art for #DerelictIreland with @judesherry.bsky.social

There should be no derelict homes, and especially not in a housing crisis.

You wonder why we have a dereliction epidemic in Ireland Wonder no more According to Cork City Council this is not derelict A former family home left rotting for decades is not derelict I rest my case #DerelictIreland

Criminal behaviour when you consider all the negative impacts of this hoarding by dublin city council #DerelictIreland

Its always great to see more signs go up on derelict properties 🤞 This sign motivates the owner to either sell or renovate #DerelictIreland #speirgorm

“Have we all been gaslit by the construction industry? Centralising power among a few politicians & lobbyists risks edging towards autocracy. Access to the courts is not an obstacle to progress – it is a safeguard that allows citizens to hold power to account” www.irishtimes.com/opinion/lett...

Short answer, yes - and by a number of our politicians too. #Housing #HousingCrisis #Homelessness #DerelictIreland #Ireland

This is f*cking disgusting, scandalous greed When so many go hungry & without a home A state body that got €1.7 billion from the state last year pays ridiculous staff bonuses while the company is failing so many including the northside of Cork city where we live #HowIrelandWorks #speirgorm

Never thought I'd see the day Very good news to see work started on this longterm derelict One less empty property & one more home again soon 🤞🏻 Blackpool, Cork City #DerelictIreland

Now THAT'S what I call a headline! 👏👏👏

If dereliction is vandalism then Dublin City Council are vandals & should be treated as such #DerelictIreland

"We don't know what we are doing" Department of Finance says

100% this. The housing crisis just benefits too many landlords to put an end to it. Borders counties, and Leitrim in particular is just abandoned home after abandoned home, just waiting to be fixed up and breathed life into.

Another 15 years No better case for use it or lose it so when it comes to the 180,000+ empty homes across Ireland #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland

It’s certainly a good sign It’s on the council’s radar It might be another year before its officially registered as derelict But this notice might be enough for owner to decide to sell it or to get €70k grant to renovate it themselves #DerelictIreland #Spéirghorm www.corkcity.ie/en/council-s...

@frankoconnor.bsky.social @judesherry.bsky.social This sign recently appeared on a derelict residential property near me recently. Do you know if this is part of a new initiative from the council? Am I naive to be optimistic, and for assuming the city council have a record of property owners?

There’s a little house near me, looks like it’s been empty for years. I saw it in an estate agents window lately, €200k asking price. #DerelictIreland They didn’t use it. Or mind it. Or maintain it. Or sell it. #UseItOrLoseIt

Allowing properties—especially those of architectural heritage—to remain derelict or vacant for decades should be considered a crime against the state. #DerelictIreland #VacantIreland #Cork #Ireland Google Street View: maps.app.goo.gl/nHCmPdYfTZ1m...

It can be done, don’t even have to dream up a new system, just copy 1 that works & adapt it if necessary. Govt rathers crush people than lift them up. Welfare Cheats Cheat Us All, Homelessness, Social Housing, cuts to Welfare, #DerelictIreland all Govt policies aimed at hurting working class.

Two articles in todays @echolive.bsky.social are a harsh reminder its a manufactured housing emergency that is destroying lives when everyone could have a home #DerelictIreland

2.5 years ago Micheal Martin told us Ireland were turning corner on house building but now its all the EUs fault He really is clutching at straws now #HousingCrisis #DerelictIreland

Me & @judesherry.bsky.social are thrilled the poetry (Jennifer Horgan) - film (Philip Denvir) "crossing over barrack street" inspired by #DerelictIreland & based around our street art in Cork won Irish Selection Ó Bhéal Poetry Film competition 2025 yesterday at Cork Arts Theatre Short clip of end ❤️

I'm old enough to remember when criticising the EU was framed as unacceptable Or is it only good to blame the EU when you're scapegoating your own failures #HowIrelandWorks #spéirgorm #everyoneshouldhaveahome

& the Irish Selection Ó Bhéal Poetry Film competition 2025 winner is 👇❤️

When me, @judesherry.bsky.social found 700 derelict properties within 2km of Cork city centre we knew dereliction was normalised with devastating impacts #DerelictIreland a self-organising grassroots movement was born focusing on changing policy, practice, culture, & demonstrating people power works
