Tomorrow is bye-election day in Galway West!

many who have been out canvassing in Dublin Central now see the Green Party councillor Janet Horner as a dark horse. "Janet's name is coming up more and more on the doors," one person from another party said. @janetphorner.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/news/spotlig...

It was a wet weekend, but Janet Horner's supporters came out in great numbers to go canvassing with her because she would make such an excellent TD for Dublin Central. Give her your number 1 vote on May 22nd! @janetphorner.bsky.social

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.

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

The government passed a law this week that will allow them to exempt infrastructure projects from environmental considerations - gutting the Climate Act. So why did the Social Democrats support them?

Funny how much can change in just one month? The Socdems have completely changed their tune on the Critical Infrastructure Bill and the damaging impact it will have on our climate. Here are some of them speaking out against this bill last month, before voting it through yesterday.

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.

Bobby Lambert of Wexford Green Party was a panelist at Feeding Ourselves in Cloughjordan Tipperary today. He and other panelists called for building on Basic Income for Artists (introduced by the Green Party) to advocate for Basic Income for Local Food Producers, as steps to Universal Basic Income.

Big claims, but a weak case presented by the airlines this week on the Dublin Airport passenger cap. EU legal opinion is that the passenger cap is likely lawful. The “Open Skies” argument is untested and unproven. What sounds convincing… isn’t holding up in court.

I joined Galway Palestine Solidarity Campaign at Pearse Stadium today - the GAA have to pay thier bills, but the sponsors they chose reflect the values of those that play and coach. Allianz represents big business funding the Gaza genocide. The GAA can find a better sponsor.

Tipp Greens joined a great group of canvassers for @niallgalway.bsky.social in Galway on Saturday !

Sad news - veg farm in Kilkenny is closing down, just when we need to have a resilient agricultural sector and be capable of feeding ourselves in an unstable world. www.agriland.ie/farming-news...

This fine sends a clear message to land owners who destroy the habitats of wildlife and biodiversity on their lands - well done to Alan Moore and Hedgerows Ireland for pursuing this effort to defend our wildlife in Tipperary www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/co...

Well done to Alan Moore and Hedgerows Ireland for standing up for our Tipperary wildlife against Coolmore, and getting this far www.irishtimes.com/crime-law/co...

Did you know that more people can now vote in Seanad election? Register before the 26th of February here: seanadvoter.ie @rodericogorman.bsky.social @younggreens.ie @evadowling.bsky.social @janetphorner.bsky.social

What’s our take, pt.2? Stop funding the 1%. ➡️ fyeg.org/fair-money-f... No to an agricultural plan that funds factory farms and big corporations while 800 small farms shut down every single day in Europe. Sign the petition and tell politicians negotiating this: we need socially just agriculture.

Debunking the EU's toxic relationship with agriculture ⤵️ A third of the EU's budget is funding agriculture through the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). And still, farmers spread potatoes throughout the streets of Brussels one month ago in protest. What's that all about?

We are proud to announce that our chairperson Cllr @janetphorner.bsky.social will be running in the Dublin Central by-election Read more about how she'll be a force for good in this campaign here: greenparty.ie/news/green-p...

As well as being on Bluesky here @greenparty.ie, the Green Party Comhaontas Glas now have an official presence on Mastodon! mastodon.ie/@greenparty_ie Follow if you're in the Fediverse already, and if not, join Mastodon ! We need to move away from US and Chinese controlled social media platforms !

One week since @greenpartyie.bsky.social members joined the National March for Climate Action ✊ As #COP30 negotiations are deadlocked without agreement, we need to keep the pressure on to ensure the Irish Government, the EU and world leaders commit to and deliver real, fair climate action.

Tomorrow afternoon, as COP negotiations continue in Brazil, the Green Party will be one of over 60 groups and organisations coming together to march through the streets of Dublin calling for climate action, now! We hope to see you there!

The Irish fossil fuel industry welcoming a politician on board as their paid lobbyist. Until recently he was Fine Gael's spokesman on Climate Action. In many democracies this wouldn't even be legal, let alone acceptable.

Tipperary Green Party members and other Connolly campaign supporters had the honour of meeting President elect Catherine Connolly at Nenagh Arts Centre fundraiser for C-Saw yesterday evening. Catherine gave an inspiring speech.

The pollution of Lough Derg is devastating. Let's support the long-standing work of Green Party's Iva Pocock and Grace O'Sullivan @graceosullivan.bsky.social in raising awareness on this, including organizing the mentioned talk www.irishtimes.com/environment/... Let's save our lake. #SaveLoughDerg

Delighted that Local Link bus 854 Nenagh-Toomevara-Moneygall-Cloughjordan-Shinrone-Roscrea doubling frequency from Monday 31st March, extending to Ballybrophy & Silvermines. Legacy of Greens in last Gov lives on. Kudos to Anthony and all at Local Link Tipperary. locallinktipperary.ie/2025/03/21/t...

Very frustrating for people in Roscrea, Cloughjordan, Nenagh, Birdhill, Castleconnel to get this from @irishrail.bsky.social. We don't get more services for St Patrick's festivities in Limerick, we get fewer. We get no services at all on Sunday, Monday morning or afternoon on bank holiday weekends.

Did you attend Trinity or have your degree awarded by #Trinity? I want to be a strong voice in the Seanad for climate, for equality, and for a better Ireland. I'm asking for your No. 1 vote or highest preference to ensure that we have a strong, progressive voice representing you in the Oireachtas.

Bypass Thurles is idea no 9 of Iva Pocock's Ten Ideas for Tipp. What a different town it would be without all that traffic! mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...

‘Care for Carers’ is idea no 8 of Iva Pocock's "Ten Ideas for Tipp". The Green Party supports pay parity between Section 38 and Section 39 workers. And we are proposing a non means-tested basic income of €325 per week for all carers. We need to care for our carers. mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...

Idea no 7 of Iva Pocock's ‘Ten Ideas for Tipp’ is to create a women’s refuge. There is no women's refuge in North Tipperary. #Women #domesticviolence mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...

Idea #5 of Iva Pocock's Ten Ideas for Tipp is Make Homes over Shops mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...

There’s been a dramatic decline in the water quality of the River Suir in the last decade or so. We need TDs who will fight to resource our new national Water Action Plan. Iva Pocock will be such a TD. mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...

Idea #3 of "Ten Ideas for Tipp" is More Trains & Buses. The Greens in Government have transformed rural public transport. Vote #1 for Iva Pocock to keep delivering More Trains & Buses for Tipperary. mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...

Paying high rent? Scared of being evicted or struggling to find somewhere to live? If your household earns less than €100k there's a Green Party housing solution for you: Cost Rental. Iva Pocock wants to bring it to Tipperary. It's Idea No 2 of her "Ten Ideas for Tipp" mastodon.ie/@TippGreens/...
