If one extended family was killed in Britain, it'd be the crime of our century. Our population is 69 million. In Gaza, Israel exterminated more than 2,700 extended families. Their pre-genocide population was 2.2 million. Don't forget Gaza 👇

Fined 300 quid a bird. Pathetic. A days grouse shooting is tons more than that.

You clearly don't understand. The freshwater mussell on the bridge is single handedly responsible for all the flooding in Enniscorthy. This is unchallenged on radio so must be true

Permitting free use of Shannon airport to US military, Ireland needs to pay attention to what has happened in Prestwick.

In a field experiment, researchers from the @uni-freiburg.de added lynx and wolf urine and scat to plots of tree saplings, then monitored how wild deer responded. They found that saplings in plots with the predator scents had less browsing damage. Deer also visited these plots less.

This op-ed is full of the tired mistruths the Govnt has spun about the Triple Lock. The piece doesn't raise any questions about what a non-UN mandated 'peacekeeping' mission would involve? Most likely an EU/NATO coalition operating in a conflict zone. www.irishtimes.com/opinion/edit...

Should be Ireland but our never ending FF/FG governments have been weak weak weak on planning and delivery. God knows why people vote for them: on every major issue their do-nothing dogma is hurting us.

This massive Canadian agtech company has put in an application to harvest seaweed from basically the entire west coast. The maps are actually shocking www.gov.ie/en/departmen...

There are very good reasons to be wary of the OPW and their brutalist approach to the design and construction of flood defences. Cc @brendanmulligan56.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/iris...

NEW: Our investigation for @thenerve_news reveals not only that Peter Thiel’s Palantir is completely enmeshed in our critical national infrastructure. It’s also the ‘cloud support’ for our nuclear weapons system 🤯 1/ www.thenerve.news/p/palantir-t...

major case of shooting the messenger, when successive governments have done too little to: (a) cut ireland's emissions enough to make a fair contribution to climate action; (b) protect people and their homes from the climate change that's already locked in

Whenever flooding hits, we hear in detail all about the wrecked homes, livelihoods, property, and related misery. But NEVER the major cause: that Ireland has been totally stripped of the native ecosystems like forest & bogs that would naturally have absorbed the water. share.google/aNF6Fg26wdmB...

Surprise! Britain's most popular newspaper fervently believes that ICE are the good guys. By an extraordinary coincidence, the same newspaper supported the Nazis in the 1930s.

But not in England, where spineless Starmer is too scared to stand up to developers and require them to spend just £35 more per house Utterly pathetic www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Last week a UK national security assessment warned that collapsing ecosystems around the world will trigger conflict and food shortages

We need to get real. Met Éireann is not to blame for flooding damage - poor planning, building on flood plains, not implementing over 20 years of remedial action are. We were warned decades ago winter rain would increase, but continued doing nothing and built on space needed for water #spéirghorm

Funny how American nativists are so hateful of actual Native Americans. share.google/NwWO3lKi84lV...

Same Tory MPs, same austerity-led ideology, same failure.

We’re not serious about tackling flooding as long the arterial drainage scheme continues to be treated as untouchable. It was built for mid‑20th‑century land drainage, not 21st‑century climate change charged flooding. Its time to store flood water in flood plains not in towns.

The Irish Government blaming our Met Service for our weather - having failed miserably on flood relief & protection - is some next level gaslighting. You dont need a weather man to know which way the wind blows.

Think about how corrupt and incompetent many Trump appointees are. Think about how many appointees depend on flawed chatbots. Now think about those people and chatbots *rewriting the rules for nuclear safety and security* - while asking nuclear companies to tell them what to do. This is not okay.

Killer scoop:

“Reform offers the politics of hate & division…People deserve better than the worst….People deserve good - people deserve excellent representation - that’s how we make hope normal again” Yes @zackpolanski.bsky.social! 🔥🔥🔥

Late last year the government designated 466 rivers as 'highly modified', meaning they will continue to be dredged for the purposes of agriculture, ensuring towns and villages face greater flood risk www.irishtimes.com/ireland/2026...

"Fossil fuel, meat + livestock producers have been funding far-right movements to stifle environmental protection measures that would reduce their profits. Such funding is a major driver of the fascistic politics that we now witness in the US." Explains *so much* going on in the world right now.

Doh! ⬇️

Madrid points to 'positive impact' of migration as it moves to grant 500,000 undocumented people legal status.

Meanwhile Israel plans for such ‘legal executions’. ⬇️

A weird kind of end game ⬇️ Totally ignore nature-based solutions to flood risk management The only game in town is concrete pouring and dredging (ignoring flood plains) End product: more and more flooding of homes & businesses. Age of stupid.

It’ll be dredge the Irish Sea next!

They mentioned what we can do next - like flood defences. They forgtot to mention all the things we are doing which contribute to climate change. It is still full speed ahead on LNG, nitrates derogation, road building...

Sure but even on flooding the proposition is that more of the same flood relief measures around towns will work & that the issue is the Freshwater Pearl Mussel. When in reality we need to rethink how we manage land from source to sea.
