Budget Day in Ireland. Seems like greyhound racing did well: sadly can't say the same for climate action.

Attractive older terraced housing in Brighton, close to where we debated the housing crisis. We need to: -increase supply -control rents -limit financialisation -tackle under-occupation

Plans for the streets around Dublin's Fruit and Vegetable Markets look good, though I suspect a few bollards may be required. Have your say: engage.dublincity.ie/en-IE/projec...

Passing through London on a #Sailrail trip to a European Greens Committee meeting in Brussels. Picked up a leaflet for @ZackPolanski.bsky.social campaign for @GreenParty.org.uk in the Holborn and St Pancras by-election. Better housing, climate action, Gaza justice, what’s not to like?

Nice news from the Netherlands: Youth wing of Progressief Nederland (PRO) @protestpolitiek.bsky.social, the new party formed through the merger of PvdA (PES) and GroenLinks @europeangreens.eu will join the young European Greens @fyeg.org as full members 💚 europeangreens.eu/news/dutch-s...

Fairer fares? Absolutely! That’s why Greens, SocDems, Labour and People Before Profit were at Dáil Éireann today, calling on Transport Minister Darragh O’Brien to reverse the proposed 15% increase in public transport fares in #Budget2027. Madness!

The cost-of-living crisis is being exacerbated by Europe’s dependency on imported fossil fuels. The faster we shift towards renewables the sooner citizens will feel the benefits. #SOTEU2026 europeangreens.eu/news/reactio...

Nail-bitingly close election in Sweden, it will take days for the final result. The increase in votes for our @EuropeanGreens.eu member party Miljöpartiet de Gröna could make the difference between inclusive policies or the politics of fear.

Not cool: that's why 40,000 of us marched in Amsterdam today; for climate justice, less delays and an end to back-sliding on action for climate. #klimaatmars

In Government the Greens cut average fares by 20% and slashed prices by 50% for young adults. Don't hike prices in a cost of living crisis Minister Darragh O'Brien.

A cost of living crisis, and the Irish Government increases bus fares to subsidise petrol and diesel for motorists? You got to be joking! www.greenparty.ie/news/greens-...
