Proud to be in Galway today for a solidarity meeting with Mayor Helen Ogbu following the racist attacks she experienced. A great turnout from across Ireland. Such a strong testament that we stand together and support each other. Thank you, Mayor Helen Ogbu, for the new Renaissance Galway book.

This Government is looking to hike up the fares of public transport by 15-30% that's on average an extra €200 a year for users which in a cost of living crisis is complete madness! Should you just grin and bear it? "HELL NO!" #publictransport #bus #train #luas #ireland

TikTok says it spends €2 billion on trust and safety. But if they really want to make our kids safer, there’s one simple solution. Turn off the engagement driven recommender for children! It’s time to put children’s wellbeing before social media companies profits. #tech #regulation #socialmedia

We've had two energy crises in four years because Ireland remains dependent on imported fossil fuels. The Green Party's €2.5bn Fossil Fuel Inflation Fund would provide targeted support while investing in retrofits and renewables for lasting energy security. #energy #fuel #climatechange #renewables

According to the CSO Data Centres consumed 23% of Ireland's metered electricity in 2025 and could consume up to 30% by 2030! Time they paid for the bigger share! @greenparty.ie are proposing a levy on Data Centre energy usage. It could raise up to 100 million plus in revenue! #datacentres #budget

The climate and biodiversity crises remain the greatest threat to our society... but most politicians seem to think they are no longer important. Not all problems are environmental problems - but they all present a choice between a short-term fix and a sustainable solution.

Data centres uses 32% of Ireland's total electricity supply but pay almost less than half of the residential rate. So we're effectively subsidizing tech giants during a cost of living & energy crisis. Meanwhile this Govt continues to cheerlead their expansion & continue to fail in their obligations.

_"The Government’s consistent cheerleading for data centre expansion has reached a point of reckless disconnect from the economic reality of Irish citizens... Irish families are paying nearly double the electricity rates of these industrial facilities, effectively subsidizing the massive energy consumption of global tech giants while struggling with a punishing cost-of-living crisis."

Is the Minister for Media, Patrick O'Donovan, going to haul the media in every time he disagrees with their coverage of his Government's mismanagement? It is inappropriate for the Minister to interfere in the independence of media when their reporting does not suit his Government.

The Critical Infrastructure Bill means that projects that definitely will have a climate impact; big energy projects like liquefied natural gas and electricity sucking data centres, these projects will no longer have their climate impact assessed when they're going for planning permission.

Ireland can no longer afford a National Development Plan that merely "aims" for green targets or one that relies on fossil fuels. Green energy independence means that when global conflicts drive up the price of oil and gas, Irish families are protected because their power comes from renewables!

The Shamrock Ceremony suggests Ireland and the U.S. share the same worldview - right now, that simply isn’t true. The Taoiseach should this year focus on diplomatic events outside of the White House in Washington.

25+ years derelict. In Dublin City Council ownership since 2019. No funding from the Department of Housing to rebuild. The two derelict houses on 19 & 21 Connaught Street have been abandoned by the state. They're now structurally compromised and a risk to the neighbouring houses on the terrace.

Statement on Rotunda Hospital Remaining in Parnell Square accompanied by an RTÉ headline Government drops plan to move Rotunda to Connolly Hospital

As a board member of the hospital, I welcome the decision by Government to drop the planned relocation of the Rotunda to Connolly hospital. The Rotunda has been at the heart of Dublin City for over 280 years, and is a key part of the inner city's built and social heritage.

Women deserve quality healthcare, in a hospital that is up to the highest standards. A new planning application must be submitted as soon as possible for the critical care unit expansion, so that mothers and new born babies can receive the care they deserve in an appropriate, fit for purpose setting.
