An otter swims right by me as I waded the River Bride in Blackpool this morning. I was so caught by surprise that I could not get my phone camera working. The OPW and Cork City Council plan to bury this entire stretch of river underground. Jack Chambers gave it the go ahead. #cork

What are Irish values? Letting childern die in agonising pain? Destroying nearly all our nature? Making sure most kids grow up with no hope of getting their own home unless they emigrate or have rich parents? Handing over resources to corporations & giving them their own courts to sue our democracy
