In an #GE24 election where #climate is a buried agenda and little mainstream recognition of need to face challenge of rethinking cities - our neighbour Paris is leaping forward in shaping a #climate-just city (ten years of work showing results).

Just came across some random snaps, including this lovely house in #Marino with rare original #fenestration. For more on how and why these houses were built, visit www.housingthepeople.ie or see the exhibition "in the flesh" at @dculibrary.bsky.social in DCU O'Reilly library #LocalAuthorityHousing

For lovers of snow ❄️ I give you the greatest snow ball fight in history. In 1854 300 people including stock brokers went into snowy battle at Liverpool’s Exhange. The Liverpool Mercury reported “Hats flew away, By the force of the ball, From heads that were grey, Or with no hair at all”.

Refurbishing an old building is subject to full VAT, but it isn’t if you build a polluting new one. The government’s priorities are all wrong You can damn oil companies, abuse cars, insult nimbys, kill cows, befoul art galleries. But you must never, ever…
