Anyone else feeling that "it would only take a very small push for me to leave Dublin" energy atm? The city nearly is unliveable in unless you're on a very high wage, services don't work and infrastructure is terrible compared to other European cities. 😢

A @GardaTraffic car sailed past immediately after I took the first photo. Zero enforcement on the N11 between RTÉ and the UCD flyover. @DublinCommuters @dublincycling

@deegandeegan11 @ShaneBeattyNews @lstwrd I can't afford to not live in Dublin. The employment opportunities for certain industries outside of Dublin are nil.

. @katya_zamo strongly asserting to @trixiemattel that 'things don't have to be sandwich or not sandwich' has thrown me into a hole of existential wonderment. Thank you @KatyaAndCraig

An actual headline in an Irish newspaper in the year 2017. Toxic church-state relationship needs to end. #NMH #ourhospital #repealthe8th

Yeah Caple Street is now car free, but you can't move for Dublin City Councillors taking photos.

Its always reassuring that no matter how embarrassing Irish politics is, what the UK have to put up with in terms of cringe is 1000 times worse.

He's still a TD and on an extremely significant salary?? Being able to make the choice to resign (uncompelled) into that position is hardly a massive win for public ethics.

@DubCham @Dublin_ie Work with property owners to audit the space they have on above-ground floors/vacant shops and develop a plan to convert the space into affordable/social homes (CC @CualannO ). It would create a permanent city center population to support existing businesses and create new ones.

The responsibility for the turnout at this far right shitshow is at least part the fault of those involved in #golfgate . It feeds right into the "elite" narrative of the organisers and the lack of real consequences for those who were in Clifden makes it worse.

The state is actively failing it's human rights obligations by not providing accommodation for those seeking international protection and now the police force are destroying their tents. This is absolutely beneath contempt.

This morning, a dozen Gardaí arrived at the International Protection Office in Dublin and attempted to clear out homeless asylum seekers living in tents. These homeless people were harassed, pulled out of their tents and told to leave the area.

Could you imagine if people had been been ringing alarm bells about this since 2017 and the Department of Health and Holles Street/St. Vincent's had been ignoring them or denying there was an issue and minimising it? 🙃

“This project has gone on far too long for us to be looking to do something fundamentally different right now." @DonnellyStephen told us in July. The reason it has gone on far too long is because this is the wrong project. Time for Plan B. #MakeNMHOurs

This is fucking heartbreaking @roisinmurphy . Especially from someone who is meant to be an ally. Please speak to some Trans orgs before you come out with nonsense like this.

How disappointing of @roisinmurphy . The (along with her talent of course) the queer community has basically maintained her career. This will break plenty of fans hearts and is factually incorrect. So upsetting.

Members of the Garda Public Order unit are at the scene of a hotel outside Roscrea in Co Tipperary, where crowds have gathered to protest the arrival of three families seeking asylum.
