The brilliant new way to get a personalised architect quality design for the 92% who cant afford an architect. Pass it On

Pass it on!

I don’t have a problem with the UK monarchy and the pomp etc. But I’m proud to live in a country where the head of state stands in an atm queue like everyone else. #uptherepublic

@frankmcdonald60 @BrianGreenArch Here's me reading Ulysses outside Eccles Street with all the gang 1/2

Thanks Frank, all inspired by the giants whose shoulders we stood on; you, Ian Lumley, Living City group et al. @frankmcdonald60 @AnTaisce https://t.co/bFoQU3aF6P

@BrianGreenArch SADD did indeed make a difference, in helping to halt the inner city road plans and saving three Georgian houses in Eccles St with the immortal banner MERCY NUNS PREY NOT!

31(ish) years ago my Dublin Scool of Architecture campadres along with colleagues in UCD TCD NCAD launched agit prop campaigns against the decimation of Dublin. SADD was ahead of its time and may have done the City some service. Featured in today's Irish Times. @frankmcdonald60

@simongerman600 What's County Mayo doing in there? I've never heard it referred to as "Bible Belt".

[Brian O Brien @BrianGreenArch]

I think this nails it. NIMBYISM dressed up as concern (with a whiff of classism too) @frankmcdonald60 https://t.co/md22s8J8do

You got it. Dinosaurs and Curmudgeons out. https://t.co/b8X4bCaNk9

[Brian O Brien @BrianGreenArch]

I'm thinking we need a bike equivalent of SIMI or AA: independent, respectful of evidence, well funded, up on the research, brave, able to lobby and urgent. Political class have failed us. How about next Referendum about right to healthy safe proportionately funded transport? https://t.co/eEhNF9Eb51

[Dublin Cycling Campaign @dublincycling]

This is what it looks like when your city and its councillors fail you.
The Liffey Cycle Route was launched in 2011.
Its design still hasn't been finalised.
We don't expect to see a design from the NTA until later this year.
When will it be built?

Jesus a depressing read. Councillor who can't tell difference between cause and affect, short and long term, consultation v participation and most with an axe to grind https://t.co/Ubue54RXMP

WTF is going on with the BBC. My timeline getting fuller and fuller of accusations of bias and worse. Outrage doesn't explain. Can anyone put this in context, explain the allegation, lay out some evidence? @acgrayling @lesbonner @BBC https://t.co/Q2zE6y6AEZ
