@AmandaJBrunker @GalwayCycling No, I think that is an unfair statement. I've been travelling down that part of the Clonskeagh roads for years & it always has been busy with cars.

The infrastructure makes it far safer for pedestrians and cyclists now. More cars and roads just adds to the problem, not fixes it.

@naoiseoc @fiannafailparty Don't mind these haters and trolls Naoise! All the best on the 29th!

The @Irishheart_ie is enormously grateful to Minister @DonnellyStephen and @ColmBurkeTD for increasing the legal age of sale of tobacco to 21. It's another nail in the coffin of Big Tobacco and will have a huge long-term impact on Ireland's toll of 12 deaths a day from smoking.

@CanYaHackett @dlrcc @PollinatorPlan I noticed that also in Deerpark and was shocked. messaged all the DLRCC councillors to inquire why it happened. A number of them will follow up with parks department, but one really helpful GP councillor told me it may be part of the meadow management.

Very proud that the @Irishheart_ie signed up to this @DublinCommuters letter.

#Dublin as it stands is an unhealthy city.

Vital we implement the Transport Plan & other measures that priorities active travel so that we build a safe, healthy, & sustainable city @DubCityCouncil

[Dublin Commuters @DublinCommuters]

Dublin Commuter Coalition have sent a letter to the DDC CEO Richard Shakespeare, calling for an emergency meeting to discuss the planned Transport Plan being watered down and potentially delayed.

Please read below and share widely.

Glorious sunny day on the new Dodder cycle lanes. More of this please #Dublin #bikelife

[Mark Murphy @MarkMurfIre]

@maxrushden @guardian_sport @bglendenning @NickAmes82 @NickyBandini @danbardell No question, just a comment. When Barry was hilariously tried to pronounce the 3rd division German team yesterday, it sounded to me like “They took our jobs/They durk ur jurbs!” from South Park. Very funny

@GraceOSllvn @GreensEFA @europeangreens @greenparty_ie A big loss for Ireland. Thank you for all the hugely positive work you put in over the last five years.

[Mark Murphy @MarkMurfIre]

@ciaranahern This is great to hear. All parts of Dublin should be safe, fair, and accessible to those who choose to walk, cycle, wheel, and take public transport

[Mark Murphy @MarkMurfIre]

@HonoreKamegni @artfotoglobal @CorineNgan95355 @CorkGreens @greenparty_ie @GreensEFA @europeangreens @GraceOSllvn The highlight of the local elections for me!Well done Honore!

Hugely deserved and you’ll make a great councillor

[Mark Murphy @MarkMurfIre]

The last thing #Dublin City centre is more cars and car parks.

Cities are for people and in order to have any kind of flourishing, healthy city, it needs to prioritise #walking, wheeling, public transport and #cycling

Not cars, they are unhealthy for human and planetary health

[The Irish Times @IrishTimes]

O’Leary suggested that authorities should be building car parks in the city centre to cater for the growing numbers who in the future will use electric cars to commute to Dublin.

@OlaLN Very exciting! Hopefully Brent does come on board, and the wider country can follow the steps of Limerick.

We definitely need more directly elected majors in Ireland, starting with Dublin

[Mark Murphy @MarkMurfIre]

Very sad to see @CiaranCuffe not be re-elected.

The best, hardest working, MEP going who put climate first. #Dublin will miss him as an MEP.

[Ciarán Cuffe @CiaranCuffe]

It's been a pleasure and a privilege to serve as Dublin's Green MEP for the past five years. Thanks to all who helped me on the way.

The future of our common home is bigger than one person, one party, or one election. I wish all who serve the best for their time in office.
