@john_mcguirk Alright Maude Flanders with the faux outrage!
Did you know that leftovers that are actually eaten is pretty much the definition of reducing food waste?
So you outed yourself as actually fighting the good fight.
Keep on trucking brother.
@2Otoole4School@eimer_mcauley@thejournal_ie “we are lucky enough to have full-time creche daycare, the creche’s opening times aren’t long enough for me to do a nine hour shift plus four hours of commuting”.
Seek first to understand is always a good starting point @2Otoole4School
@BligheDerek wherever the driver is from they should face full rigours of the law.
Hijacking our tragedy for entertainment for racists is not very Tullow.
Owners of the centre have done a huge amount for Tullow. IPAS residents have volunteered for multiple community projects
Lost at how folks decided hatred of the Deposit Return Scheme is something to define yourself by.
Our club hosted ~ 60 kids for a blitz this morning. A few years ago tidying up would have been 30 mins. There was one plastic bottle and I donated it to the GAA club collection.
@jamesplloyd I’ll admit that my calm and considered position regarding the mandatory recycling of all Ford Raptors means I may have some cognitive bias. (Recycling can be interpreted as blowing up)
@jamesplloyd Whipping boys of the last government?
- Public transport use increased significantly. Fare caps and the improvement of the quality of the fleet are at the core of this.
- Rural public transport - the beginnings of a network.
- Retrofit & solar.
- Childcare improvements.
@davidmcw@Keyes 3. Lots of Europe not building enough, but Ireland is shocking. So much of the population still averse to apartments and design like this won’t shift that.
@davidmcw 1. @Keyes is raising some great questions but promoting this just feels off. Design like this creates problems for future generations. As populations age this stuff does not sell you will have pockets of derelictions in towns/cities.
@davidmcw@Keyes 2. Read the comments and host of American folks calling out lacks of lifts and balconies for families and people with disabilities. Essentially “why don’t we build like Europe”.
@jamesplloyd@AskAIB@jamesplloyd Get away the card reader is still in existence? The “product” that resulted in my closing of the bank account I had since birth. Apparently I was the first customer to ever complain about the app as well!
@jamesplloyd Love the product and Shopify has some great people, but things never felt the same after being told someone’s “Expansion Pack” would arrange a meeting with me!
@colinalewis@veryrobert@joehas@adrianweckler Kept an AIB account that was opened for me at birth for 13+ yrs living abroad. When I could not longer make a transfer to my Dad without the card reader I called it at day. Was told by management at local branch that they had never heard anyone complain about the reader or app!
@paddy_lark@rtenews You will never admit it, but it is proving to be a huge success. The latest Irish Business Against Litter survey results, published in June, showed a 30% reduction in drinks cans thrown away and 20% reduction in plastic bottles on streets due to the introduction of the scheme.

@DavidMarra@muir2021@vetlocumtvi@philipnolan1 There seems to be overlap between angry folk who cannot cope with the caps being secured and this.
There also seems to be no long term thinking or period for assessment.
@DavidMarra@muir2021@vetlocumtvi@philipnolan1 It is not a tax. The funds are ring fenced for recycling and environmental initiatives.
Deposit/Return reduces litter wherever it exists and is beginning to work here as well.
This is my local football pitch. Most weeks I would stay behind for 15 mins picking up people
